Privacy policy | QR Code Handbook

Overview

This privacy policy explains how QR Code Handbook (www.qrcode-handbook.com) handles information when you visit the website. We aim to keep collection minimal and transparent.

This website is hosted in Europe.

What we collect

Depending on how you use the site, the following may be processed:

Technical logs generated by the hosting infrastructure (for example approximate connection metadata needed to deliver pages and keep the service secure).
Analytics data, if measurement tools are enabled, such as aggregated page views, referrers, device type, and approximate location derived from network signals.
Cookie or similar storage required for basic site functions (for example language preference) or optional analytics, where used.

We do not ask you to create an account on this handbook, and we do not collect payment details through these pages.

Purpose of processing

Data is used to:

operate and secure the website;
understand which articles are useful (aggregated traffic patterns);
improve content and technical performance.

We do not sell personal data.

Legal bases (where GDPR applies)

Where the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies, processing may rely on:

legitimate interest in running a secure informational website and understanding aggregate usage;
consent, when required for non-essential cookies or analytics tools.

Cookies

Essential cookies (or equivalent storage) may be needed for the site to work as expected. Optional analytics cookies, if used, should only run when permitted by applicable rules and your choices.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect parts of the experience.

Third-party services

This site may load resources or link to third parties (for example fonts, hosting, analytics providers, or product pages such as QR generators). Those providers process data under their own policies. Opening an external product or tool is separate from browsing this handbook.

Retention

Technical and analytics data are kept only as long as needed for the purposes above or as required by the hosting/analytics provider’s retention settings, then deleted or aggregated.

Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing, and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Because this site does not publish a contact email or postal address on these pages, exercise rights through the channels made available by your browser settings, device controls, and any consent tools presented on the site, or via the supervisory authority in your country.

Children

The website is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children for marketing purposes.

Changes

We may update this policy. The version on this page is the current one.
