QR Scanner
Privacy Policy
Effective Date: July 23, 2026
Thank you for using QR Scanner ("the App"). Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information the App processes, how it is used, and your rights regarding your data.
1. Information We Process
The App is designed to work primarily on your device.
Depending on how you use the App, it may process:
- QR codes scanned with your camera.
- QR codes generated by you.
- QR code history stored locally on your device.
- Images selected by you for QR code recognition.
- App preferences such as the selected theme.
The App does not require creating an account.
2. Camera Access
The App requests access to your device's camera solely to scan QR codes.
Camera images are processed locally on your device and are not transmitted to the developer.
3. QR Code History
If you choose to use the history feature, scanned and generated QR codes are stored locally on your device using the application's local database.
This information may include content such as:
- URLs
- Phone numbers
- Email addresses
- SMS messages
- Wi-Fi network information
- Contact information (vCard)
- Plain text
This data is stored only on your device.
The application does not upload this information to any remote server.
4. Advertising
The App displays advertisements provided by third-party advertising partners.
Advertising services may collect certain information required to deliver and measure advertisements, such as:
- Device identifiers
- Advertising identifiers
- Device information
- Diagnostic information
The collection and processing of such information is governed by the privacy policies of the respective advertising providers.
Advertising Consent in the EEA, United Kingdom, and Switzerland
If you use the App in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you may be asked to provide consent before certain advertising technologies are used.
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may be able to:
- consent to personalized advertising;
- refuse personalized advertising;
- receive non-personalized or limited advertising;
- review or change your advertising preferences later.
The App may use a consent management mechanism to record and communicate your choices to advertising partners.
Your decision does not affect access to the App's core QR scanning and QR generation features.
You may change or withdraw your consent at any time through the privacy or advertising settings available in the App, where such controls are provided.
Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing performed before consent was withdrawn.
Third-party advertising providers may continue to process limited technical information where permitted by law, including for security, fraud prevention, frequency capping, diagnostics, and contextual advertising.
5. Data Sharing
The App itself does not sell or transfer your QR code content or history to the developer.
However, third-party advertising SDKs integrated into the App may process certain technical information required for advertising services.
6. Data Security
QR code history is stored locally on your device.
Automatic Android cloud backup for the application's local database has been disabled to reduce the risk of unintended synchronization of sensitive QR content.
While reasonable measures have been taken to protect your information, no method of electronic storage or transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
7. Third-Party Services
The App may use third-party services including, but not limited to:
- Google Play Services
- Yandex Mobile Ads
These services operate under their own privacy policies.
8. Children's Privacy
The App is not specifically directed toward children under the age of 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
9. Your Choices
You may:
- Delete your QR history at any time using the App.
- Clear all application data through your device settings.
- Uninstall the App at any time.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time.
Any changes will be published on this page with an updated Effective Date.
