Privacy Policy – QR Scanner

Privacy Policy – QR Scanner Last Updated: October 2, 2026 This Privacy Policy explains how QR Scanner (“the App”) handles information when you use the application. By using QR Scanner, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

  1. Information We Collect QR Scanner is designed to provide QR code scanning and generation features. The App does not require users to create an account or provide personal information such as their name, email address, or phone number. Some information may be processed automatically by third-party services used within the App, particularly advertising services.
  2. Camera Permission QR Scanner requires access to your device's camera to scan QR codes. Camera access is used only to detect and read QR codes. The App does not intentionally record, store, or upload camera images or videos to our servers. You can disable camera permission at any time through your device settings, although QR scanning functionality may no longer work.
  3. QR Code Data When you scan a QR code, the App processes the information contained in that QR code in order to display the result or perform the appropriate action, such as opening a website. The App may store scan history locally on your device to provide the history feature. QR codes generated using the App are processed for the purpose of creating the requested QR code.
  4. Local Storage Certain information, such as QR scan history and application preferences, may be stored locally on your device. This information is used to provide App functionality and improve your experience.
  5. Advertising QR Scanner displays advertisements provided by Yandex Mobile Ads. Yandex and its advertising partners may automatically collect certain information, which may include:
  • Device information
  • Advertising identifiers
  • IP address
  • App interaction information
  • Diagnostic and performance information
  • Approximate location derived from network information, where applicable This information may be used to provide, measure, personalize, and improve advertising, subject to Yandex's own privacy practices and applicable laws. You can review Yandex's privacy information on the Yandex Privacy Policy.
  1. Rewarded Advertisements The App may allow users to voluntarily watch a rewarded advertisement in exchange for temporary benefits, such as an ad-free period. Watching a rewarded advertisement is optional.
  2. Third-Party Websites QR Scanner may open websites or other content contained within scanned QR codes. We do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their content, security, or privacy practices. Users should review the privacy policies of third-party websites they visit.
  3. Children's Privacy QR Scanner is not specifically designed to collect personal information from children. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children. Third-party advertising services may process information according to their own policies and applicable legal requirements.
  4. Data Security We take reasonable measures to protect information handled by the App. However, no electronic storage or transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
  5. Data Sharing We do not sell users' personal information. Information may be processed by third-party service providers, such as advertising providers, when necessary to operate and monetize the App.
  6. Your Choices You can control certain permissions through your Android device settings. You may also clear locally stored App information by clearing the App's data or uninstalling the App.
  7. Changes to This Privacy Policy We may update this Privacy Policy when the App, its features, or legal requirements change. Any changes will be reflected by updating the “Last Updated” date at the top of this Privacy Policy.
