Privacy Policy - Summary
The main priority that directs the operation of www.qr-code-creator.tech is protecting user privacy. To guarantee the protection of users' rights, a privacy compliance framework has been designed to make it easier for users to exercise their right to privacy and access their personal data.
The principal aim of this privacy policy is to furnish you with a wide range of details concerning the categories of data that we collect, the ways in which we employ it, and the numerous options that you may choose from with respect to the use of specific data. We've put in place a thorough privacy policy that applies to everyone who uses our services. To aid in understanding, the key components of this policy have been outlined in the following section. We kindly request that citizens of California read our California privacy notice.
When you use our services, we gather particular data about your usage habits, interactions with the content, websites you visit, and the technical details of the system and device you use to access our services. If you decide to use our "click to call" service, your phone number will be kept for a period of three months.
This information is gathered for a number of uses, such as website upkeep, service delivery, quality improvement, statistical analysis, and payment-related dispute resolution with our suppliers, customers, and business partners.
Personal information won't be shared unless required by law or if it's thought to be necessary for us to provide our services. Users are strongly advised to familiarise themselves with our extensive privacy policy, as it is legally enforceable.

Our Privacy Statement aims to be transparent about the methods used by www.qr-code-creator.tech (henceforth referred to as "we", "our", or "us") to collect information about this website, its elements, subdomains, and services. The term "Our Services" encompasses all of the features, goods, information, and services that are available through our website. This policy's headings are arranged logically to make navigation easier rather than with the intention of being interpretative. The purpose of the tool is to make it easier for users to understand and navigate the privacy policy.
The organisation is free to change its privacy statement whenever it wants, without intervention from outside parties. Any changes to this policy will be quickly announced on our website, along with the date of the last update, which will always be at the bottom. You acknowledge and agree to the updated privacy statement by using or interacting with the website, including any additional downloads or access made after the changes. People will be appropriately notified of significant changes in a timely way by appropriate channels, like a notice posted on the internet, and at least seven (7) days before the changes take effect. Seven (7) days will pass after the announcement was made before the changes take effect.
The Privacy Policy is a crucial component of the Terms of Service. Any terminology used in the Privacy Policy that are not defined expressly must be understood, and one's understanding should be based on how they are used.
Data protection laws are followed in the administration and use of personal information. Handling personal data in compliance with one or more of the following legal standards is customary:
2.1. Fulfilment of a Contract. You explicitly agree that we may supply you with Our Services in compliance with Our Specified Terms of Service by using Our Services. To perform this activity, it could be necessary to process some Personal Information, like the user's IP address.
2.2. Legitimate Interests. Utilising Personal Information acquired through our services for legitimate business objectives includes, but is not limited to, enhancing user experiences, doing analytics, stopping fraudulent activity, and making sure security protocols are followed.
2.3. Legal Obligations. In certain situations, obtaining personal data may be required to carry out legal or regulatory obligations, such as answering consumer complaints or giving information to regulatory organisations.
2.4. Consent. Under certain conditions, the person may need to provide their express consent before their personal information is processed and used for further services. Taking part in these kinds of activities could include making a user profile, signing up for newsletters, writing product reviews, or receiving customised offers. If your consent is required for this processing to be lawful, you have the option to withdraw it by clicking on the given link. We will be in touch with you after we have verified your request.
We employ a variety of techniques to collect data on user interactions and how Our Services are used.
3.1. Information You Provide to Us. In order to access some features and services offered by Our Services, you might need to furnish certain personal data. This group of activities comprises, for example, making a user profile, offering product or service reviews, subscribing to newsletters, and receiving promotional materials. We will aggressively and assiduously obtain your consent before sharing any personal data. In addition, if you accept our privacy policy, we might gather some Personal Information, as explained in the part that follows.
In this Privacy Statement, "Personal Information" refers to any information that could be used, either by itself or in combination with other information, to identify a specific person. This can include a range of information to determine someone's identification, including their full name, phone number, email address, residential address, and other contact details. A number of factors can affect whether or not data is classified as personal information, including the jurisdiction in which an IP address is located and the data's intended use. The previously described conclusion is made possible by the IP address that the user's Internet service provider assigned to the device. In the unlikely event that personally identifying information is discovered, it will be carefully handled and protected. However, user identification is not possible with the suggested approach.
3.1.1. Third-Party Forms and Services: Our company offers a range of services, one of which is the evaluation and endorsement of different businesses, brands, and associations that we call "Partners." Additionally, we assess the related goods that these Affiliates provide, which we refer to as "Products." There may be times when our partners provide you with access to different opportunities, services, or information. In exchange for their voluntary and informed completion of an electronic form, users may be offered the previously described options. The information you supply on this form helps to expedite the processing of your interaction with the relevant Partner ("Lead").
To obtain further details about a Partner or Product, or to initiate a transaction with a Partner, please select the relevant Partner icon or tab. When you finish this activity, a landing page will be displayed to you. The Person entrusted with the ownership and management of this website is known as the Partner. Furthermore, it is imperative to remember that there are numerous internet portals via which one can reach the website. Visitors may be asked for specific information via the Landing Page, such as their name, phone number, and email address (collectively, "Landing Page Info").
It is imperative to recognise that the Partner in charge of the landing page immediately collects user information. As a result, the Partner's privacy statement and data collection policies will apply to the information supplied. You should familiarise yourself with the privacy policies of the relevant organisations in order to have a thorough understanding of how your Personal Information is collected and used.
3.1.2. Contact Us. When a user approaches us through one of our various channels of communication (web forms, emails, feedback forms, or reporting tools on our services), the company reserves the right to seek the disclosure of certain Personal Information, such as an email address and user name. In compliance with the regulations delineated in sections 4 and 5 of the Privacy Policy, all data submitted by the user—including the particulars of their query—must be used to satisfy their request and accomplish our legitimate business goals.
3.1.3. Blogs, Newsletters, Surveys, and Promotions. We offer a range of services, such as articles about the Services, Partners, Products, and associated business verticals, as well as a blog forum and assessments. In addition, participants could be asked to participate in surveys, advertising initiatives, and newsletter subscriptions. The service provider can either hire an outside service provider to handle these duties or handle them internally. People may be asked for Personal Information, like their name and email address, in return for taking part in certain activities (like signing up for a newsletter, posting comments on a blog forum, or responding to a survey). The previously stated data will be sent to a third party that will be subject to our organization's and the third party's privacy rules. We guarantee that the data you submit will only be used for the purposes for which it was intended.
3.1.4. User Profile and User Reviews. Users have the choice to ask for an assessment of our partners or the development of a user profile for our services. We will learn more about you by doing this, which will make it easier to provide a more unique and customised experience.
3.2. Information We Collect from You. The information we collect from you. Different approaches are used to collect information about how Our Services are used and interacted with.
3.2.1. Device Information: Obtaining device-specific information makes it easier to provide services and improves cross-device compatibility in terms of language, location, and time zones. Device type, operating system and version, language and version, user agent information (including browser type, version, and screen resolution), and language and version are among the factors that must be collected in order to meet the requirements.
3.2.2. Interactions and Usage: We gather information about how users interact with our services and use it to improve and maximise their functionality. We also share the information with our affiliates and partners. Through the use of Uniform Resource Locators (URLs), users' access to the system from both internal and external sources can be documented. Furthermore, all user behaviour on the Services, including views and activities, is tracked. We gather information about the precise day and hour of website usage in addition to the temporal progression of user interactions and navigation on external websites.
3.2.3. Log Files: To assess user interactions with our services, analyse user activity, and keep an eye on trends, we gather data from server log files and employ tracking technologies, including pixel tags, on our platforms. Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, which are assigned to clients' devices by their Internet service providers (ISPs), are included in the data provided. IP addresses are gathered for a limited time and used for specific purposes. The first use of the information is to determine the user's location, including their chosen language and country. This makes it possible for us to provide our services to users in a language that suits their region and is similar to their local dialect. Subsequently, automatic processes examine the IP addresses for signs of unethical behaviour.
3.2.4. Cookies and Similar Technologies. Our services may make use of technologies like "cookies," "web beacons," and "pixel tags" to anonymously track users' online activity. We or other service providers may make use of these technologies. A "cookie" is a little digital file that a user's computer downloads from a website. A website can identify and recognise the particular browser that a returning user is using by using cookies. Thanks to this feature, the website can remember user preferences and relevant data about their interactions with our services. Users can choose to accept cookies in full or to get notifications each time a new cookie is added to their browser. While this might happen, it's also possible that the website's services or functionality would be disabled, which would restrict your access to particular features.
Websites use an embedded technology called a "pixel tag" to track and log user activity, which might include, where applicable, acts like reading and looking through emails. All things considered, the combination of biscuits yields the best outcomes.
