Block access to certain permissions

Just bought my first tablet yesterday, and was looking at apps. I would like to download a few, but I'm not willing to allow so much access. It's not a phone so it doesn't need to access my contacts. There is no reason for anything to access my location unless I'm using it for a gps (I won't my car has it). That sort of thing. I want a non warranty voiding method to deny access.

Suggestions? Thanks!
