Module Overview
Advanced Contact Data Privacy in Odoo
The Contacts Privacy and Export Control module provides advanced security controls for managing contacts in Odoo. It ensures data privacy by restricting phone and email visibility and preventing users from accessing or modifying contacts created by other users unless they have special permissions.
A Contact Admin permission group controls full access to all contact data and exports — while regular users can still view and manage contacts they created themselves. This ensures both privacy and productivity are maintained.
What It Does
Key Features
Hidden Phone & Email
Users without Contact Admin access cannot see phone or email for contacts created by other users.
Own Contacts Accessible
Users can always view phone and email details for contacts they created themselves — workflow continues uninterrupted.
Restricted Contact Opening
Clicking a contact created by another user will not open the form view unless Contact Admin access is granted.
Export Control
Exporting contact data is restricted to Contact Admin users — preventing bulk data extraction by regular users.
View-Level Privacy
Phone and email restrictions apply consistently in List view, Kanban view, and Form view for complete coverage.
Simple Setup
How It Works
Install the module and assign Contact Admin access to authorized users — privacy controls activate automatically across all contact views.
