PixelQR Scan Privacy Policy
Last Updated: June 17, 2026
Welcome to this app. We understand the importance of your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your information.
1. Information Collected and Explanation
We collect information only to the extent necessary to provide core functionality and services, including:
Device Information: Such as device model, operating system version, unique device identifier (IDFA/IDFV), network status, etc., used to optimize app performance, compatibility, and security.
Camera and Album Access: When you use the QR code scanner or generate a QR code and save the image, we need access to your camera and album. We will not upload your photos or QR code content to our servers unless you actively use the sharing function (in which case the data is processed by a third-party platform of your choice).
Usage Statistics: We may use anonymized statistical tools (such as Firebase Analytics) to collect app usage data to improve functionality and user experience.
2. Data Sharing
We promise not to sell, rent, or trade your personal information. Data will only be shared in the following limited circumstances:
Legal Compliance: We may disclose necessary information when required by laws, regulations, judicial or administrative orders.
Service Providers: We may engage trusted third parties (such as cloud service providers or analytics tool providers) to assist in processing data, but only to the extent necessary to provide the service, and these third parties are bound by confidentiality obligations and may not use the data for other purposes.
User Authorization: With your explicit consent, we may share designated information with specific partners.
Except for the above circumstances, we will not share your personal information with any external parties.
3. Purpose of Data Use
We collect information for the following purposes:
Providing core functions such as QR code scanning, generation, saving, and sharing;
Optimizing application performance, fixing bugs, and improving compatibility;
Analyzing application usage trends and improving user interface and functional design;
Responding to user feedback, technical support, and customer service needs;
Detecting and preventing fraud, abuse, or security threats;
Fulfilling legal obligations and protecting legitimate rights and interests.
4. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encryption in transit (TLS/SSL), secure data storage practices, and regular security assessments. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
5. Children's Privacy
This application is not intended for children under the age of 13 (or the legal age as stipulated in your country). We do not intentionally collect children's personal information. If you are a parent or guardian and discover that your child has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us immediately. We will delete the relevant data promptly after verification. We encourage parents and guardians to accompany and supervise their children's use of the app.
6. Changes and Termination of Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as required by law or business needs. Significant changes (such as changes in the scope of collection or purpose of use) will be notified to you through in-app pop-ups, emails, or official website announcements, and your consent will be obtained (where applicable). If we terminate our services, we will cease collecting data and delete or anonymize existing data within a reasonable period, except as otherwise provided by law or required to fulfill outstanding obligations.
7. Your Data Protection Rights Under GDPR
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), if you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the following legal rights to your personal data:
Right of Access: You have the right to inquire with us whether we process your personal data and to obtain a copy of such data and details of its processing.
Right of Correction: If you find that the personal data we hold in your possession is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that we correct it promptly.
Right of Objection: You have the right to object to the processing if we process your data for legitimate interests and you object due to special circumstances, or if we use your data for direct marketing.
Right of Erasure (“Right to Be Forgotten”): You have the right to request that we erase your personal data when it is no longer necessary for the processing purpose, or when you withdraw your consent without other legal basis.
Right of Data Portability: You have the right to access the personal data you provide to us in a structured, universal, and machine-readable format, and the right to transfer such data to other controllers (this right applies only to data processed automatically based on your consent or contract).
Right to Withdraw Consent: If our processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal will not affect the legality of the processing based on your consent prior to withdrawal.
Right to Complain: You have the right to file a complaint with the European Data Protection Authority (DPA) in your area regarding our processing of your data.
8. How to Exercise These Rights
To exercise any of the above rights, please make a request to us using the contact information at the end of this policy. For security reasons, we may verify your identity before responding. We will respond within the legally mandated timeframe (usually one month).
9. Mobile Device Permission Control
You can also restrict ad tracking or location information collection through your mobile device's system settings (e.g., "Limit Ad Tracking" on iOS or "Oppose Ad Personalization" on Android). This will not affect your use of the core functionality of this application.
