1. Information We Collect
We collect several different types of information to provide and improve our Services to you:
- Account Information: When you register, we collect your phone number via Telegram-based OTP verification. This serves as your unique identifier.
- Contact Book Data: To provide our core Caller ID functionality, we require explicit permission to access your device's contact book. We collect names, phone numbers, and associated metadata from your contacts.
- Device Information: We may collect device-specific information such as your hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information.
- Usage Data: We automatically collect information about how you interact with our App, including search queries, features used, and time spent on the App.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected data for various purposes, including but not limited to:

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We strictly protect your personal information and do not sell it to third-party marketers. We may share your data only in the following circumstances:
- Community Database: Names associated with phone numbers from your contact book may be displayed to other users when they receive a call from that number. We ensure that this data is aggregated and not directly linked back to you as the source.

These third parties have access to your Personal Data only to perform these tasks and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.
4. Data Security
The security of your data is important to us. We implement industry-standard security measures, including SSL/HTTPS encryption, secure server architecture, and strict access controls to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.
