Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 2026

At Link Code Generator, your privacy is a top priority. Our default state is zero data collection — we don't store anything unless you explicitly choose to save it by creating an account.

1. Data Processed Client-Side

The vast majority of our tools — including all QR code generators and link utilities — run entirely in your web browser. The URLs, phone numbers, WiFi passwords, and text you enter are never transmitted to our servers for the purpose of generating output. Your data stays on your machine.

2. Account Information (Optional)

You may optionally sign in with Google to save your generated QR codes and access your personal Dashboard. When you authenticate:

  • We store your basic profile details (name, email, profile photo) solely to identify your account.
  • We securely store only the data you explicitly save — QR code configurations, destination URLs, and scan analytics for dynamic QRs.
  • You can request complete deletion of your account and all data at any time by contacting hello@linkcodegenerator.com.

3. Pro Subscriptions & Billing

Pro plan payments are securely processed by Stripe. We never store or have access to your full credit card number. Stripe is PCI-DSS compliant. When you subscribe, we store only your Stripe Customer ID and subscription status to verify your plan. You can cancel, upgrade, or manage your billing anytime from your Dashboard.

4. Analytics and Advertising

To keep our free tools running, we use Google Analytics (anonymized, aggregated traffic data) and standard display advertising. Pro subscribers are served no ads. We also use Sentry for error monitoring — Sentry may receive technical information about errors (browser version, stack traces) but never your personal content.

6. Google API User Data — Access, Use, Storage & Sharing

Link Code Generator uses Google Sign-In (OAuth 2.0) so you can authenticate and save your generated codes to a personal Dashboard. Our use of information received from Google APIs fully complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including all Limited Use requirements.

Specifically, when you sign in with Google:

  • We access only your basic profile information (name, email address, and profile picture) to identify your account — nothing more.
  • This data is used solely to power your account dashboard and associate saved QRs. It is never shared with advertising partners, sold to third parties, or used for any purpose beyond operating the service you requested.
  • We retain your Google profile data for as long as you maintain an active account. You can request full deletion at hello@linkcodegenerator.com — we'll action it within 72 hours.
  • We do not read, scan, or analyze any Google account data beyond the minimum necessary to operate the service.

Link Code Generator's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

7. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not directed to individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

8. Third-Party Data Processors

We use the following trusted sub-processors to operate the Service:

  • Stripe (stripe.com) — Payment processing and subscription management. Subject to Stripe's Privacy Policy.
  • Cloudflare (cloudflare.com) — DNS, CDN, and edge hosting. Cloudflare may process request metadata (IP addresses) in accordance with their privacy policy.
  • Google LLC (google.com) — Authentication (OAuth 2.0). Subject to Google's Privacy Policy.
  • Sentry (sentry.io) — Error monitoring. Sentry receives technical crash data (stack traces, browser/OS info) but not personal content or QR code data.
  • Loops (loops.so) — Transactional and marketing email delivery. We share your name and email address with Loops to send product-related communications.
