Privacy Policy
Last updated
PraveensForge QR (qr.praveensforge.co.in) is a free QR code generator operated by PraveensForge(“we”, “us”). This policy explains what information is involved when you use the website and how it is handled. By using the website, you acknowledge this policy.
Summary
- Your QR content stays in your browser. The links, text, settings and logos you enter are processed on your device to create your QR code. The website is designed so that this content is not transmitted to us.
- No accounts. You don't need to sign up or give us your name or email address to use the generator.
- No selling of data. We do not sell personal data or use it for advertising.
Content you enter into the generator
The preview, generation and downloads all run in your web browser using code delivered by the website. The URL or text you encode, your design choices and any logo image you select are processed locally on your device, and the files you download are created on your device. We do not receive, store or have access to this content.
Your browser, operating system, browser extensions or device software are outside our control and may have their own access to what you view or type. Their handling of data is governed by their own terms.
Technical information collected when you visit
Like any website, delivering pages to you requires your device to connect to the servers that host the site. When this happens, our hosting and content delivery providers may automatically process standard technical information, such as:
- your IP address and approximate location derived from it;
- browser type, device type and operating system;
- the pages and files requested, the referring page, and the date and time of the request.
This information is used to deliver the website, keep it secure, prevent abuse, and diagnose technical problems. It does not include the content you encode, because that content is not sent. These providers handle this information under their own privacy policies and retention settings. We may access these logs when needed for security or troubleshooting.
Cookies and local storage
We do not use cookies for advertising or tracking. The website saves your light or dark theme preference in your browser's local storage so it can remember it. You can clear it at any time in your browser settings.
Our hosting or security providers may set strictly necessary cookies or similar technologies where they are needed to deliver the site securely, for example to detect malicious traffic.
Analytics and future changes
We do not currently use analytics or advertising services on the website. If we introduce features or services that collect additional information, we will update this policy before or at the time they take effect.
The QR codes you create
The codes are static: your content is encoded directly in the pattern and does not pass through a redirect service operated by us. We therefore do not see who scans your codes. Anyone who scans a code can read what it contains, so avoid encoding passwords or other sensitive information in codes you share.
Websites or services that a QR code links to are operated by third parties and are not covered by this policy.
Sharing and disclosure
We do not sell, rent or trade personal data. Technical information described above may be processed by our service providers on our behalf, and may be disclosed if required by law, regulation or valid legal process, or where reasonably necessary to protect the security of the website, our rights, or the safety of others.
International processing
Our service providers may process technical information in countries other than the one you are in. Where this happens, it is handled under the safeguards those providers apply.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the website, including serving it over an encrypted connection and restricting which external resources it can load. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, data protection laws, such as India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 or the EU/UK GDPR, may give you rights over your personal data. These can include the right to access, correct or delete it, or to raise a grievance. Because we do not receive the content you encode or ask you to identify yourself, we usually hold no personal data that we can link to you. If you have a question or request, contact us and we will respond as required by applicable law.
Children
The website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you are under the age at which you can consent to data processing where you live, please use the website only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time, for example if we change hosting providers or add features. The “Last updated” date above shows when it was last revised. Continued use of the website after an update means the updated policy applies.
