Privacy Policy - Phone Dialer & Contacts App

Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 2026

Welcome to Phone Dialer & Contacts App ("we", "our", or "us"). We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle, access, and protect your information when you use our mobile application and related services.

Privacy Commitment: We do NOT sell, rent, monetize, or upload your personal contacts, phone call audio, or call logs to any external server. All primary dialer and contact operations occur locally on your device.

1. Information & Permissions We Request

To provide core dialer and call management features, our app requests specific runtime permissions:

READ_CONTACTS & WRITE_CONTACTS

Purpose: Allows the app to display your address book, search contacts quickly from the dial pad, edit or add contacts, set favorites/speed dial, and display caller names for incoming/outgoing calls. Your contacts remain securely on your device.

CALL_PHONE & MANAGE_OWN_CALLS

Purpose: Essential for placing phone calls directly from the dialer pad, speed dial shortcuts, recent call log items, and contact detail screens.

READ_CALL_LOG & WRITE_CALL_LOG

Purpose: Used to display your recent call history (incoming, outgoing, missed calls), delete entries, and organize your call records within the app.

READ_PHONE_STATE

Purpose: Enables detection of cellular network status, SIM card selection (dual SIM support), and call state changes (ringing, active, ended) to trigger the in-call interface and after-call quick actions.

SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW & USE_FULL_SCREEN_INTENT

Purpose: Used to display incoming call alerts, call HUD floating overlays, and the post-call summary screen seamlessly even when your device is locked or another app is open.

CAMERA (Flash Alert)

Purpose: Used exclusively to trigger camera LED flashlight strobe notifications for incoming calls. No photos, videos, or optical data are ever captured or saved.

POST_NOTIFICATIONS & FOREGROUND_SERVICE

Purpose: Delivers high-priority ongoing call controls (Mute, Speaker, End Call), missed call reminders, and flash alert notifications.

2. Third-Party Services & Advertising

We integrate certified third-party service providers to deliver ads, understand user trends, and ensure app stability:

A. Google AdMob & Ad Mediation

We use Google AdMob and mediation network adapters to display banner, interstitial, and native ads. AdMob may collect and process device identifiers (such as Google Advertising ID / AAID), coarse location data, IP addresses, and ad interaction metrics to deliver relevant, personalized or non-personalized advertisements.

Read Google's Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

B. Meta Audience Network (Facebook Ads)

We may display advertisements delivered by Meta Audience Network. Meta may collect device technical information, advertising identifiers, and ad view interaction data to measure ad efficacy.

Read Meta's Privacy Policy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/

C. Firebase Analytics

We use Google Firebase Analytics to understand general application usage patterns, feature popularity, and user retention. All analytics data is aggregated, anonymized, and cannot be used to personally identify you.

D. Firebase Crashlytics

We use Google Firebase Crashlytics to monitor application crashes and stability. When an unexpected error occurs, Crashlytics automatically collects stack traces, device model information, OS version, and memory state at the moment of the crash to help our developers fix bugs.

3. Data Security & Storage

We take administrative and technical precautions to safeguard your information:

  • Local Processing: All sensitive personal data (contacts, phone numbers, call logs) stays strictly on your physical Android device.
  • Encrypted Connections: Any communication with diagnostic and ad platforms uses industry-standard HTTPS / TLS encryption.
  • No Account Required: You do not need to register an account, supply email addresses, or create passwords to use this application.

4. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

Our app does not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately so we can take necessary actions.

5. User Rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Depending on your geographic location, you may have the following data privacy rights:

  • Access & Control: You can view, edit, or delete contacts and call history directly within the application or via Android System Settings.
  • Permission Revocation: You can revoke any permission (Contacts, Phone, Notifications, Camera) at any time from your device's Settings > Apps > Dialer App > Permissions.
  • Advertising Opt-Out: You can reset or opt out of personalized ads by going to your Android device Settings > Google > Ads.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy periodically to reflect new features or legal requirements. We recommend reviewing this page periodically for any updates. Changes are effective immediately upon being posted on this page.
