Okay honestly, its still a pointless discussion, if the policy and terms didn't apply to the EU's strict privacy laws, then WhatsApp WOULDNT BE IN THE EU!

But surprise surprise, it is, meaning it passed the EU's prying eye with no issues.

It also stores the conversations, sent files, and more data... That can be read in their privacy policy.
As for conversation and data, you do realise the all texts/ims/facebook chats/skypes/everything is monitored and if need be can be accessed by anybody with authority to do so such as Intelligence Agencies or Local Police with warrants as well as other random agencies.

Go start a thread in the off-topic section about how you hate that all your data is being 'stolen' It is a price we have to pay to use technology, its not exactly like they can ruin your life, its a phone number :P
