Whisper Backup & Restore is a tool to help you back up your text messages and call log information to an email account. To function properly it needs to have full access to various types of private data stored on your phone as well as your email account. Your data is accessed and then transferred to a place of your choice, usually your Gmail account. Whisper Backup & Restore does not store private data on your phone nor does it send it to any other service except the one defined by you. Your usage data is not shared with anybody, there are no ads, analytics or other type of tracking code embedded in the application.
i. The following personally identifiable information is accessed by Whisper Backup & Restore:
The access takes place with the sole purpose of transmitting and storing selected information to provide you with a convenient backup of your data. If you choose to store your text messages in Gmail, the resulting storage and processing is governed by the Google Privacy Policy, see here for details.
To help protect the privacy of data and personal information we collect and hold, we maintain physical, technical and administrative safeguards. We update and test our security technology on an ongoing basis. We train our employees about the importance of confidentiality and maintaining the privacy and security of your information. Access to your Personal Information is restricted to employees who need it to provide benefits or services to you.
Our apps can be configured to automatically upload the backups to your Google Drive account. To facilitate this, Whisper Backup & Restore will request you to allow it to access your Google Drive account on your behalf.

Whisper Backup & Restore can be configured to automatically email the backups using your Gmail account. To facilitate this, the app will request you to allow it to access your Gmail account on your behalf.
Whisper Backup & Restore only uses the access to Gmail to send emails on your behalf and does not use this access for anything else.
If you do not want to store your data in Gmail you have also the option to have your text messages uploaded to an IMAP server under your control; see the “Advanced” configuration option for more.
