Privacy Choices
What happens to your data, and what you can do about it.
What is processed
| Information | Where it's processed | Your control |
|---|---|---|
| QR image | Only on your device | You choose each image |
| Decoded text and scan date | Only on your device, and saved only if you turn history on | History is off by default. Turn it off or clear it at any time |
| Domain of a link | Sent when you request a check | Every check needs your confirmation |
| Full URL | Sent only if you turn it on for that check | Off by default |
Who may receive submitted URLs
If you request a check, the KAVRO reputation service forwards the address to the databases enabled on it: Google Web Risk or Google Safe Browsing, VirusTotal and URLhaus. They may keep it under their own policies. You can turn checks off entirely in Settings.
Delete your information
- History: open Settings and choose Clear History.
- Everything on your device: delete the app.
- Emails to us: write to [email protected] and ask us to delete them.
- Our service keeps nothing that identifies you, so no account or request needs deleting there. For an address already sent to a provider, contact that provider.
