If you click the "Open Eye" icon on an order and see a popup about protecting customer privacy, that means the buyer has hidden their phone number.
What this means for you:
- The number is masked by the platform (Shopee/TikTok Shop etc.), not by ChatDaddy
- You can still message the buyer through the platform's own chat
- Order confirmations sent via WhatsApp may not reach them
What you can do: ask the buyer to share their WhatsApp number in the platform chat, or send order updates through the marketplace's messaging instead.
