QR Friend is committed to ensuring the privacy and security of users' information. This privacy policy outlines the types of information collected and how it is handled when using the QR Friend app. QR Friend is designed to be a simple, easy-to-use QR code scanner and generator, and it does not collect or store any personal information beyond what is necessary to provide the app's features. Users can feel confident that their private data remains secure while using the app.
QR Friend requires certain permissions in order to function effectively. Specifically, the app requests file read and write permissions and camera access. These permissions are necessary for scanning QR codes and generating QR codes. The camera permission allows the app to access the device's camera to scan QR codes, while the file read and write permissions are used for saving and managing scanning and creation history. No other data is collected without user consent, and these permissions are solely used for the app's core functionality.
The app does not collect or upload any personal identity information to any server. All information generated or scanned, including QR code content and history, is stored locally on the user's device. The data is kept solely within the app and is not shared with any external servers or entities. As such, users' privacy is safeguarded as no information is transmitted over the internet or stored remotely, ensuring that user data remains private and secure.
The scanning history and creation history are stored locally on the user's device. This history is intended to provide convenience to users who wish to revisit previous QR codes they have scanned or generated. The data is not synchronized across devices or backed up to any cloud storage, and users can manage or delete this history at any time. The app provides easy-to-use features for users to clear their history if they choose to do so, offering them control over their data.
QR Friend does not collect or store any location information, nor does it request access to location services. The app operates purely based on the permissions granted for the camera and file management functions. Users can use the app without worrying about the collection of geolocation data. The app is focused solely on QR code scanning and generation, with no tracking of user movements or behavior beyond the app's functionality.
Users have the ability to manage the permissions granted to QR Friend. If, at any time, users wish to revoke the camera or file access permissions, they can do so through the device's settings. If the permissions are revoked, certain features of the app, such as scanning QR codes and saving creation history, may not function properly. However, the app will still operate without collecting or sharing any personal information. Users can also delete the app at any time, which will remove all locally stored data associated with the app.
QR Friend is designed with the user's privacy in mind. The app does not include any advertising networks or analytics services that track user behavior or collect data. As a result, users can enjoy using the app without concerns about their data being shared with advertisers or third parties. QR Friend respects the user's right to privacy and does not engage in any practices that would compromise this trust. The app does not require an internet connection for most functions, further ensuring that no user data is transmitted without consent.
The app's development and updates will always prioritize user privacy and security. If any changes are made to the way QR Friend handles data or permissions in the future, the privacy policy will be updated to reflect those changes. Users will be notified of significant changes, and their consent will be obtained if required. The goal is to ensure that QR Friend remains a trusted app that users can rely on without concerns about their privacy being compromised.
If users have any questions or concerns regarding the privacy policy or the handling of their data, they are encouraged to contact the support team through the app's help section or the official website. QR Friend values user feedback and is committed to resolving any issues or answering any questions related to privacy. Transparency in how user data is handled is of utmost importance, and any concerns will be addressed promptly to maintain trust and confidence in the app.
By using QR Friend, users acknowledge and agree to the practices outlined in this privacy policy. It is recommended that users review the privacy policy periodically to stay informed about how their data is being handled. QR Friend remains committed to providing a user-friendly and secure experience, where privacy is respected and safeguarded at every stage of app usage. The app ensures that users' data remains private, and they can enjoy scanning and generating QR codes with peace of mind.
