1. What this site does with your data
Static QR code generation happens entirely in your browser. The text, URL, or contact details you enter are never transmitted to our servers or stored by us.
If you create a dynamic QR code, the destination URL you provide is stored so the short link can redirect visitors to it, and we record basic scan events (timestamp, approximate location derived from IP, and browser/device type) so you can see usage. We do not sell this data.
2. Cookies and advertising
This site uses Google AdSense to display advertising, which may be supported in part by Google. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads based on a visitor's prior visits to this and other websites. Visitors may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
For visitors in the EU/UK/EEA, we ask for consent before loading advertising cookies via the consent banner shown on first visit. You can change your choice at any time by clearing your browser's local storage for this site.
3. Analytics
We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate traffic (pages visited, approximate location, device type). This data is not linked to your name or contact details.
4. Data you provide directly
If you contact us by email, we retain that correspondence to respond to your message and for record-keeping. We do not add you to a mailing list without separate, explicit consent.
5. Data retention
Dynamic QR code mappings and scan logs are retained for as long as the code remains active. You may request deletion of a dynamic code and its associated data via the contact page.
6. Third-party links
Guides on this site may link to external resources. We aren't responsible for the privacy practices of sites we don't operate.
