# Who can see and change contacts

The Business owner can do everything with contacts. A Member needs the Contacts permission. Without the Contact information permission, contact persons' e-mail and phone are hidden.

## “Business owner”

The “Business owner” can see every contact and do everything with them.

## “Member”

A “Member” needs permissions, which the “Business owner” gives in “Settings”, “Members”.

- To see the list of contacts: “Contacts” set to “Read”.
- To add, change, import and delete contacts: “Contacts” set to “Write”. This also shows the plus button that adds a contact from a quote or an invoice.
- To see the e-mail and the phone of contact persons: “Contact information” set to “Read”. Without it, they show as `***`.

Without the “Contacts” permission, “Contacts” is not in their menu. A button they may not use doesn't show.

## Contacts on quotes and invoices

A “Member” who works on quotes or invoices can choose a contact on them without the “Contacts” permission. The contact's details fill in the quote or the invoice as usual.


## Common questions

### Do my clients see their contact details in Skileo?

No. Contacts have no access to Skileo. They only see the quotes and invoices you send them.

### Can a Member restore a deleted contact?

Yes, with “Contacts” set to “Write”. See [Restore a deleted item](https://www.skileo.com/help/en/restore-deleted-items).
