Those of you agonising over messaging privacy will be concerned with the recent modifications to WhatApp's privacy policy.

Fear not, though: Signal isn’t the only alternative for privacy and, arguably, there are even stronger options to vacuum seal your conversations.

T3 pounced on recent news of WhatsApp's new mandatory data exchange with parent company, Facebook, that is leading affected users to flee to the sanctums of Signal.

WhatsApp has tumbled to an E-Rating on Tos;DR. Tos;DR distils long Terms of Service conditions into bitesize privacy takeaways; its new rating reflects critics’ views that the messaging platform is compromising users' privacy, and is regarded as the gold standard for measuring discreet changes to privacy policies across the internet.

But, what options do privacy conscious users have through apps? We’ve handpicked the best WhatsApp alternatives that balance usability, while reinforcing data privacy.

Signal

Signal's name is rightly lauded across the internet for privacy. Despite it being more well known, it's still a great WhatsApp alternative. It retains substantially less metadata than rivals, it's available on multiple platforms, and it has a heritage of being security reviewed, as it's one of the more popular security apps.

One of the main criticisms of Signal, though, is that its support page is CloudFlared. In essence, this means that ultra-security aware users are impeded by a private walled-garden that blocks Tor. Tor, of course, is another level of anonymity that is often used in conjunction with encrypted apps for another layer of cloaking.

However, this may not worry everyday users who don't require this level of concealment. You can opt in to the Signal ecosystem by clicking through to here, and following the steps.

Telegram

Telegram was particularly popular a number of years ago: chat without cost, and security without profit. These all underscored Telegram's commitment to user privacy.

Of course, times change and there are better options available. If you're in the market for a user-friendly platform, though, we suggest signing up to Telegram here. Telegram even lets you move chats from WhatsApp: here's how to do it.

The interface is easy to navigate, and it still has a substantial user-base with more pronounced security benefits than regular messengers, including end-to-end encryption, and the ability to use the app as a more conventional messaging platforms – i.e. sending files and broadcasting to multiple contacts.

Wickr

Dating

Secure messaging services really started to up the ante in the privacy game with the advent of Wickr.

Reportedly, Wickr still doesn't log active IP addresses or Unique Device IDs; furthermore, it heralded a new era of 'burn-on-read' types messages, which let you set the timer for when the messages would expire. This is still a core component of its offering: sign up here to enjoy secure video conferencing and file sharing.

Like Telegram, it has more recently fallen out of favour with the head honchos in privacy groups that analyse these apps, but is still a good solution to those in need of extra privacy layers. It also doesn't log that pesky metadata that leeches onto your data trails.

Threema

Threema is one of the best privacy focused messaging apps in the field. The main advantage of this app is that you can register anonymously, here. As such, it isn’t tied to personal info (unlike your phone number linked to Signal). You can sync your address book and enable a stranger to contact you without revealing your mobile. It's a simple but major element of mobile privacy that is missing in many apps.

It can be used on devices without a SIM-card, even without the existence of a mobile phone number. The encrypted messenger landscape is ever-changing, but using Threema with android is a great option as permissions are decentralised; indeed, they work on a modular basis, so you can install it without enabling camera access, or microphone. We've got you covered at T3 with our ensemble list of the best android phones, that'll help you pick the best hardware to house your security software.

Threema Web even lands a ToS:DR B-Rating, which is reassuring when glazing over T&Cs. It's currently available on all platforms, upping its cross-functionality when switching between devices.

Wire

Wire is a lesser known, but strong contender for the privacy crown. Wire is 100% open source, which means the app is under constant auditing within the community. It has an easy sign up process, which can be found here, and is a very capable encrypted messenger.

Similar to Threema, Wire does not require a smartphone or a phone number, which is crucial to app privacy. End-to-end (E2E) encryption, self-destructing messages, and the implementation of strong encryption algorithms – such as the Proteus Protocol – underscores its privacy elements.

It offers apps for all platforms, which means it's a serviceable privacy solution for multiple devices. If you're in the market for a handset to facilitate your privacy journey, you can separate the wheat from the chaff with our best smartphones guide to guarantee the best device to house your security apps.

WhatsApp has rolled out its privacy changes unceremoniously, so it’s important to look at how the changes impact locality. Users outside of the EU cannot back out of the new data exchange, as GDPR does not offer protections. WhatsApp's Director of Policy, Niamh Sweeney, has said that European countries will be compelled to accept the changes, but without having to share data, including post-Brexit UK.

The truth is that apps can only offer so much in the way of privacy; it appears that the veneer of privacy in some, including WhatsApp, is being quickly deconstructed by relationships with bigger parent companies that crunch data, as part of its model.

These awkward relationships are then no longer viable; other apps, such as Threema, and Wire, are the current sweethearts of the privacy community. However, there is no telling in where the broader adoption of these services will leave the apps: many times between a rock and a hard place, as a company grows and its privacy commitments come under strain.

For now, we recommend Threema, and Wire as solid alternatives, alongside Signal. This privacy whitepaper sheds more light on Wire's metadata footprint, if you want to dig in further. Mainly, though, your privacy efforts can be bolstered by good personal operational security (OpSec), and a general awareness of policy changes through services like ToS;DR.

By clicking on the number you will link to the building description.

Abbey House (1)
VisitScotland Information Centre is located here in a typically Scottish late C18th building.

Harmony Hall (2)
Built in 1807 as home for Robert Waugh a local joiner who had this house built and named after his plantation in Jamaica. Now owned by The National Trust for Scotland (NTS) and gardens are open to the public.

Abbey Mill (3)
The Abbey Mill shop sits on the site of the former Abbey Corn Mill. The mill was built beside a lade which diverted water from the River Tweed to power the mill wheel.

Melrose Abbey (4)
The abbey was founded in 1136 by King David I who brought in Cistercian monks from Rievaulx near York. It was frequently damaged in cross-border raids in C14th; rebuilt in the C15th and again damaged in 1545. Finally restored in 1822 with assistance from Sir Walter Scott and the Duke of Buccleuch, the town owes its existence to the Abbey. As a centre of pilgrimage, houses would have been set up close to the main gate of the precincts for the use of visitors and pilgrims. Now in the care of Historic Scotland.

Priorwood Gardens (5)
The gardens are located immediately adjacent to the NTS shop and once belonged to the Curle family who owned Priorwood House which became the Youth Hostel. Within the gardens are many apple trees some of which are direct descendants of those grown by the monks of the Abbey.

Melrose Town House (6)
Gifted to the Town by the Duke of Buccleuch in 1896

Mercat Cross
Traditionally a symbol of the trading rites of Scottish market towns and villages. This cross was originally the one that had been at the entrance to the Abbey precinct at ‘The Bow’ now Abbey Street. The importance of Melrose as a visitor centre and market town is reflected in the number of hotels located around the square.

East Port (7)
The narrow street by the Ship Inn is East Port, the historic eastern entrance gate to the town.

Former Railway Station (8)
An elegant building which presents a Jacobean facade to the town centre. The station, on a stretch of the famous Waverley Line between Edinburgh and Carlisle, opened in 1849.The railway which once brought visitors and commerce to Melrose was closed in the late 1960's.

High Cross Avenue (9)
A short distance along on the left is High Cross Church built for the United Presbyterian Church in 1866 but became a Roman Catholic church from 1984. Almost opposite is Holy Trinity Episcopal Church designed in the mid 1840's by the famous architect Sir Giles Gilbert Scott.

Tweed Cottage(10)
This was the residence of the pumpman for the Waverley Hydropathic Hotel 500m to the west. The spring water for the hotel originally came from St Helen's Well one of the holy wells - named after saints - which supplied Melrose with drinking water. The cottage built of concrete was originally called ‘concrete cottage’.

The Scaurs
From this path known locally as The Scaurs you can gain a fine view of the River Tweed with The Chain Bridge to the east and Gattonside village on the north side of the river. You are now following the Southern Upland Way and at the bottom of the steps you come to The Cauld where care should be taken as the wall is low and water is fast flowing. Built here across the river by the monks at the Abbey the cauld was used to divert water into the lade to power the mill.

Chain Bridge and Toll House (11)
Opened in 1826, the suspension Bridge crosses the River Tweed to the village of Gattonside. There was also a ford crossing just downstream for horse drawn vehicles.

Melrose Parish Kirk (12); built between 1808-10 and dedicated to St Cuthbert. It replaced the Abbey as a place of worship.

The Greenyards (13)
Originally a marsh which the monks drained and used as a grazing ground for sheep. Nowadays the home ground of Melrose Rugby Football Club.
