This access is strictly limited to helping you manage your local contact list. We do not collect, transmit, or share your contact information with any third party.

• Usage Data: We may collect anonymized usage data, such as app performance metrics (e.g., crash reports) and device information, solely to improve the Service.

1. To provide and maintain the Service.

method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
