This Privacy Policy describes how the QR Scanner Pro mobile application (“App”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) handles information when you use the App on Android devices distributed through Google Play.
By using the App, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.
QR Scanner Pro lets you scan QR codes using your device camera or a photo you select from your gallery. Depending on the scanned content, you may open links, copy or share results, or join a Wi‑Fi network using your device’s system dialogs. Scanned content is processed on your device.
We do not collect, store on our servers, or sell:
Personal identity information (name, email, phone number, address)
Account or login details (the App does not require an account)
Location data for tracking or advertising
Your full photo library or files from your device
Payment or financial information
Advertising identifiers for ads (the App does not show ads at this time)
Analytics or crash reports sent to us (the App does not include third-party analytics SDKs at this time)
The App requests camera permission to scan QR codes with the live camera.
The camera is used locally on your device while you are on the scan screen.
We do not record video, save photos from the camera, or upload camera images to any server.
When a QR code is detected, only the decoded text/content of that code is shown on your screen.
You can deny camera permission; without it, camera scanning will not work. Gallery scanning may still be available.
If you choose Scan from gallery, the App uses the system photo picker so you can select one image.
We do not request broad access to your entire photo library.
The selected image is processed on your device only to detect a QR code.
We do not upload your selected photo to our servers.
If no QR code is found, the App simply informs you and does not keep the image.
Scan results are processed and displayed on your device.
We do not send scanned QR content to our servers.
The App does not currently save a permanent cloud history of scans. What appears on screen stays on your device for that session unless you copy, share, open a link, or use another device feature yourself.
If a scan contains a web link and you tap Open in browser, your device opens that link in an external browser or app. That destination is controlled by its own privacy policy.
Copy uses your device clipboard.
Share uses your device’s system share sheet and whichever app you choose. We do not operate those third-party apps.
If a scan contains a Wi‑Fi QR code and you tap Connect to Wi‑Fi:
Network name and password from the QR code are used on your device to help you join the network.
On supported Android versions, the App opens the system Wi‑Fi save/connect dialog. You must confirm in that system UI.
We do not upload Wi‑Fi passwords or network names to our servers.
On some devices or older Android versions, the App may instead copy the password and open Wi‑Fi settings so you can join manually.
Like most apps on Google Play:
Google Play and your Android device may process standard installation, update, and device information under Google’s own policies.
System features (clipboard, share sheet, browser, Wi‑Fi settings) are controlled by your device and operating system, not by our servers.
The App may load fonts via Google Fonts when available. That may involve a network request to Google’s services, subject to Google’s Privacy Policy.
Any information processed on your device is used only to:
Provide QR code scanning (camera or selected gallery image)
Display the scanned result on screen
Let you open links, copy or share results, or join a Wi‑Fi network when you choose those actions
Operate basic App features
We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or selling to third parties.
We do not share, sell, rent, or trade your personal information with third parties because we do not collect personal information on our servers.
Third parties that may be involved only as part of the platform or device:
Party
Role
Google Play / Google
App distribution and related platform services
Your device / Android
Camera, photo picker, clipboard, share sheet, browser, and Wi‑Fi system dialogs
Because we do not operate a backend that stores your scan data or personal accounts:
We do not retain personal data about you on our servers.
Camera frames are used only in real time for scanning and are not stored by us.
A gallery image you select is used only for on-device QR detection for that action.
Scan text shown in the App remains on your device for the current use of the App.
The App is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the App in a way that reaches us, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.
Access
Purpose
Camera
Scan QR codes with the device camera
Photos (via system photo picker)
Scan a QR code from an image you select; not full library access
System Wi‑Fi dialogs / settings
Help you save or join a network from a Wi‑Fi QR code when you choose Connect
No accounts, ads, or analytics SDKs are included in the App as currently developed.
We design the App so that QR scanning happens on-device. Because we do not collect or store your personal data on our servers, the main risks related to QR codes are the same as with any scanner: a QR code may contain a link, Wi‑Fi credentials, or text that you choose to open, share, or use. Use caution before opening unknown links or joining unknown networks.
QR codes may contain websites, Wi‑Fi credentials, text, or other data created by someone else. We are not responsible for the content of QR codes you scan or for any third-party websites, networks, or services those codes may lead to. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.
We may update this Privacy Policy when the App changes (for example, if we add accounts, cloud history, ads, or analytics). The “Last updated” date at the top will be revised. Continued use of the App after changes means you accept the updated policy.
If we begin collecting personal data in the future, we will update this policy and, where required, request additional consent.
You can revoke camera permission at any time in your device settings.
You can decline to select a gallery photo; gallery scanning will not run without your selection.
You can cancel system Wi‑Fi or share dialogs.
You can uninstall the App at any time; that removes the App from your device.
Because we do not store your personal data on our servers, there is typically no server-side data for us to delete.

You may use this summary when filling out Google Play’s Data safety form, based on the App as currently developed:
Does the app collect personal data? No (no account, no server-side collection of user personal data by the developer).
Camera: Used for scanning only; not collected or shared by the developer.
Photos: A user-selected image may be processed on-device to scan a QR code; not uploaded to developer servers.
Wi‑Fi credentials from QR codes: Used on-device to help join a network when the user chooses Connect; not uploaded to developer servers.
Data shared with third parties? No developer-operated sharing of user personal data. Device system features (browser, share targets) may apply when the user chooses those actions.
Data encrypted in transit? Not applicable for developer-collected data (none collected). On-device scanning does not upload scan results to us.
Users can request deletion? Not applicable for server-stored data (none). Users can uninstall the App.
Update this section if you later add analytics, ads, accounts, or cloud features.
