This policy applies to QR Code Scanner and this policy page. It supplements the general Persie0 privacy policy; for this app, the more specific information on this page takes precedence.
Information used on your device
The app stores or processes the following information locally for the features you choose:
- camera frames used transiently for scanning
- selected images and generated QR images
- scan/generation history and settings
Local processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where it is needed to provide a requested feature. Settings that are technically necessary are stored under the necessity exception in § 165(3) TKG 2021. Local information normally remains until you delete it, clear the app's data or remove the app.
Permissions
QR Code Scanner may request these device permissions:
- Camera: scan a QR code.
- Photos/files: scan from an image or save a generated code.
- External apps: open a scanned link, email or other payload only after your action.
Permissions can be changed in the operating-system settings. A feature that depends on a denied permission may then be unavailable.
Services and data transfers
The following services receive information only for the purposes described below.
Links, scanned URLs, websites and RSS chosen by you
Open or retrieve the content you request. The information involved is: IP, user agent, request time, requested URL/content and any cookies/login data controlled by the external site. For Pareader, page/article text you request may be processed locally and selected text is sent to AI only when you start an AI action.
Recipient: The destination site/app. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for your requested action. The external service is a separate controller. Retention: Under the destination's privacy/cookie settings. Persie0 retains only local history/bookmarks you save.
Optional support email
Answer the request, troubleshoot and document the exchange. The information involved is: Sender address, message, attachments and technical mail headers, only when you choose to contact support.
Recipient: Email transport providers and Proton. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR; Art. 6(1)(f) for support quality and defence of claims. Retention: For the support exchange and up to three years afterwards where needed for legal claims; statutory records longer only if required.
This policy page
GitHub Pages receives the IP address, browser information, request time and requested page path to deliver and protect this page. Persie0 does not add analytics or advertising cookies to these policy pages. Processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; GitHub's infrastructure retention applies.
Processing outside the EEA
Some service providers may process information outside the European Economic Area. Where GDPR requires safeguards, processing relies on an adequacy decision, an applicable EU–US Data Privacy Framework certification, or Standard Contractual Clauses together with appropriate safeguards. You may request information about the applicable safeguard by email.
Deletion and retention
Local data can be removed through the app's delete or reset functions, by clearing app data, or by removing the app. Information held by a connected provider follows the period stated above and that provider's deletion process. Requests concerning data controlled by Persie0 can be sent to persie0@protonmail.com.
Your rights
Subject to the GDPR's conditions, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction and portability; object to processing based on legitimate interests; and withdraw consent for future processing. You may also lodge a complaint with the Austrian Data Protection Authority.
Children
The app is not specifically directed at children. In Austria, consent for an information-society service can generally be given from age 14; below that age, parental authorization may be required. Provider-specific higher age limits described above continue to apply.
Changes and contact
This policy may change when the app or a connected service changes. The effective date appears at the top of the page. Questions and privacy requests can be sent to persie0@protonmail.com.
