Privacy Policy - Phone 

Last Updated: January 30, 2026

Thank you for using Phone ("the App"). Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our mobile application.

 

1. Information We Collect

A. Information You Provide

We do not require users to create an account. However, the app may access certain information on your device to provide core functionality.

B. Device Permissions We Use

Our app requests the following permissions to enable dialer features:

1. Default Dialer Access

This allows the app to:

1.    Make and receive phone calls

2.    Show the call screen interface

3.    Access call logs (to display recent calls)

📌 This data remains on your device and is not stored on our servers.

2. Phone & Contacts Access

Used to:

1.    Display caller name and number

2.    Allow users to dial contacts easily

3.    Show contact photos (if available)

📌 We do not upload, store, or share your contacts with any external server.

3. Bluetooth Connect (Optional)

This permission is not required for basic app functionality. It is only used if the user chooses to make or manage calls through:

1.    Bluetooth headsets

2.    Car Bluetooth systems

3.    Other connected Bluetooth calling devices

📌 Bluetooth access is used only during active call-related operations and is not used to collect or store personal data.

 

 

2. Automatically Collected Information

To improve app performance, stability, and user experience, we use Google Firebase services, including Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics.

These tools automatically collect certain non-personal information when you use the app.

A. Firebase Analytics

Firebase Analytics helps us understand how users interact with the app. This may include:

1.    Device model and device type

2.    Operating system version

3.    App version

4.    Country or general region (non-precise location)

5.    App usage data (such as screens viewed and features used)

6.    Session duration and app performance data

This information helps us improve features, fix usability issues, and enhance overall app performance.

B. Firebase Crashlytics

Firebase Crashlytics helps us detect and fix technical problems. It may collect:

1.    Crash logs and error reports

2.    Device state at the time of a crash

3.    OS version and device model

4.    App performance information

This data allows us to identify bugs and improve app stability.

⚠️ Important:

The information collected through Firebase services is aggregated and does not directly identify you. We do not receive your contacts, call recordings, or personal conversation data through these services.

Firebase services are operated by Google and are subject to Google's privacy policies.

 

 

3. Advertising

Our app displays advertisements to support free usage of the service. Ads are provided through trusted third-party advertising partners, including:

1.    Google AdMob

2.    Meta Audience Network

3.    AppLovin (MAX)

4.    Mintegral

5.    InMobi

These advertising networks may automatically collect certain information to provide and improve ads. This may include:

1.    Device identifiers (such as Advertising ID)

2.    General location information (country or region, not precise GPS location)

3.    Device information (model, OS version)

4.    Interaction data (ad views, clicks, engagement)

This data is used to:

1.    Show more relevant advertisements

2.    Measure ad performance

3.    Prevent fraud and abuse

4.    Improve advertising services

These partners operate under their own privacy policies and may process data in accordance with their terms.

You can control ad personalization by:

1.    Resetting your Advertising ID

2.    Opting out of personalized ads

This can usually be managed through your device settings under privacy or ads settings.

 

 

 

4. How We Use Information

We use collected information strictly for the following purposes:

1.    To provide core dialer functionality

2.    To display caller details from your contacts

3.    To improve app performance, reliability, and stability

4.    To analyze feature usage and enhance user experience

5.    To display advertisements within the app

6.    To detect, diagnose, and fix technical issues and crashes

We do not sell, trade, or rent users' personal information to third parties.

 

 

 

5. Data Storage

We minimize data storage and keep most information on the user's device.

1.    Contacts and call logs remain stored locally on your device

2.    Analytics and crash data are processed securely through Google Firebase

3.    Advertising data is handled by our ad partners as described above

4.    We do not operate our own servers for storing personal user data

5.    The app does not record, store, or monitor phone call recordings or personal conversation data

 

 

 

6. Your Choices and Control

We believe users should have control over their data and app permissions. You have the following choices:

Permission Control

You can choose to grant or deny app permissions at any time through your device settings. Please note:

1.    If you deny Phone or Dialer permissions, the app may not be able to make or receive calls properly.

2.    If you deny Contacts permission, caller names and contact photos may not be displayed.

3.    If you deny Bluetooth permission, Bluetooth calling features (such as headset or car system calls) may not work.

You can modify permissions anytime by going to:

Device Settings → Apps → Phone → Permissions

 

Advertising Preferences

Our advertising partners may use your device's Advertising ID to show relevant ads.

You can:

1.    Reset your Advertising ID

2.    Opt out of personalized ads

This can be managed through your device settings under:

Settings → Privacy → Ads (path may vary by device)

 

App Removal

You may stop all data collection by uninstalling the app at any time. This is the easiest way to ensure the app no longer accesses your device information.

 

 

 

7. Data Security

We value your trust and take reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect your information.

1.    Data such as contacts and call logs remains stored locally on your device.

2.    Analytics data processed through Firebase is protected by Google's security infrastructure.

3.    We do not operate our own servers for storing personal data.

However, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

 

 

 

8. Children's Privacy

Our app is designed for general audiences and is not intended for children under the age of 13.

We do not knowingly collect, store, or process personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with information, please contact us at: 📧 contact.silvernest@gmail.com

 

 

 

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect:

1.    Changes in legal requirements

2.    New features or services

3.    Improvements to our data practices

When we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of the policy. Significant changes may also be communicated within the app or through the app store listing.
