Privacy Policy

Last updated:

This Privacy Policy describes how QR Code Generator ("we", "our", or "the app") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our mobile application.

1. Information We Collect

QR Code Generator is designed with privacy in mind. We collect minimal information necessary for the app to function:

• QR Code Data: The content you input to generate QR codes (text, URLs, contact information, etc.) is processed locally on your device. We do not transmit, store, or have access to this data.
• Device Information: When you use our app, Google AdMob (our advertising partner) may collect certain device information such as device identifiers, IP address, and usage data to serve personalized advertisements. This is standard practice for apps that display ads.
• Storage Access: The app requests permission to access your device's storage only when you choose to save or share QR code images. This data remains on your device and is not transmitted to us.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information collected for the following purposes:

• App Functionality: To generate QR codes based on your input and allow you to save or share them.
• Advertising: Google AdMob uses collected information to display relevant advertisements within the app. This helps us provide the app free of charge.
• App Improvement: We may use aggregated, anonymized data to improve app performance and user experience.

3. Third-Party Services

Our app uses the following third-party services:

• Google AdMob: We use Google AdMob to display advertisements in our app. AdMob may collect and use data according to Google's Privacy Policy. You can learn more about how Google uses data at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
• Google Play Billing: If you choose to make in-app purchases, Google Play processes your payment information. We do not have access to your payment details.

4. Data Storage and Security

All QR code data you create is stored locally on your device. We do not store, transmit, or have access to:

• The content of your QR codes
• Your QR code history (stored locally on your device)
• Any personal information you input into the app

We implement appropriate security measures to protect any information processed by the app, though no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.

5. Permissions

Our app requests the following permissions:

• Internet: Required to display advertisements and load online resources.
• Storage/Media Access: Required only when you choose to save or share QR code images. The app does not access your files without your explicit action.

6. Children's Privacy

Our app is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access any personal information we may have about you
• Request deletion of your personal information
• Opt out of personalized advertising through your device settings
• Uninstall the app at any time, which will remove all locally stored data
