1. Introduction
Phone Dialer & Recorder is developed by Gurru Technology to provide an enhanced and secure calling experience. We value your privacy and are committed to keeping your personal information safe and protected.
2. Permissions Used
To perform its intended functions, the App may request access to certain Android permissions.
These permissions are strictly used for in-app functionality and never for data collection or sharing.
READ_CONTACTS / WRITE_CONTACTS: Allows the app to read, create, edit, and manage your contacts directly from the dialer. Data remains stored locally on your device.
CALL_PHONE: Enables you to initiate phone calls directly from the dialer. Calls are always user-initiated — the app never makes calls automatically.
READ_PHONE_STATE: Used to detect the current state of your device (e.g., ringing, in call, idle) to manage ongoing calls properly.
READ_PHONE_NUMBERS: Used to retrieve your own phone number for display within the app interface.
READ_CALL_LOG / WRITE_CALL_LOG: Used to display, filter, and manage your recent call history within the dialer. This data is stored locally and not transmitted externally.
MANAGE_OWN_CALLS / ANSWER_PHONE_CALLS: Allows the app to manage and answer calls when set as your default phone dialer. This enables core features such as call control and redialing.
PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS (if applicable): Used to identify or modify the number being dialed for features such as call prefix or quick-dial functionality. The app does not store or share outgoing numbers.
INTERNET / ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Used only for app updates, crash reporting, or checking network connectivity. No personal data is sent over the internet.
POST_NOTIFICATIONS: Allows the app to show call and contact notifications, such as missed call alerts and active call updates.
FOREGROUND_SERVICE: Used to keep the app active during ongoing calls or when the app runs background call services.
WAKE_LOCK: Prevents your phone from going to sleep during an active call or when important actions (like dialing) are in progress.
VIBRATE: Enables vibration feedback for key presses or call status changes.
READ_PHONE_ACCOUNT / BIND_TELECOM_CONNECTION_SERVICE: Used for advanced call management and integration with your SIM or network carrier. No personal data is collected.
RECORD_AUDIO (Microphone):
The app may use the microphone permission to let you record your own voice for notes or memos.
This feature is not used for call recording. The microphone works only when you choose to record your voice,
and all recordings are saved locally on your device. The app never uploads, shares, or sends your recordings
to any external server without your permission.
MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS: Used to control or adjust audio settings (such as speaker output, volume, or playback options) during calls or voice recordings.
This helps ensure clear sound quality while using voice features. No personal data or audio content is collected or transmitted.
📜 Note: All data handled by the app, including contacts, call logs, and voice recordings, is stored locally on your device. You have full control over your data — you can delete, manage, or share it at any time.
The app never uploads or transmits personal or recorded information without your explicit consent.
3. How We Use This Information
All accessed data and permissions are used only for making and managing phone calls, showing call logs, managing contacts, and providing essential dialer functions. We do not collect, sell, or share your personal information with anyone.
4. Data Storage and Security
Your call logs, contacts, and related data remain stored locally on your device. The app does not use external servers or cloud storage. Industry-standard Android security mechanisms are followed to safeguard your data.
5. User Consent
The app requests permissions transparently and only when necessary. You can deny or revoke these permissions anytime through your device settings. However, doing so may limit certain features.
6. Third-Party Access
We integrate with trusted third-party networks and services to improve our app performance, user experience, and monetization. Please review their privacy policies:
7. Children’s Privacy
This app is not designed for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors.
8. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally to comply with new regulations or app features. The latest version will always be available within the app and on our official website.
9. Disclaimer
Phone Dialer & Recorder is designed to enhance your calling and contact management experience. While we take user privacy and data protection seriously, this app operates within the permissions granted by you and the Android system. By using the app, you agree to use its features responsibly and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
