Privacy Policy

Introduction

Welcome to QR Code Extension. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains how we handle your information when you use our Chrome extension.

Information We Collect

Data Processing

Our extension processes the following types of data:

• QR Code Content: Text, URLs, or other data you input to generate QR codes
• Scanned Images: Images you upload or capture for QR code scanning
• Camera Access: Temporary access to your camera for real-time QR code scanning

Important: All data processing happens locally in your browser. We do not collect, store, or transmit any of your personal data to external servers.

How We Use Your Information

The data processed by our extension is used solely for:

• Generating QR codes based on your input
• Scanning and decoding QR codes from images or camera feed
• Providing you with the functionality of the extension

No data is used for analytics, advertising, or any other purpose beyond the core functionality of the extension.

Data Storage

Our extension may store the following data locally on your device:

• User preferences and settings
• QR code history (if enabled by you)

This data remains on your device and is never transmitted to our servers or any third parties. You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings or by uninstalling the extension.

Permissions

Our extension requests the following permissions:

• Active Tab: To generate QR codes from the current page URL
• Camera: To scan QR codes using your device's camera (only when you explicitly use this feature)
• Storage: To save your preferences and settings locally

These permissions are used exclusively for the functionality described and nothing else.

Third-Party Services

Our extension does not integrate with any third-party services, analytics platforms, or advertising networks. All functionality is self-contained within the extension.

Data Security

Since all data processing occurs locally in your browser and no data is transmitted externally, your information remains secure on your device. We recommend keeping your browser and operating system updated for optimal security.

Children's Privacy

Our extension does not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13. The extension is designed for general use and does not target children specifically.
