This Privacy Policy explains how PureQR (com.scanncreateqr) collects, uses, and protects your information. Our application is designed to provide high-speed scanning and code generation while maintaining transparency about data usage.
To provide a functional and reliable experience, PureQR utilizes specific device features and permissions:
Camera and Hardware: We require access to your device's camera to enable the core scanning functionality.
Storage Access: The app uses permissions to read and write to external storage and media images. This allows you to scan codes from your gallery and save generated codes to your device.
Location and Communication: The app includes permissions for coarse/fine location and phone calling. These are used only when a scanned QR code contains specific triggers (like a location pin or a phone number) that you choose to interact with.
Network and Connectivity: We access network and Wi-Fi states to help you generate and connect to Wi-Fi QR codes.
We integrate several industry-standard services to improve app performance and provide features:
Google Play Services & ML Kit: We use Google ML Kit for high-performance barcode scanning.
Firebase: We use Firebase Analytics and Remote Config to understand app usage patterns and improve user experience.
Advertising: The app uses Google AdMob to display advertisements. This involves the collection of the Advertising ID (AD_ID) to provide relevant ad content.
Local Processing: Most operations, such as generating custom QR codes for Wi-Fi or contacts, are processed locally on your device.
Encryption and Backup: We utilize Android's allowBackup and data extraction rules to ensure your history and settings can be securely backed up according to your system preferences.
Offline Capability: PureQR is designed to perform its core scanning and generation functions without requiring a continuous internet connection.
Below are the key permissions utilized by PureQR to function effectively:
| Permission | Purpose |
