Privacy Policy — Contacts

Effective Date: [July 29, 2026]

[DEVELOPER NAME] ("we", "our", or "us") operates the Contacts mobile application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our App. By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

We are committed to protecting your privacy. This App is designed so that your personal data stays on your device.


1. Information We Access

To provide its core features, the App requests access to the following information on your device:

Contacts (READ_CONTACTS, WRITE_CONTACTS): The App accesses your device's contact list so you can view, search, add, edit, organize, and share your contacts. Your contacts are processed locally on your device only.

Call Logs (READ_CALL_LOG): The App accesses your call history so it can display your recent, incoming, outgoing, and missed calls within the App. Call log data is used for display purposes only.

Phone (CALL_PHONE / Default Phone Handler): The App may request permission to make phone calls and to act as your default phone/dialer app so you can place and manage calls directly from the App.

⚠️ [OPTIONAL — agar app me WRITE_CALL_LOG hai ya call log delete feature hai to ye line rakhna, warna hata dena:] Call Log Management (WRITE_CALL_LOG): If you choose to delete call log entries within the App, the App will modify your device's call log only as instructed by you.

Important: Your contacts and call history are stored and processed only on your device. We do NOT collect, store, transmit, or upload your contacts or call logs to our servers or to any third party.


2. Information We Do NOT Collect

We do not collect, sell, or share:

  • Your contact list or any contact details
  • Your call history or call recordings
  • Your SMS messages
  • Your precise location
  • Any personally identifiable information such as your name, address, or government ID

3. Automatically Collected Information

When you use the App, certain non-personal information may be collected automatically by third-party services integrated into the App:

Advertising (Google AdMob): The App displays advertisements served by Google AdMob. AdMob may collect and use device information such as your device's advertising ID, IP address, device type, and general (coarse) location to serve ads, including personalized ads where permitted. You can opt out of personalized advertising in your device settings under Google → Ads → Opt out of Ads Personalization.

⚠️ [OPTIONAL — agar Firebase Analytics/Crashlytics use karte ho to rakhna, warna hata dena:] Analytics (Google Firebase): We use Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics to understand how the App is used and to identify and fix crashes. This may include device model, operating system version, app version, and anonymized usage statistics. This data does not identify you personally.

4. How We Use Information

The limited information described above is used only to:

  • Provide and maintain the App's core features (dialer, contacts, call history)
  • Display advertisements to keep the App free
  • Improve App stability and performance
  • Fix bugs and crashes

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. Non-personal advertising and analytics data is shared only with the third-party service providers listed in Section 3 (Google AdMob⚠️[, Google Firebase]) under their respective privacy policies.


6. Data Security

Your contacts and call logs remain on your device and are protected by your device's built-in security. We take reasonable measures to ensure the App does not expose your data to unauthorized parties. However, no method of electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.


7. Data Retention & Deletion

Because your contacts and call logs are stored only on your device, you are in full control of your data at all times. You can delete any data by:

  • Deleting contacts or call log entries within the App or your device settings
  • Uninstalling the App, which removes all App data from your device

8. Children's Privacy

The App is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate action.


9. Third-Party Links

Advertisements in the App may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies.


10. Your Rights

Depending on your region (e.g., GDPR in the European Union, CCPA in California, LGPD in Brazil), you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct, or delete data. Since we do not collect your personal data on our servers, most of these rights can be exercised directly on your device as described in Section 7. For advertising data, please refer to Google's privacy controls.


11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated Effective Date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the App after changes means you accept the updated policy.
