Qr360 Legal
Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Qr360 handles information when you visit https://qr360.co, use the browser-based QR code generator, read informational pages, or interact with site features. The goal is to give visitors a clear, practical explanation of what is processed, why it is processed, and what choices are available.
1. Overview of the Service
Qr360 provides a simple web utility that helps users create static QR codes from text, links, and other text-based inputs. The QR creation process is designed to run inside the visitor’s browser through JavaScript. In ordinary use, the text or URL entered into the generator is used by the page to draw the QR code on the canvas element and prepare a downloadable PNG file. The generator does not require account registration, payment details, or a user profile to create a QR code.
Because the tool is browser-based, visitors should still understand that a normal website visit can involve technical data. Web servers, hosting providers, security tools, analytics services, and advertising partners may process limited information such as IP address, browser type, device information, approximate location derived from network data, referring pages, pages viewed, and interaction events. This information helps the site load, remain secure, measure performance, improve content quality, and support advertising where advertising is displayed.
2. Information You Provide Directly
Visitors may provide information directly when they type text into the QR generator, send a message through a contact channel, or communicate with the site owner. Text entered into the generator is intended to be processed locally in the browser for QR creation. Users should avoid placing highly sensitive, confidential, regulated, or private information into a QR code unless they understand that the resulting QR image can be scanned by anyone who obtains access to it.
If you contact Qr360, the message may include your name, email address, subject, message content, and any additional information you choose to provide. That information is used to review the request, respond when appropriate, maintain records of communication, prevent abuse, and improve the clarity of the site’s help content. Contact information is not used to create user accounts on the site unless a separate account feature is introduced and clearly disclosed.
3. Automatically Collected Technical Information
When a visitor loads https://qr360.co, certain technical information may be processed automatically by browsers, servers, and service providers. This can include IP address, user agent, operating system, device category, browser language, referring URL, page URL, date and time of the request, approximate region, screen characteristics, and diagnostic information connected to site performance or errors. This information is used for security, abuse prevention, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and website improvement.
Server logs are a common part of operating a website. They help identify broken pages, malicious requests, excessive automated traffic, and technical issues. Log data is generally reviewed in aggregate or when needed for security and operational purposes. Qr360 aims to keep data collection proportionate to the nature of the service and does not require visitors to submit unnecessary personal information to use the generator.
4. QR Code Content and Local Browser Processing
The core QR generator is designed to create QR codes in the visitor’s browser. The typed content is read by the page script to build the QR matrix and render the preview. The QR code is then drawn on the page and can be downloaded as a PNG file. This design reduces the need to send QR content to an external QR generation API for normal generation.
However, visitors should remember that QR codes are meant to share information. A QR code that contains a private URL, internal note, coupon code, or personal detail may reveal that information to anyone who scans it. The privacy of the final QR code depends on what the user encodes, where the image is stored, who receives it, and whether the destination link itself is public or protected. Qr360 does not control how visitors distribute, print, publish, or scan the QR codes they create.
5. Cookies, Local Storage, and Similar Technologies
Qr360 may use cookies, local storage, pixels, web beacons, or similar technologies for essential functionality, security, analytics, advertising, and preference management. Essential technologies help pages load correctly, protect the service from abuse, and support normal browser behavior. Analytics technologies help understand which pages are useful, how visitors move through the site, and where improvements are needed. Advertising technologies may help show ads, limit repeated ads, measure performance, and support the website’s operation.
Visitors can manage cookies through their browser settings. Most browsers allow users to block cookies, delete cookies, restrict third-party cookies, or receive warnings before cookies are stored. Blocking certain technologies may affect parts of the browsing experience, although the basic QR generation feature is intended to remain simple and accessible.
6. Advertising and Third-Party Vendors
Qr360 may display ads from third-party vendors, including Google, when advertising is enabled. Third-party vendors may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, advertising identifiers, or similar technologies to serve ads, measure ad performance, prevent fraud, and personalize or contextualize advertising. These vendors may use information from visits to this and other websites to help show ads that are more relevant or to measure whether ads are working.
