School Phone Guide Privacy Policy
Effective date: May 17, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how School Phone Guide handles information when you use the Android application. The app is designed for teachers and school staff who want to manage student and parent contact details separately from their personal phonebook.
1. Information you add to the app
School Phone Guide allows users to enter student and parent contact information, such as student names, class information, school numbers, parent names, phone numbers, optional email addresses, and optional photos.
2. Local storage
The core school directory is stored locally on your device. The app is designed so that parent and student contact data can be kept separate from your personal phonebook.
3. Caller identification and voice announcements
If you enable incoming call identification, the app may compare incoming phone numbers with the parent numbers stored in your local school directory. When a match is found, the app may show a notification and, if enabled, use Text-to-Speech to announce who is calling.
The app does not upload, sell, or share your call history. Sensitive phone-related permissions are used only for declared caller identification functionality.
4. SMS, phone, and communication actions
The app may allow you to open phone, SMS, or email actions for saved parent contacts. Where possible, these actions are performed through system apps, and the user remains in control of sending messages or placing calls.
5. Voice commands and Text-to-Speech
School Phone Guide may provide optional voice commands and spoken responses. Speech recognition and Text-to-Speech availability may depend on the device, operating system, installed services, language support, and permissions granted by the user.
6. Backup and restore
The app may provide local backup and optional Google Drive backup or restore functionality. Google Drive backup is used only when the user chooses to sign in and perform backup or restore actions.
7. Advertising and Pro purchase
The free version of the app may display ads. The Pro version may remove ads and unlock additional features such as unlimited contacts, unlimited caller announcements, and voice commands. Purchases are handled through Google Play billing.
8. Permissions
The app may request permissions required for its features, such as phone state access for caller identification, notification permission for alerts, microphone permission for voice commands, and storage or account-related permissions where needed for backup workflows.
9. Data sharing
School Phone Guide does not sell your student or parent contact data. Core directory information is intended to remain on your device unless you choose to use backup features.
10. Children and school data
The app is intended for use by teachers and school staff. Users are responsible for entering and managing school contact information in accordance with their school policies, local laws, and applicable privacy requirements.
11. Data deletion
You may delete records inside the app or remove the app from your device to delete locally stored data. If you have created backups, you may also need to delete backup files from the relevant storage location.
12. Changes to this policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated when the app changes or when legal, platform, or policy requirements change.
13. Contact
For questions about this Privacy Policy or the app, please contact the developer through the contact information provided on the Google Play Store listing.
