Sambandha ("the app") is a contacts app published by Popup Bits Pvt. Ltd.. This page explains what data the app handles.
The short version
- The app does not collect, transmit, or sell any personal information.
- There is no account or sign-in.
- The app has no analytics, tracking, advertising, or crash-reporting SDKs.
- Your contacts and notes stay only on your device.
Information we collect
None. Popup Bits Pvt. Ltd. does not operate a backend for this app and does not receive your data. Contact records you create in Sambandha, along with any notes, birthdays, tags, and preferences, are stored locally on your device in an SQLite database. Uninstalling the app removes all of it.
Permissions the app requests
- Contacts (optional) — used only so you can import your existing phone contacts into Sambandha and, if you choose, keep them in sync. Contact data is read on demand, used only on your device, and is never uploaded to our servers or shared with anyone. Denying or revoking this permission just disables the sync/import feature; the rest of the app works without it.
- Photos / media — to attach a profile photo to a contact from your gallery or by cropping an existing image. Photos stay on your device.
- Camera — used only if you scan a QR-code to add someone's contact card, or take a photo for a profile.
- Share — the app uses Android's standard share sheet if you share a contact card or receive one shared from another app. The app doesn't see what you share or where.
Sharing with third parties
We do not sell, rent, or share any data — because we don't collect any. QR-code contact exchange happens directly between your device and the other person's device.
Children's privacy
The app is intended for users aged 13 and over. Because it does not collect personal information from anyone, no special handling is required.
