Thank you for using Contacts (“the App”, “we”, “our”, or “us”). Your privacy is extremely important to us, and we are committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy explains in detail how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you use our application.
This policy has been designed to comply with Google Play policies, applicable data protection laws, and best industry practices. By installing or using the App, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy describes how information is handled when you use the Contacts application. Our goal is to provide a useful, secure, and transparent user experience while minimizing data collection to only what is strictly necessary for app functionality, analytics, and advertising.
We respect user privacy and do not misuse personal data. The app primarily works locally on your device, and most of the data it accesses never leaves your phone. Any data collected through third-party services is limited, anonymized where possible, and used only for clearly defined purposes.
This Privacy Policy applies to:
The Contacts mobile application
All features and functionalities available within the app
Third-party services integrated into the app
This policy does not apply to third-party websites, apps, or services that may be linked within the app. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of those third parties separately.
We are committed to data minimization. The app itself does not collect or store sensitive personal information such as contacts, call history, messages, photos, or videos on our servers.
However, limited non-personal and technical information may be collected automatically through trusted third-party SDKs integrated into the app.
We may collect the following categories of information through third-party services such as Google AdMob, Firebase, and Facebook Audience Network:
a) Device Information
Device model
Operating system version
Screen resolution
Language settings
Unique device identifiers (such as advertising ID)
b) App Usage Information
App launches and session duration
Feature usage and in-app interactions
Navigation patterns within the app
c) Diagnostics and Performance Data
Crash logs
Error reports
Performance metrics
This information helps us understand how the app is used, identify bugs, improve performance, and enhance user experience.
We do not collect, store, or transmit the following types of sensitive personal data:
Contact names, numbers, or email addresses
Call logs or call recordings
SMS or message content
Photos, videos, or audio files
Login credentials or passwords
Financial or payment information
All contact-related and call-related data remains on your device and is processed locally.
The app requests certain permissions to function properly. Each permission is used strictly for its stated purpose and only within the app.

All permissions are used locally on your device. No personal data accessed via these permissions is uploaded to our servers.

Caller ID information is processed entirely on the device
No caller information is stored, uploaded, or shared
We do not maintain any caller database

You can disable this feature at any time through app settings or device permissions.
After a call ends, the app may display an after-call screen for convenience.
This screen may show:
Caller details (from your local contacts)
Quick action buttons (call back, message, etc.)
All displayed information is retrieved locally from your device and is never transmitted externally.
To support analytics, performance monitoring, and advertising, we integrate trusted third-party services:

Used for:
Analytics
Crash reporting
Performance monitoring
Used to display personalized and non-personalized advertisements.
These services may collect anonymized device identifiers, usage statistics, and diagnostics data in accordance with their respective privacy policies.

Limited data may be shared automatically with third-party services solely for:
Advertising
Analytics
App performance monitoring
All such sharing complies with Google Play policies and applicable laws.
We do not store personal user data on our servers.
Any data collected by third-party services is retained according to their own data retention policies. Please refer to their privacy policies for more details.

This app is not intended for children under the age of 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided data, please contact us immediately so we can take appropriate action.
We take reasonable and industry-standard security measures to protect user data. While most data is processed locally or by trusted third parties, we ensure that integrations follow strict security guidelines.
However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Third-party services may process data on servers located outside your country. These transfers are conducted in compliance with applicable data protection laws.
We comply with:
Google Play User Data policies
Applicable data protection laws
Industry-standard privacy practices
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected here with an updated effective date.
