Show fields in UL, but handle empty fields too

So I have this field group called ‘Contact details’. It contains the following fields:

• Contact person (Name – contact_person; Type – Text)
• Telephone number (landline) (Name – telephone_number_landline; Type – Text)
• Telephone number (mobile) (Name – telephone_number_mobile; Type – Text)
• Email address (Name – email_address; Type – Email)

I would like to have it displayed in a list (UL or OL), but only those fields I populate with data.

I understand what’s behind this code for not showing a field if there’s no data in it (found at https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/hiding-empty-fields/):

<?php if( get_field('field_name') ): ?>
	<p>My field value: <?php the_field('field_name'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>

But the loop on that page (which looks like what I’m after)…

<?php 

$fields = get_field_objects();

<?php if( $fields ): ?>
	<ul>
	<?php foreach( $fields as $field ): ?>

		<?php if( $field['value'] ): ?>
			<li><?php echo $field['label']; ?>: <?php echo $field['value']; ?></li>
		<?php endif; ?>

	<?php endforeach; ?>
	</ul>
<?php endif; ?>

What the heck am I supposed to do with that?

Can I modify that loop to fit my need?

Please help. My PHP skillz are beyond shocking.
