Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2, 2026

Introduction

Welcome to QR Studio ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you use our mobile application.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide

When you use QR Studio, we may collect the following information:

  • QR code content (text, URLs, or other data you choose to encode)
  • QR code customization preferences (colors, shapes, sizes)
  • Purchase information for premium features

Automatically Collected Information

  • Device information (device type, operating system version)
  • App usage data (features used, session duration)
  • Crash reports and performance data

How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information for the following purposes:

  • To provide and maintain the QR Studio app functionality
  • To process your premium purchases and restore purchases across devices
  • To improve app performance and user experience
  • To send important updates about the app (if you opt-in)
  • To display relevant advertisements (in the free version)
  • To troubleshoot and fix technical issues

Data Storage and Security

Your QR code history and preferences are stored locally on your device. We do not upload or store your QR code content on our servers. Your data remains private and under your control.

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect any data that is transmitted, including encryption for in-app purchases and premium feature verification.

Third-Party Services

Our app uses the following third-party services:

  • Google Mobile Ads: To display advertisements in the free version of the app
  • Apple In-App Purchase / Google Play Billing: To process premium purchases

These services may collect information as described in their respective privacy policies. We encourage you to review their privacy policies to understand how they handle your data.

Camera Permissions

The QR Studio app requires camera access to scan QR codes. The camera is only used when you actively use the scanner feature. We do not store, transmit, or process any camera images except for the immediate purpose of scanning QR codes. All processing happens locally on your device.

Children's Privacy

Our app is not directed to 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 so we can take appropriate action.

Your Rights and Choices

You have the following rights regarding your data:

  • Access: You can view all your stored QR codes in the app's history
  • Deletion: You can delete individual QR codes or clear your entire history
  • Opt-out: You can opt-out of personalized ads in your device settings
  • Uninstall: You can uninstall the app at any time to remove all local data

Data Retention

Since most of your data is stored locally on your device, it remains there until you choose to delete it or uninstall the app. Premium purchase information is retained as required by app store policies to enable purchase restoration across devices.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this policy. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
