Privacy Policy
How we protect and handle your data
Last Updated: February 18, 2026
Our Commitment to Privacy
At Scan QR Code Online, your privacy is our top priority. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our QR code scanning and generation services.
We have designed our service to be as private and secure as possible. All QR code scanning and generation happens directly in your browser – we never upload your images or data to our servers.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide: We do not require you to create an account or provide any personal information to use our QR code scanner or generator. Any text, URLs, or other data you enter to generate QR codes remains on your device and is not collected by us.
Automatic Information: Like most websites, we collect certain information automatically through cookies and similar technologies. This may include your IP address, browser type and version, device type and operating system, pages you visit on our site, time and date of your visit, and referring website addresses.
This information helps us understand how visitors use our site and improve our services. It is anonymized and cannot be used to personally identify you.
Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to remember your preferences (like language selection), understand how you interact with our site, and improve site performance and user experience.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling cookies may affect your experience on our site.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to provide and maintain our QR code services, improve and personalize your experience, analyze site usage and fix technical issues, and prevent fraudulent or unauthorized use.
Data Storage and Security
Local Processing: All QR code scanning and generation happens locally in your browser. Images you upload for scanning and QR codes you generate never leave your device.
No User Accounts: We do not maintain user accounts or databases of your personal information.
Security Measures: We implement industry-standard security measures to protect our website and any limited information we collect. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.
Third-Party Services
Our website uses the following third-party services: Google Fonts (for typography), Font Awesome (for icons), and jsQR (QR code scanning library that runs entirely in your browser). These services have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.
Children's Privacy
Our services are not directed to children under 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.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access information we hold about you, the right to request deletion of your information, and the right to opt out of data collection.
To exercise these rights, please contact us at privacy@scanqrcodeonline.com.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new policy on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
