Collection and Use of Information

When you install the ALTTECO App or register on the Site, you will be asked to provide us with your phone number, name and a photo (name and photo are not necessarily) and to allow us access to your mobile device's address book.
A copy of the phone numbers and names in your address book (but not emails, notes or any other Personal Information in your address book) will be stored on our servers and will only be used to:
1) notify you when your contacts become online on ALTTECO,
2) indicate who from your contact list is already a ALTTECO user,
3) correctly show the name of each contact as it appears in your address book when a call is received.
4) sync your contacts with ALTTECO app running on other Android devices and iPads.
The copy of your address book (names and phones) is stored on a live database. This database does not have a "historical backup". If you delete the address book from our servers (more about this below), it will be deleted instantly and permanently.
Your phone number is used for identification purposes as your ALTTECO user number.
Since ALTTECO users may add your ALTTECO number to their address book and see that you registered to ALTTECO, we do not consider the fact that your ALTTECO number exists on ALTTECO as private information.
