1. Overview
Dialect Agency Inc. does not sell contact data, use contact data for advertising, or include advertising, tracking, analytics, crash-reporting, or telemetry SDKs in Super Simple Contacts.
This policy explains how Super Simple Contacts for Mac, iPhone, and iPad, its optional Raycast and Alfred integrations, and this website handle information. “We,” “us,” and “our” refer to Dialect Agency Inc.
2. Contact data in the app
Contact cards, groups, notes, photos, phone numbers, email addresses, postal addresses, relationships, and other contact fields are processed and indexed on your devices. The local database and search index support fast search, offline access, editing, duplicate review, imports, exports, recovery, and printing.
We do not operate a server that receives or stores your contact database. Launching the app does not automatically start provider traffic.
Apple Contacts
If you grant access, the app reads and writes Apple Contacts through Apple’s Contacts framework. You control Contacts permission in system settings.
Imports and exports
Files you import remain under your control. Files you export are saved to a destination you select. Once exported, those files are governed by the storage location and sharing choices you make.
3. Google and Microsoft accounts
When you connect a Google or Microsoft account, authorization and sync requests go directly from your device to the provider you selected. We do not operate a proxy for those requests.
- Google contacts use the Google People API.
- Microsoft personal and work contacts use Microsoft Graph.
- OAuth credentials are stored in the system Keychain.
- Refresh is manual, and outgoing changes can be reviewed by account before they are sent.
Your use of a connected account is also subject to that provider’s privacy policy and account controls. You can revoke access through the provider and remove the connection from the app.
4. Private iCloud metadata
Super Simple Contacts may use your private iCloud database to synchronize app-owned metadata across your devices, including smart groups, linking decisions, saved views, and preferences. Contact provider records remain with their owning provider.
Private CloudKit data is associated with your iCloud account and handled through Apple’s infrastructure and policies. It is not placed in a public database.
5. Subscriptions and purchases
Purchases, the 14-day free trial, subscription status, billing, renewal, cancellation, and refunds are handled through Apple and your Apple Account. We do not operate a payment server or receive your complete payment-card information.
Apple may provide transaction status needed for the app to unlock subscription access. Apple’s own privacy terms govern its handling of purchase information.
6. Raycast and Alfred integrations
The optional Mac integrations search the app’s existing local index through a versioned service restricted to your device. They do not maintain another contact database and do not receive provider credentials.
The local service accepts search and contact-opening actions. It does not expose account mutation endpoints to remote hosts.
7. This website
This website does not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, behavioral analytics, or contact forms. It is hosted by Vercel, which may process routine technical request data such as IP addresses, browser headers, and security logs to deliver and protect the site. Vercel handles that information under its own privacy terms.
8. Retention and your control
Local app data remains on your devices until you remove it, delete the app and its data, or use the relevant system controls. Provider records remain subject to your Apple, Google, or Microsoft account settings. Private iCloud metadata remains subject to your iCloud controls.
You can disconnect providers, revoke their authorization, manage Apple Contacts permission, delete exported files, and manage your Apple subscription from the corresponding account or system settings.
9. Security and children
We use platform security features such as the system Keychain, App Sandbox, private CloudKit databases, and encrypted provider connections. No method of storage or transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Super Simple Contacts is a general productivity tool and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect children’s personal information through a developer-operated service.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the product, law, or our practices change. We will post the revised policy here and change the effective date. Material changes will be communicated through an appropriate product or website notice when required.
