Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to qrcode-cat ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our QR code generation service (the "Service"). Please read this privacy policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the service.

2. Information We Collect

We may collect information about you in a variety of ways. The information we may collect via the Service includes:

2.1. Data You Provide to Generate QR Codes

When you generate a QR code, you provide us with the data you wish to encode. This data can include URLs, text, contact information (vCard), Wi-Fi credentials, email details, SMS messages, cryptocurrency addresses, social media links, or other data types supported by our Service. This data is processed solely to generate the QR code as requested by you.

We do not store the content data you enter for QR code generation on our servers after the QR code is generated and displayed to you, unless explicitly stated for a specific feature that requires storage (e.g., dynamic QR codes, which are not part of the current basic service).

2.2. Logo Images

If you choose to upload a logo to embed in your QR code, the image file is temporarily processed on our servers to create the final QR code image. We do not store your uploaded logo images after the QR code generation process is complete and the image is delivered to you, unless explicitly stated for a feature requiring it.

2.3. Usage Data

We may automatically collect certain information when you access and use the Service, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, access times, and the pages you have viewed directly before and after accessing the Service. This information is used for analytical purposes to improve our Service, and is typically aggregated and anonymized.

3. How We Use Your Information

Having accurate information permits us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the Service to:

• Generate QR codes as per your request.
• Monitor and analyze usage and trends to improve your experience with the Service.
• Maintain the security and operational integrity of our Service.
• Respond to your comments, questions, and provide customer support if you contact us.

4. Disclosure of Your Information

We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes. We may share information we have collected about you in certain situations:

• By Law or to Protect Rights: If we believe the release of information about you is necessary to respond to legal process, to investigate or remedy potential violations of our policies, or to protect the rights, property, and safety of others, we may share your information as permitted or required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation.
• Third-Party Service Providers: We may share your information with third-party vendors, service contractors, and other third parties who perform services for us or on our behalf, such as data analytics or web hosting. These third parties are obligated to protect your data.

5. Data Security

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your information. While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.

6. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information.

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy
