Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 9, 2026

The short version

Simplified QR is built on a simple principle: your data is yours. Nothing you generate in Simplified QR is ever uploaded to our servers, stored on our systems, or seen by us. Everything runs inside your browser, on your own device.

How QR code content is handled

The links, WiFi details, contacts, and text you enter are encoded into QR codes in your browser.

QR styling and logo images are processed on your device. The generator does not upload your QR content to our servers.

PNG and SVG downloads are generated locally. Anyone who scans a shared code can read its content; a QR code does not encrypt it.

Saved QR history is stored in this browser using IndexedDB. It is not synced across devices. Clearing site data removes it.

What we do collect

Website usage and infrastructure data are separate from the content you process in the tool.

  • •Website requests — hosting infrastructure receives request information such as IP address, request path, and browser information when serving the website.
  • •Error logs — technical errors may be logged to diagnose problems with the website.
  • •Optional support — Buy Me a Coffee handles optional contributions on its own website under its privacy policy. No payment is needed to use this tool.

No account or email address is required to generate and download QR codes.

Cookies

Browser storage saves preferences and local QR history. You can remove these through your browser site-data settings. No account is needed to use the generator.

Third-party services

  • •Website hosting — infrastructure providers process web requests, including IP address, path, and timestamp, to deliver and protect the website.
  • •Buy Me a Coffee — if you follow the support link, that service handles your visit and any contribution under its own privacy policy.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy occasionally. The date at the top of this page will always reflect when it was last changed. We will never make changes that compromise the core privacy principle: your data is yours and it never leaves your device.
