Last Updated: April 2026 | Effective Date: April 21, 2026

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better browsing experience, and supply information to the website owners. Cookies allow websites to recognize your device and remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferences and login status.

How We Use Cookies

QRCodeKey uses cookies for several purposes to enhance your experience on our platform. Below are the categories of cookies we use:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of our website and cannot be disabled. They enable core functionality such as session management, user authentication, and security features. Without these cookies, the services you have requested cannot be provided.

Functional Cookies

These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make, such as your language preference and user settings, in order to provide a more personalized experience. They may also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts, and other customizable parts of the interface.

Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, including which pages are visited most often, usage patterns, and page views. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and used solely to improve how our service works. These cookies help us understand user behavior so we can continually enhance the QRCodeKey experience.

Third-Party Cookies

In addition to our own cookies, we may also use cookies set by third-party services that appear on our pages:

Stripe

Stripe sets cookies to process payments securely and to detect and prevent fraud. These cookies are necessary for payment processing and are governed by Stripe's own privacy and cookie policies.

Google Maps

Google Maps sets cookies when map features are displayed on our platform to show location data. These cookies are used to provide mapping functionality and are governed by Google's privacy and cookie policies.

Cookie Duration

Cookies can remain on your device for different periods of time depending on their type:

Session Cookies

These are temporary cookies that are erased when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session as you navigate through our website, such as keeping you logged in during your visit.

Persistent Cookies

These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them. They are used to remember your preferences and settings for future visits, so you do not have to re-enter them each time you use QRCodeKey.

Managing Cookies

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. Below are instructions for managing cookies in common browsers:

  • Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
  • Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
  • Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
  • Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data

Please note: If you choose to disable or delete cookies, some features of QRCodeKey may not function properly. Essential cookies are required for the core functionality of our service, and disabling them may prevent you from logging in, maintaining a session, or using key features of the platform.

GDPR Cookie Consent (EU/UK Users)

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy Directive require us to obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. When you first visit our website from the EEA or UK, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to:

  • Accept All Cookies: Consent to the use of all cookie categories, including analytics and functional cookies.
  • Reject Non-Essential Cookies: Only essential cookies required for the website to function will be placed on your device.
  • Manage Preferences: Choose which categories of cookies you wish to allow or block.

You may change your cookie preferences at any time by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the site. Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are strictly necessary for the operation of the service. We do not use cookies for profiling or targeted advertising.

International Cookie Regulations

Brazil (LGPD)

Under the LGPD, cookies that process personal data require your consent. You have the right to access information about cookie-based data processing and to revoke your consent at any time.

Canada (PIPEDA)

Under PIPEDA, we obtain your implied consent for essential cookies and express consent for analytics and other non-essential cookies where required by applicable provincial law.

Australia (Privacy Act)

Under the Australian Privacy Act, we inform you about our use of cookies in this policy. You can manage cookies through your browser settings at any time.

India (DPDP Act)

Under the DPDP Act 2023, cookies that collect digital personal data require your consent. You have the right to withdraw your consent and request erasure of data collected through cookies.

Do Not Track

Some web browsers transmit "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals to websites. Because there is no universally accepted standard for how to respond to DNT signals, QRCodeKey does not currently respond to DNT browser signals or headers. However, you can manage your cookie preferences using the browser settings described above. We will update this policy if a uniform DNT standard is adopted.

Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
