More details to this question:
If I pay the bill for my cell phone and are the main account holder, but the cell phone is on my parents credit card just for the monthly bill, do they have the right to take away the phone (if I pay the bill)? If they DO have the right to take the phone away, do they have the right to go through everything in my phone?

From your inquiry, it sounds as if you are the owner of the account and of the telephone. Someone else has apparently paid the bill. If they stop paying the bill and you pay it yourself, or even if some third person pays the bill, that doens't change the owernship of either the phone or the account.
You don't specify whether you are a minor or not. If you are a minor, your parents may have greater rigths.
