  • Each profile is tailored for a specific audience
  • Precise control over information sharing
  • Prevents professional contacts from seeing personal content
  • Maintains clear boundaries between different social spheres

Technical Specifications

• Sharing Mechanism: One-tap NFC profile sharing
• Platforms:
  • Mobile Application
  • Web Application
• Technologies to Consider
  • Privacy-first authentication
  • Secure profile segmentation
  • NFC protocol implementation
  • Cross-platform development framework

Privacy and Security

• Strict access controls
• End-to-end encryption
• Minimal data retention
• User-controlled information exposure

Philosophical Underpinnings

Contacts reimagines social networking as a tool for intentional, controlled human connection rather than a platform for indiscriminate information sharing.
