Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us, and this policy explains, in plain language, what information we do and don’t collect when you use Scangetools (the “Site,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), including our QR Scanner Online and QR Code Generator Online tools.
By using this Site, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.Information We Do Not Collect
Our QR Scanner and QR Code Generator are designed to run directly in your browser. That means:
- We do not require you to create an account or provide a username, password, or email address to use the core scanning or generating tools.
- Images you upload for scanning, and QR codes you generate, are processed locally in your browser and are not uploaded to our servers.
- Your camera feed is processed locally in your browser and is not recorded, stored, or transmitted to us.
- We do not store the QR codes you scan or generate on our servers.
- We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Information That May Be Collected Automatically
Like most websites, our hosting provider and standard web infrastructure may automatically receive limited technical information when you visit the Site, such as:
- Your IP address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages you visit and the time spent on them
- Referring website or page
- Basic technical information needed to keep the Site secure and functioning properly
This information is used in aggregate to understand how visitors use the Site and to improve performance and reliability. It is not used to personally identify you.
Cookies
We may use cookies in the future for purposes such as:
- Remembering your preferences (e.g., theme or display settings)
- Understanding aggregate site usage through analytics tools, if enabled
- Displaying relevant advertising, if the Site uses an ad network in the future
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time. Disabling cookies may affect some non-essential features of the Site, but will not prevent you from using the core QR Scanner or QR Code Generator tools.
Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services in the future to help operate and improve the Site, which may include:
- Analytics providers (e.g., Google Analytics) to understand aggregate visitor behavior
- Advertising networks (e.g., Google AdSense), if we introduce advertising in the future, which may use cookies to serve relevant ads based on your visit to this and other websites
If we add third-party services that collect information through the Site, we will update this Privacy Policy as needed to explain their use.
These third parties may collect information in accordance with their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party service we use.
Camera and Uploaded Images
When you use the QR Scanner’s camera feature, camera access is requested by your browser and is used solely to detect and decode QR codes in real time during your session. We do not record, store, or transmit your camera feed.
When you upload an image to scan a QR code, or generate a QR code with a custom logo, that image is processed within your browser session. We do not retain copies of uploaded images or generated QR codes on our servers.
Children’s Privacy
This Site is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or the relevant minimum age in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can address it.
Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect any information collected through the Site. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding any personal data we hold about you, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of that data. Since our core tools do not require an account and do not store your scanned or generated content on our servers, there is generally very little personal data associated with your use of the Site beyond standard technical/log data described in Section 2.
If you have questions about your data or wish to exercise any applicable rights, contact us at duaf338@gmail.com.
International Users
This Site may be accessed by users from around the world. By using the Site, you understand that your information may be processed in accordance with this Privacy Policy, and, where applicable, transferred to and processed in countries other than your own.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal or regulatory reasons. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
