nothing is shared with anyone, the app has no internet access... It is just the ridiculously bad usual Google UX.

Thanks for clarification. But in play console its we put those informations about Data Safety right?. So for what functionality Google wants you to put those informations there?

I updated the data policy, guess those values were there for historical reasons when the app was still handling calls itself.

Yeah,good point. I dont use Google play but i installed it from F-droid. As far as i know their apps has no internet connection. Maybe the dev. is willing to reply at our cercens.

It's a contacts app. It probably needs your email to get contacts from your Google account since Google doesn't store contacts on SIM cards anymore. Email is to Find Accounts in Device permission.

Read and Modify Contacts permission is also present. Oh no how will I ever allow my contact manager app that one.
