Yesterday WhatsApp announced a huge change in its privacy policy that will see it begin sharing data on its users — such as their mobile phone number and last seen status on the app — with its owner company Facebook, and any other company Facebook owns.

Or you can exercise the partial opt out WhatsApp is offering users for a short period of time.
WhatsApp has already started pushing out the updated terms and conditions. Learn more in Natasha Lomas' article at https://techcrunch.com/gallery/how-to-opt-out-of-sharing-your-whatsapp-info-with-facebook/.
