Some Tips for WhasApp Settings
Messages between users are protected with an end-to-end encryption protocol so that third parties and WhatsApp’s server itself cannot read them and so that the messages can only be decrypted by the recipient.
All types of WhatsApp messages (including chats, group chats, images, videos, voice messages and files) and WhatsApp calls are protected by end-to-end encryption.
WhatsApp servers do not have access to the private keys of WhatsApp users, and WhatsApp users have the option to verify keys in order to ensure the integrity of their communication.
To add to the privacy level, WhatsApp has said it won't store your messages on its servers once they are delivered. Because of end-to-end encryption, WhatsApp and third parties can't read them anyway.
Your messages are secured with their very own unique lock and key. But what does this mean? Basically that only you and the person you're sending the message to have the special key needed to unlock the message and read it.

The new end-to-end WhatsApp encryption means that no-one can spy on your messages 
WhatsApp official blog has written that  here  

That fact has meant that strong, or end-to-end, encryption has led to public controversy between technology companies and governments. And 

Yes, that’s good news. But there’s a downside to the encryption business too.

And there is  an important reason to do not trust on whatsApp encryption policy that , this company   relies on data mining sale

The Paris attacks by ISIS religious extremists allegedly used WhatsApp and Telegram, both encrypted apps, to coordinate, plan and carry out the attacks. Koum and Acton have touched upon this topic also. They posted, “Recently, there has been a lot of discussion about encrypted services and the work of law enforcement. While we recognise the important work of law enforcement in keeping people safe, efforts to weaken encryption risk exposing people’s information to abuse from #cybercriminals, #hackers, and #rogue states.” While this is all great for us, it does make law enforcement, anti-terrorism and general protection of the public all the more difficult.

Note : Popular messaging app WhatsApp started last week with the intention of creating more secure  messages to consumers , but ,that encryption  could make it Illegal to India because according to TRAI rules since 2007 private companies can not use with more than 40-bits encryption and  WhatsApp is using 126-bits.

WhatsApp, the debate is going to be raging on for months after. It’s quite likely that governments and agencies may move courts against this decision.
