A-Z Contacts
Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how A-Z Contacts, developed by Soirbheachas Ltd, accesses and handles information on your Android device.
Last updated: 11 September 2026
1. About A-Z Contacts
A-Z Contacts is an Android contacts application designed to provide a simple way to browse contacts using a permanently visible A-Z alphabet index.
A-Z Contacts is developed and operated by Soirbheachas Ltd.
2. Contacts permission
A-Z Contacts requests permission to read the contacts stored on your Android device.
This permission is required because displaying and navigating your existing contact list is a core function of the app.
The app may access information provided by Android's Contacts Provider, including contact names, contact identifiers, contact photos and favourite or starred status.
A-Z Contacts does not request permission to write to, edit or delete your contacts.
3. Why A-Z Contacts needs access to your contacts
Contact access is used only to provide the app's contact browsing, search, favourites and A-Z navigation features.
A-Z Contacts needs access to the contact list as a whole so that it can display and organise the list and allow users to jump directly to contacts beginning with a selected letter.
A contact picker that allows access to individual selected contacts would not provide the full contact-list browsing functionality required by A-Z Contacts.
4. How your contact information is handled
Contact information is read from your device through Android's permission-protected Contacts Provider after you grant the Contacts permission.
Your contacts are used locally on your device to display and organise your contact list within A-Z Contacts.
A-Z Contacts does not upload your contact list to Soirbheachas Ltd servers.
A-Z Contacts does not sell your contact information.
A-Z Contacts does not share your contact information with advertisers and does not use your contacts for advertising.
5. Information stored by the app
A-Z Contacts stores a small amount of app preference information locally on your device.
This includes settings such as your selected contact layout and whether contact photos are shown.
These preferences are stored locally using Android app storage and are not used to identify you.
6. Accounts, advertising and analytics
A-Z Contacts does not require you to create an account or sign in.
A-Z Contacts does not contain advertising.
A-Z Contacts does not currently use third-party advertising or analytics services.
7. Data sharing
Soirbheachas Ltd does not receive or maintain a server-side copy of your contact list through A-Z Contacts.
Contact information accessed by the app is not intentionally transmitted to Soirbheachas Ltd or shared with third parties by A-Z Contacts.
8. Data retention and deletion
A-Z Contacts does not maintain an online account or server-side contacts database.
Your contacts remain managed by Android and the contacts services configured on your device.
You can stop A-Z Contacts from accessing your contacts at any time by revoking the Contacts permission in Android settings.
You can remove locally stored app preferences by clearing the app's data or uninstalling A-Z Contacts.
Deleting or editing contacts themselves should be carried out using your device's normal contact-management facilities.
9. Security
A-Z Contacts accesses contacts through Android's permission-controlled Contacts Provider.
Access is only available after the user grants the Contacts permission.
Because A-Z Contacts does not maintain a server-side database containing your contact list, the app does not transfer your contacts to Soirbheachas Ltd for storage.
10. Children
A-Z Contacts is not specifically designed for children and does not knowingly collect personal information from children through an account or online registration system.
11. Changes to this Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated if the app's features, permissions or data-handling practices change.
Any updated version will be published on this page and the "Last updated" date above will be changed accordingly.
