I can’t access my contact, photos and microphone on any application

Just recently my business WhatsApp and other applications can’t have access to contact, photos and microphone. It will give me option to click on settings and go set it in settings but when I go into the settings there will be no options for me to allow any of the above mentioned i don’t understand I’m really frustrated about this

Trying to send WhatsApp message using siri fails with "it looks like Jo Bloggs doesnt have whatsapp messages enabled" ISSUE I am trying to be able to send WhatsApp messages using siri (i need it working for when i am using CarPlay) When I say "Siri, send whatsapp message to Jo Bloggs", Siri responds with "it looks like Jo Bloggs doesn't have whatsapp messages enabled". Contacts App When I open the Contacts app and go to Jo Bloggs, I do not see a line with "WhatsApp". Whereas on my husbands iPhone (where siri can send whatsapp messages) he does have a line showing "WhatsApp" in a contacts details. Is this the cause of the issue? WhatsApp Settings I do NOT have TouchID or FaceID turned on in WhatsApp. I know with either of these settings on Siri can not send whatsapp messages. I can confirm WhatsApp shows all my contacts which are on my phone, therefore implying the apps are synced. Settings -> Privacy -> Contacts -> Whatsapp IS enabled Settings -> WhatsApp -> Contacts IS enabled Settings -> Contacts -> Siri & Search -> All options are turned on Settings -> Contacts -> i do not see any option here for whatsapp I have tried uninstalling whatsapp and reinstalling turning off/on my phone

Do you have a business or school email account on your phone, or is it remotely managed by a business (MDM)?

Or perhaps parental controls?
