Privacy Policy — QR Studio

On-device processing
- Barcode/QR scanning is performed by Google’s ML Kit Code Scanner running on your device.
- QR generation is performed locally using the open-source ZXing library.
No image, text, or code data leaves your phone for these features.
Network connections
The internet is used only by Google AdMob to load ads (see “Advertising” below). Nothing you scan or generate is sent to any server we control.
Permissions the app requests
- Camera — requested by Google’s Code Scanner when you start a scan. The app does NOT declare the CAMERA permission in its manifest; Google Play Services manages it on our behalf.
- Internet / network state — required to load ads.
The app does not request location, contacts, microphone, or storage beyond its own private folder.
Advertising
QR Studio shows ads provided by Google AdMob. Google’s advertising SDK collects and processes limited data — for example, your device’s advertising identifier, IP address, and approximate IP-based location — to serve and measure ads. Ads are loaded only when the device has an internet connection.
- Google’s Privacy Policy
- How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services
- Google Ad Technologies
If you live in a region where consent is required (the EEA, UK, Switzerland, or a US state with applicable privacy law), the app uses Google’s User Messaging Platform (UMP) on first launch so you can choose whether ads are personalized. You can revisit your choice from Settings → “Manage ad privacy choices”.
Children
This app is not directed at children under 13 and is not classified as a “family” app on Google Play.

If you have questions about this policy, contact the developer through the Google Play listing.
