If you contact us via WhatsApp regarding a specific business transaction (e.g. lesson inquiries or registrations), we store and use the mobile phone number you use on WhatsApp and, if provided, your first and last name in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR to process and respond to your inquiry.
