Plain QR Privacy Policy

Plain QR is built to be private by design. What you scan stays on your iPhone. This policy explains exactly how your information is handled.

Information We Collect

None. Plain QR has no account, no login, no servers of its own, and no analytics, advertising or tracking code. We never see what you scan or make.

Camera and Photos

Plain QR uses the camera only to read codes, using Apple frameworks on your device. No camera image is stored or sent anywhere. When you scan a code from a photo, you pick that one picture with the iOS photo picker; Plain QR cannot see the rest of your library. If you save a code you made, Plain QR asks to add it to your photo library and cannot read your photos.

Scan History

Your history is stored only on your device. You can turn history off in Settings, delete single scans, or clear it all from the History tab. Deleting the app deletes the history.

Networking

Plain QR makes only these connections:

• Check where it goes. Only when you tap it, Plain QR asks the link's own web server where the link leads, without loading the page. That server sees an ordinary request from your internet connection, as it would if you opened the link.
• Opening a link. When you choose to open a link, it opens in Safari, and the website you visit works as it would in any browser.
• The App Store. To start the free trial and to offer and verify the one time unlock. Apple handles the payment; we never receive your payment details.

Contacts, Calendar and Wi-Fi

When you add a contact or a calendar event from a code, iOS shows its own screen and nothing is saved unless you confirm it there. Plain QR does not read your contacts or calendar. When you join a Wi-Fi network from a code, iOS asks you to confirm before joining.

Children's Privacy

Plain QR does not collect any personal information from anyone, including children.

Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes, we will update the date above and post the revised policy here.
