Section 01

1. Purpose & Meta Compliance Notice

In accordance with Meta Developer Policies, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and global privacy mandates, EngageOriga (operated by Origa Network LLP) provides users with total autonomy over their stored data.

When you connect your WhatsApp Business account via Meta's Embedded Signup or log in with Facebook, our platform accesses only the minimum scopes necessary to manage your shared team inbox and message templates. You retain the absolute right at any moment to revoke access and request the permanent erasure of all associated records.

This is our official Data Deletion Request page

As registered in the Meta App Dashboard. Disconnecting a WhatsApp number is instant and self-serve (Method 1). Deleting your full account and conversation history is handled manually by our team once we verify your request (Method 3) — see Section 6 for the exact timeline.

Section 02

2. Scope of Data Eligible for Deletion

A verified deletion request permanently removes the following categories of data from our systems:

Meta Credentials & Tokens

System user access tokens, Meta WABA IDs, WhatsApp Phone Number IDs, and webhook subscriptions.

Conversations, Media & Templates

Customer chat transcripts, media attachments, message templates, quick replies, and team internal notes.

Contact Lists & Profiles

End-customer phone numbers, WhatsApp profile display names, custom attribute fields, and tags.

Team User Accounts

Agent names, work email addresses, password hashes, avatar images, and workspace sessions.

Not included: invoices and payment records, which we retain separately under a statutory exception (see Section 6).

Section 03

3. Method 1: Disconnect Your WhatsApp Number (Instant)

The fastest way to stop EngageOriga from receiving your WhatsApp messages is to disconnect the number directly from your dashboard:

Disconnect WhatsApp Number
  1. Log in to your workspace at /dashboard.
  2. Open Settings and find the WhatsApp connection card.
  3. Click Disconnect and confirm.
  4. Result: we revoke the WhatsApp access token with Meta's Graph API immediately and stop receiving webhook events for that number right away.

Disconnecting a number does not delete your workspace's existing contacts, conversation history, or team accounts — for that, use Method 3 below.

Section 04

4. Method 2: Via Facebook / Meta Account Settings

If you connected EngageOriga via Facebook Login for Business or Embedded Signup, you can remove our app's permissions directly from your Meta / Facebook account settings:

Step-by-Step Meta Removal Guide
  1. 1Open your Facebook or Meta Business Manager account and go to Settings & Privacy > Settings > Apps and Websites.
  2. 2Scroll through your active applications and find EngageOriga (or Origa Automation).
  3. 3Click Remove to revoke our access to your Meta account.

Note: removing the app here stops Meta from sharing any new data with us, but does not by itself delete data already stored in your workspace. To have your account and conversation history fully erased, also submit a request via Method 3 below.

Section 05

5. Method 3: Request Full Account & Data Deletion

To permanently delete your workspace — including contacts, conversations, templates, and team accounts — email our compliance team directly:

Email: privacy@engageoriga.com

Subject Line: Data Deletion Request — [Your Workspace Name]

Please send the request from the email address registered to your workspace account so our team can verify your ownership.

What happens next:
  • We verify you are the registered Workspace Owner.
  • Your workspace is suspended to prevent further access while deletion is processed.
  • Your data is permanently deleted within the timeline in Section 6, and we confirm by email.
Notice: Once processed, this action is irreversible. All team inbox transcripts, contact records, and message templates stored under your workspace will be permanently deleted.
Section 06

6. Purging Timelines & Retention Exceptions