To obtain a thorough understanding of the many types of cookies used and how tracking technologies and cookies are used on our services, please see our Cookie Policy.
3.3. Information we receive from Third Parties. Our services collaborate with other parties, including affiliates, partners, and other organisations, to maximise operational efficiency. An internal user identity generator and an analysis of user behaviours, such as clicks, purchases, views, form submissions, and phone calls, are just two examples of the many sources from which data can be gathered.
With the click-to-call feature, users can quickly access particular services offered by our platform. Under such circumstances, the implementation of call routing, monitoring, and reporting may be made easier with the assistance of outside service providers. This implies that we might receive the phone number used to make contact with us, but not any other personal information, for a brief period of time. The main goal of this data is to improve the efficacy of our relationships with associates and referrals. The use of your data for purposes other than those for which it is currently intended is prohibited, with the exception of the authorizations you allow.
Using our services does not need users to provide any Personal Information. This activity is completely elective to participate in. You agree to the terms stated in the privacy statement and any other practices relating to the treatment of your information by choosing to use our services. It is politely requested that anyone with divergent opinions not use our services.
The user retains the ultimate say over whether or not to use these services, even if some access methods could require personal information to be disclosed. An individual has the right to revoke their consent at any time if they have already submitted personal information. Please refer to the previously mentioned section 8 for further information about how to opt out and withdraw consent.
The main reason for gathering Personal Information, sometimes called "Your Information," is to make it easier for us to provide our services and make them better overall. The data that is submitted is used for a variety of purposes, such as improving user interaction with our services, raising the general standard of those services, keeping an eye on suggestions and adverts, confirming user identities, stopping fraud, answering questions from users and other correspondence, and authenticating users' access to and use of our services.
Unless one of the following situations occurs, personal information is not shared with outside parties:
6.1. Data Storage and Security Platforms (“Data Platforms): Third-party cloud and storage services, sometimes referred to as "Data Platforms," make it easier to store and manage user data. This suggests that the user's data is shared with multinational companies—including those with headquarters in the US—for the purpose of data storage or other processing needs. The official website of Amazon Web Services can be used to see the company's privacy rules at https://aws.amazon.com/privacy. We guarantee adherence to relevant data protection legislation by imposing strict privacy safeguards and data security requirements on the Data Platforms that we utilise for our day-to-day operations. It is essential to recognise that their policies and procedures are solely governed by their own privacy laws.
6.2. Social Media Platforms. Social media sites like Facebook and LinkedIn may collect and use non-personal information you submit for marketing and operational purposes. These platforms have the capacity to independently collect personal data and maybe combine it with the information we offer, provided that we obtain the user's express consent. We have no understanding of, power over, or ability to control the relevant social media sites' privacy policies, which are the foundation upon which personal information is exposed. Section 9 of our Privacy Notice explains Californian people' legal ability to assert their right to object to participation in data exchanges.
6.3. Other Third Parties. Third-party organisations supporting our business operations, such as customer service personnel and suppliers of email or phone administration services, may have access to the information you input. These companies also help us analyse user behaviour and improve our services. Service providers need to give their clients access to their own privacy policies and make sure that clients are always aware of these rules when using the services. Before engaging in any transactions, it is advisable to carefully review the directions supplied by other businesses. These companies' global geographic distribution may differ depending on where their server infrastructure is located.
6.4. Enforcement. If sharing personal data with other organisations is thought to be beneficial or required, then it may be done. There are several reasons to carry out these actions, such as adhering to relevant laws, rules, court decisions, or official directives. Further actions may be taken to look into possible violations of our terms of service, find and address fraud or security issues, and safeguard the resources, interests, or security of www.qr-code-creator.tech, our connected companies, you, and the public.
6.5. Partners and Products. Those who would like more information about a certain service can use our online form. By filling out the provided form, users can choose to give their personal information to a partner or product that meets their particular needs. After then, the friend will be able to talk to you and provide you the information you need. It is important to keep in mind that the information you submit on the online form may determine how our partners choose to get in touch with you. We do not have jurisdiction over our partners' communication practices because their privacy policies can differ from ours. It is crucial to remember that our partners could be spread out throughout different parts of the world.
6.6. Merger, Sale or Bankruptcy. In the event that www.qr-code-creator.tech or its connected firms engage in a merger, acquisition, or divestment of all or a portion of their assets, personal information and any other data acquired or received by these organisations may be transferred or assigned. Under such conditions, the data collection organisation has a duty to protect individuals' rights in compliance with the laws that apply in their home country and to ensure that their data processing practices are transparent.
