WhatsApp English Language Terms and Conditions do not bind German consumers – Terms and Conditions must be in German Language, Berlin Court of Appeals rules
The Berlin Court of Appeals has ruled that WhatsApp’s Terms and Conditions do not bind German consumers, as long as they are available only in English and as long as there is no German version or translation (Kammergericht, Urteil vom 08.04.2016, Az. 5 U 156/14, link to the full decision on the Verbraucherzentrale website).
