I will store and use my contacts on my synology cloud. I will never store the contacts anywhere else. Is this possible?

I use Win10, Android smartphone, Android tablet and since two weeks UBUNTU. At he moment I user windows office 2010. If data are stored outside my own hardware I have no control of using this data. So I've installed a synology server and store data for different OS in my own cloud on my own hardware. If the contacts can be stored on my cloud then I get much more control of my data.

Thunderbird stores your contacts in your profile folder. Your profile folder is stored on your local hard disk

Thanks for Your answer. But Sorry I allready know this. My hope was to find a possibility to store some data directly in my cloud. A solution like: "set the lokal directory and filename in an INI- or configuration-file ". There is no other way as using the "Adressbuch Synchronizer" to down- and upload the contact file.
