QR Generator

Privacy Policy

Last Updated: December 1, 2025

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit Nuxt QR Generator ("Nuxt QR Generator").

Key Privacy Principle: We are committed to privacy-first design. QR codes are generated entirely in your browser—we never see or store the content you encode unless you explicitly use our URL shortening feature, create a hosted private note, or share text/code through our hosted note/code sharing tool.

Information We Collect

1. Information You Provide

URL Shortening (Optional)

  • When you choose to shorten a URL, we store:
    • The original URL you provide
    • A randomly generated short code
    • Timestamp of creation
  • This data is necessary to provide the shortening service

Private Notes (Optional)

  • When you create a one-time private note, we store:
    • The note content you submit
    • The generated note link identifier
    • Timestamps for creation and first-open
    • Optional metadata needed for abuse prevention or diagnostics
  • Notes are intended to delete after the first confirmed opening of the link; metadata may persist briefly for security or legal compliance

Note/Code Sharing Tool (Optional)

  • When you share text or code, we store:
    • The text or code content you submit and any formatting or syntax highlighting preferences
    • A share identifier and any visibility settings (e.g., public or unlisted)
    • Optional expiration settings and deletion status
    • Timestamps for creation and views
    • Optional metadata needed for abuse prevention, diagnostics, or legal compliance
    • A reminder not to include personal information, passwords, API keys, secrets, or sensitive data

2. Automatically Collected Information

Website Analytics We use Google Analytics to collect:

  • Device type and browser information
  • IP address (anonymized)
  • Pages visited and time spent
  • Referral sources
  • Geographic location (country/city level)

Cookies and Tracking We use cookies for:

  • Essential website functionality
  • Analytics and performance measurement
  • Advertising preferences
  • Cookie consent management

See our Cookie Policy for details.

3. Information We Do NOT Collect

QR Code Content

  • We do NOT receive or store the content you encode in QR codes
  • QR generation happens entirely in your browser (client-side)
  • Your WiFi passwords, contact information, and other data never leave your device

Private Note Contents After Deletion

  • Once a private note is opened and confirmed, we delete the stored note content from our active database
  • Backups or logs may briefly retain minimal metadata (not the note text) as required for security, abuse prevention, or legal purposes

Note/Code Sharing Content After Expiration or Deletion

  • When a shared entry expires or you delete it, we remove the text/code content from active storage
  • Backups or logs may briefly retain minimal metadata (not the shared text/code) as required for security, abuse prevention, or legal purposes

Personal Identification

  • We do not require accounts or logins
  • We do not collect names, email addresses, or phone numbers
  • We do not track individual users across sessions

Sensitive Data Reminders

  • We do not want and cannot protect secrets you voluntarily enter; do not include personal information, passwords, keys, secrets, financial data, or other sensitive information in any hosted tool
  • You are responsible for avoiding submission of sensitive data; we are not liable for any disclosure arising from content you provide
