๐ข TL;DR โ We do not collect, store, or sell your personal data. QR codes are generated entirely in your browser. Nothing you type ever leaves your device.
๐ Overview
needqrcode.com ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.
By using needqrcode.com, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
โก QR code generation โ 100% client-side
All QR code generation happens entirely within your browser using JavaScript. This means:
- URLs, text, Wi-Fi passwords, and email addresses you enter are never sent to our servers
- We have no server-side component involved in QR code creation
- Your data is not stored, logged, or processed by us in any way
- Downloaded QR code images stay on your device only
๐ Analytics โ Google Analytics 4
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use our site. GA4 collects anonymized data including:
- Pages visited and time spent on the site
- General geographic location (country/region level)
- Browser type, device type, and operating system
- Referring website (how you found us)
- Events such as tab switches, QR generation, and downloads
GA4 does not collect personally identifiable information. IP addresses are anonymized. Data is processed by Google LLC under their Privacy Policy.
You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
๐ฐ Advertising โ Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on needqrcode.com. AdSense may use cookies and web beacons to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
AdSense may collect:
- Cookie identifiers for ad personalization
- IP address (used for geographic ad targeting)
- Browser and device information

๐ช Cookies
needqrcode.com itself does not set any first-party cookies. However, third-party services we use (Google Analytics and Google AdSense) may set cookies on your device.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some features or the display of ads.
๐ GDPR โ European users
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):
- Right to access the personal data we hold about you
- Right to rectification of inaccurate data
- Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten")
- Right to restrict or object to processing
- Right to data portability
Since we do not directly collect personal data (QR generation is client-side only), most of your GDPR rights relate to data collected by Google Analytics and AdSense. You can exercise these rights through Google's privacy tools at myaccount.google.com.
