2.2. Automated Technical Data

  • Cookies: We use only essential session cookies for functionality. No tracking cookies are deployed.
  • Log Files: Our servers may temporarily log anonymized data (e.g., IP address, browser type) for security and diagnostics. Logs are deleted within 7 days.

3. How We Use Information

  • To provide and maintain the scanning service.
  • For security monitoring and preventing abuse.
  • Technical data is used solely for operational purposes.

4. Third-Party Services

  • Hosting: Our site is hosted on [Cloud Service Provider], which may process server logs under their privacy policies.
  • Scanned Links: If a QR code directs you to external sites, their privacy policies apply. We do not control third-party content.