Google and its partners may use advertising cookies to serve ads based on a visitor’s prior visits to this website or other websites. Visitors can learn about ad personalization controls through Google’s advertising settings and browser-based privacy tools. Qr360 does not control every cookie or technology used by independent third-party advertising partners, and each partner’s processing is also governed by its own policies.
7. Analytics and Performance Measurement
The site may use privacy-conscious analytics or standard web analytics tools to understand aggregate traffic, page performance, general visitor behavior, and content quality. Analytics may help answer questions such as which pages are visited most often, whether visitors are using mobile or desktop devices, how quickly pages load, and whether errors occur. This information is used to improve layout, navigation, accessibility, and technical reliability.
Analytics data is typically evaluated in aggregate rather than used to identify a specific person. If analytics providers set cookies or process identifiers, visitors may have options through browser controls, consent tools where available, or provider-specific opt-out mechanisms. Qr360 aims to use analytics in a way that supports site improvement without asking visitors for unnecessary personal details.
8. How Information Is Used
Information may be used to operate the website, provide the QR generator, maintain security, prevent spam or abuse, respond to messages, improve content, diagnose technical issues, measure traffic, support advertising, and comply with applicable obligations. Data may also be used to protect the rights, property, and safety of the site, visitors, service providers, and the public where necessary.
Qr360 does not sell a list of user-submitted QR code text. The service does not require users to create accounts before generating a QR code. If new features are added in the future that materially change how information is collected or used, the relevant page content and disclosures should be adjusted before those features are launched.
9. Sharing of Information
Information may be shared with hosting providers, security services, analytics providers, advertising partners, email or communication providers, and other vendors that help operate the website. These providers may process information on behalf of the site or under their own terms depending on the service. Information may also be disclosed when required by law, legal process, security investigations, or to protect against misuse of the website.
Because the site is available online, visitors should also consider that any QR code they download and publish becomes part of their own distribution. If a user posts a generated QR code publicly, sends it to customers, prints it on packaging, or includes it in marketing material, the encoded information may be accessible to anyone who scans the image.
10. Data Retention
Technical logs, analytics data, contact messages, and security records may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy. Retention periods can vary depending on the type of data, operational needs, provider settings, legal requirements, and security considerations. Data that is no longer needed should be deleted, aggregated, anonymized, or retained only when there is a legitimate reason to keep it.
QR code images downloaded by users are stored on the user’s own device or wherever the user chooses to place them. Qr360 does not control files saved locally by visitors, files uploaded to third-party services, or printed copies of QR codes.
11. Your Choices
Visitors can choose what text they enter into the generator, whether to download a QR code, whether to publish or share it, whether to contact the site, and how browser privacy settings are configured. Browser settings can often delete cookies, block third-party cookies, limit tracking, clear site data, or disable JavaScript. Disabling JavaScript may prevent the generator from functioning because QR creation depends on browser-side scripting.
Depending on location, visitors may have rights related to access, deletion, correction, portability, restriction, objection, or withdrawal of consent. Requests can be submitted through the contact information made available by Qr360. The ability to fulfill a request may depend on whether the site can reasonably identify the relevant data and whether a legal exception applies.
12. Children’s Privacy
Qr360 is a general-audience utility and is not designed to collect personal information from children. The site should not be used by children to submit personal information without appropriate guidance from a parent, guardian, or educator. If a parent or guardian believes that a child has provided personal information through a contact channel, they may request review or removal where applicable.
13. Security
Reasonable technical and organizational measures may be used to protect the website and associated systems. No website, browser feature, hosting environment, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Visitors should avoid encoding sensitive secrets, passwords, private keys, confidential records, or regulated personal data into a QR code unless they have a suitable reason and understand the risks.
14. International Visitors
Visitors may access Qr360 from different countries and regions. Website infrastructure, service providers, advertising systems, and analytics tools may process information in locations outside the visitor’s country. By using the site, visitors understand that information may be processed where the site and its providers operate, subject to applicable law and provider terms.
15. Contact
Privacy questions, data requests, and general inquiries can be directed to Qr360 through the contact page at https://qr360.co/contact/. When sending a request, include enough detail to understand the issue without sending unnecessary sensitive information.
