+####How does the address book integration work?
+The address bock integration was designed to protect your privacy. Conversations
+neither uploads contacts from your address book to your server nor fills your
+address book with unnecessary contacts from your online roster. If you manually
+add a Jabber ID to your phones address book Conversations will use the name and
+the profile picture of this contact. To make the process of adding Jabber IDs to
+your address book easier you can click on the profile picture in the contact
+detais within Conversations. This will start an add to address book intent with the jabber ID
+as payload. This doesn’t require Conversations to have write permissions on your
+address book but also doesn’t require you to copy past Jabber ID from one app to
+another.
 ###Security