It is only permitted to disclose non-personal information to third parties in specific circumstances and with reference to specific types of organisations. It's possible that outside businesses will offer features and services on our behalf in exchange for money. Organisations like Tableau and Google Analytics find it easier to gather data through user interactions or access when other features, services, or technology are integrated into our website. The data that is displayed is gathered by tracking user activity on our platforms, which includes both the material that is shown on the sites and a variety of interactive activities like clicking, scrolling, dragging the cursor, and typing.
Each of these third-party technologies may employ its own cookies in order to operate, and each is governed by its own privacy rules. For more information on cookies, please refer to our Cookie Policy. To find out more about how Google uses cookies, click the provided link. You can click the provided link to opt out of using Google Analytics.
This website may contain connections to other websites, digital resources, or documents (collectively, "Third Party Properties") that are not under our direct control. The assets that belong to third parties include websites that are connected to the pertinent organisation. If the user choose to use the links offered and expose their personal information on the approved Third-Party Properties, then a third party will have access to it. Note that agreements between www.qr-code-creator.tech and its related companies and these third parties might allow data, including personally identifiable information, to be sent or received. It is crucial to understand that Third-Party Properties and Products are not covered by the privacy policies and data gathering practices of these third-party companies. It is strongly advised that users carefully read the terms and conditions and privacy statement of any Third-Party Property before using or interacting with it.
As mentioned in our Privacy Statement, users may choose to proceed with caution when determining whether or not to give us personal information. People are still entitled to view and manage their personal data, regardless of where they currently reside. The following circumstances apply to this phenomenon:
8.1. Cookies and Tracking Technologies. Users can use their web browser's setup to limit or reject the use of cookies that are made by third-party services or websites. The current agreement's Section 2.1.1 goes into much detail on this topic.
8.2. IIt is recommended that individuals review their Personal Information carefully, make any necessary corrections, or formally request that it be removed from our systems, if necessary. For additional details, please refer to the Section 2 that was previously mentioned..
9.1. EU Data Subject Rights. The GDPR is implemented with regard to the gathering, using, and archiving of personal data.
Users located in the European Union are given the following choices:
9.2. Canada. Canadian citizens have the option to request information regarding the disclosure of their personal data to third parties for direct marketing purposes by submitting an email to [email protected].
9.3. Privacy Notice for California Residents. California residents may be subject to certain circumstances where personal data may be governed by California law. This supplemental section provides an element that may be pertinent to your particular situation in addition to our main privacy policy. Residents of California are entitled to specific protections for their personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Californians who meet the necessary legal requirements are qualified to obtain specific benefits.
Our organisation places a high priority on data security, thus we take special precautions to protect the integrity and confidentiality of data while it is being transmitted, processed, and stored on our website and computer systems. The confidentiality and integrity of the website's data collecting and processing processes are protected by SSL encryption and regular security audits. By using third-party services that follow established information security standards and certifications, data storage and transfer are both protected. Our company has put monitoring mechanisms and access limits in place to efficiently control and monitor employee access to sensitive information.
Even with these safeguards in place, it is crucial to recognise that the worldwide network's pervasiveness makes complete security against illegal access and other security issues unachievable. We are unable to guarantee total security of our systems and services against intrusions due to these situations.
We do not explicitly target individuals under the age of sixteen with our service provision. A policy that expressly forbids the gathering of Personal Information from minors under the age of sixteen has been put into effect by the organisation. In the event that a person under the age of sixteen provides personal information by accident, prompt and appropriate action will be taken to remove that information. If you have any questions or concerns about whether our company might be in possession of this kind of information, please feel free to email us at [email protected] to get more information.
A person's nation of origin or place of residency may transfer their personal information to a foreign jurisdiction. It's likely that certain countries don't offer individual citizens' personal data the same level of security as their own. For instance, there's a good chance that the data you presently possess will be transferred to the US. In particular, when data is sent to outside contractors, contractual measures are employed to guarantee adequate data protection during the processing phase.
By using our services and providing us with your Personal Information, you knowingly consent to the ways in which your data is used in this Privacy Statement. This includes data transmission to other countries, particularly the United States.
Our Service Providers derive immense gratification from their unwavering dedication to overseeing the most advanced privacy protocols in the industry and to continuously adjusting to evolving customer demands.
