1. Information We Collect
General
We do not collect or store personal information on our own servers unless it is necessary for app functionality.

Depending on the app you use, the following information may be stored locally on your device:

- Bookmarks and saved preferences
- Download history

App-Specific Data
Some apps may access:

Private or Incognito mode features do not store browsing history or activity.
2. QR Code Scanner App

We do not:

- Track the content of scanned codes
- Share scanned information with third parties
Any scan history stored inside the app remains on your device unless you choose to delete it.
Some scanned QR codes may contain links to external websites or third-party services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external websites.
3. Third-Party Advertising (Google AdMob)
Some of our apps may display advertisements provided by Google AdMob .
Google and its partners may collect:
- Device identifiers
- Advertising IDs
- App usage information
- Interaction data
This data may be used to provide personalized or non-personalized advertisements.
We do not control the data collected by third-party advertising or analytics providers.
4. Permissions Used
Depending on the app and features used, our apps may request the following permissions:
- INTERNET — required for internet-based functionality
- ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE — detect network connectivity
- POST_NOTIFICATIONS — send app notifications
- FOREGROUND_SERVICE — background processing
- READ / WRITE STORAGE — save or access files
- CAMERA — QR code scanning, image capture, or related features

Permissions are used strictly for app functionality and never for unauthorized data collection.
5. Camera & Microphone Usage
Camera and microphone access are only used when required by app features or user actions.
Examples include:

- Voice-based functionality
- Accessing camera features inside embedded web pages
We do not record, store, or transmit camera or microphone data ourselves unless explicitly stated within a specific app feature.

7. Data Retention & Deletion
Most app data is stored locally on your device.
You may:

Uninstalling the app generally removes all locally stored app data.
8. Security
We take reasonable measures to protect app data and improve application security.
However, no method of electronic storage or internet transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Children's Privacy
Our apps are not intended for children under the age of 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
If you believe a child has provided personal information through our apps, please contact us so we can remove the information if necessary.

Some apps, including QR Code Scanner, may open external websites, links, or third-party services.
We are not responsible for:
- External website content
- Third-party privacy practices
- Services not operated by us
Users should review the privacy policies of external services separately.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.

Continued use of our apps after changes means you accept the updated policy.
