Proto's WhatsApp Checkpoint Tipline
“The Checkpoint tipline is primarily used to gather data for research, and is not a helpline that will be able to provide a response to every user.”
Checkpoint is a research project at PROTO, commissioned and technically assisted by WhatsApp. It uses a tipline on WhatsApp (+91- 9643-000-888) only as a means to collect information that is otherwise inaccessible given the nature of private messaging.
