Privacy Policy

Last Updated: May 20, 2021

Transparency is key to us, and we want to be clear about how www.qrcodecreator.vip (referred to as "we," "our," or "us") collects data related to the Site, its functions, subdomains, and services. This privacy policy has been crafted for that purpose. The term "Our Services" encompasses all the products, features, information, and services offered on our website. The headings in this policy are organized logically for ease of navigation rather than interpretative intent, aiming to enhance user comprehension and simplify the navigation of the privacy policy.

The company retains the freedom to modify its privacy policy at its discretion without external interference. The most recent update date of the Privacy Policy is always displayed at the bottom, and any alterations are communicated on our website. By using or engaging with the Site, which includes any subsequent downloads or access made after the changes, you acknowledge and agree to the updated Privacy Policy. In the case of significant changes, public notification will be made promptly and through appropriate channels, such as a notice on the website, at least seven (7) days before the changes take effect. The changes will be enforced seven (7) days after the notification is published.

1. Terms of Use.

The Terms of Use encompass the complete Privacy Policy. If any terms used in the Privacy Policy are not explicitly defined, it is essential to grasp their meaning within the context in which they are employed.

2.Our Processing Legal Foundations.

Adherence to data protection laws is maintained in the processing and utilization of personal data. It is customary to abide by one or more of the following legal bases when handling personal data:

2.1. Fulfillment of a Contract. By using Our Services, you explicitly agree to receive Our Services in accordance with our comprehensive Terms of Use. Certain Personal Information, including your IP address, may need to be processed to fulfill this activity.

2.2. Justifiable Interests. We are legally allowed to use Personal Information collected from users of our services for legitimate business purposes, including conducting analytics, improving user experiences, preventing fraud, and maintaining security.

2.3. Legal Responsibilities. Obtaining personal data may be required to fulfill legal or regulatory obligations, such as responding to consumer complaints or providing information.

2.4. Assent. To offer additional services, the processing and use of personal information may require the person's explicit consent. Examples of such services include creating a user profile, receiving personalized offers, writing product reviews, and subscribing to newsletters. You can withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the provided link, ensuring legal compliance for this processing. We will contact you as necessary after confirming your request.

3.Data That We Handle.

We employ various methods to collect data on how users interact with and utilize Our Services.

3.1. Data You Provide Us. For access to specific features and services on Our Services, there's a need to furnish particular personal information. This involves tasks like forming a user profile, submitting reviews for products or services, subscribing to newsletters, and receiving promotional content. Your voluntary consent is actively sought before collecting any personal data, as detailed in the subsequent section if you agree to our privacy policy.

Within this Privacy Policy, the term "Personal Information" denotes any data that, either on its own or when combined with other details, can identify a specific individual. This encompasses various particulars such as home address, phone number, email address, full name, and additional contact information. Whether an IP address qualifies as personal information depends on factors like its intended use and the legal jurisdiction in question. The user's Internet service provider assigns the IP address to their device, influencing its classification. While the utmost care will be taken if personally identifiable information is discovered (though this is highly unlikely), the method suggested doesn't enable user identification.

3.1.1.Third-Party Forms and Services: As a company, we provide a range of services, including the evaluation of various brands, businesses, and entities termed as "Partners." Additionally, we appraise the supplementary products offered by these Partners, denoting them as "Products." Users may occasionally gain access to extra opportunities, resources, and services through our partners. By willingly completing an online form, users may discover these additional offerings. The details submitted on the form will facilitate the processing of your interaction by the relevant Partner ("Lead").

To commence a transaction with a Partner or gather more details about a Partner or Product, kindly select the corresponding Partner icon or tab. Subsequent to this selection, a landing page curated by the Partner will unfold. It's crucial to note that the Partner is the entity responsible for the ownership and administration of this website. Additionally, the website can be accessed via various online portals. Visitors might encounter requests for specific details on the landing page, including their name, contact number, and email address—collectively termed as "Landing Page Info."

Recognizing that the Partner managing the landing page promptly obtains user information is crucial. Consequently, the details furnished will be subject to the privacy policy and data collection practices of the Partner. It is highly advised to acquaint yourself with the privacy policies of the respective entities to comprehensively grasp the processes involved in the collection and utilization of your Personal Information.

3.1.2. Contact Us. The company retains the authority to request the disclosure of specific Personal Information, such as the user's name and email address, when a user engages with us through various communication channels like emails, web forms, feedback forms, or service reporting tools. The guidelines outlined in sections 4 and 5 of the Privacy Policy state that the user's provided information, along with the details of their inquiry, will be utilized to fulfill their request and achieve our legitimate business objectives.

3.1.3. Blogs, Newsletters, Surveys, and Promotions. Our services encompass a blog forum, reviews, and articles covering Partners, Services, Products, and associated business verticals. Additionally, participants can engage in newsletter subscriptions, marketing campaigns, and polls. The management of these tasks can either be done internally or by external contractors. When individuals participate in specific activities, such as responding to surveys, subscribing to newsletters, or commenting on blogs, they might be requested to provide Personal Information, such as their name and email address. It's important to note that in such cases, this information will be shared with a third party, and their privacy policy will take precedence over ours. Rest assured, we commit to utilizing the provided information only for its intended purposes.

3.1.4. User Reviews and User Profiles. Users have the option to request the creation of a user profile for our services or seek an evaluation of our partners. This allows us to gain a deeper understanding of you and deliver a more personalized and distinctive experience.

3.2. Details Gathered From You. Data Regarding the Utilization and Engagement with Our Services is Collected Using Various Methods.

3.2.1. Information about the Device: Collecting device-specific details enhances service delivery, ensuring compatibility across devices in terms of language, location, and time zone. Attributes like device type, operating system, language, and user agent details, including browser type and screen resolution, are crucial.

3.2.2. Interactions and Usage: We collect user behavior data to enhance and optimize the functionality of our services, sharing this information with partners and affiliates. Users can log in through Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) from internal and external sources. Additionally, we track user activity on the platform, including views and clicks, and capture the chronological sequence of user interactions on our website, along with the specific day and time of their visits.

3.2.3. Log Files: Our platforms utilize tracking technologies like pixel tags to extract information from server log files, observing user behavior to identify patterns and evaluate interactions with our services. Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, assigned by Internet service providers (ISPs) to users' devices, are part of the data collected. The primary purpose of this data is to ascertain user location, including preferred language, country, and state. This enables us to provide services in a language corresponding to users' native tongue and suitable for their location. Additionally, automated processes analyze IP addresses for any indications of unethical behavior.

3.2.4. Cookies and Similar Technologies. We may utilize technologies like "cookies," "web beacons," and "pixel tags" in conjunction with our services to anonymously monitor users online. These technologies may be employed by us or other service providers. A "cookie" is a small digital file sent by a website to a user's computer. Cookies enable the website to identify and recognize the specific browser a user is using upon their return. Through this functionality, the website can store and retrieve user preferences and relevant data about their interactions with Our Services. Users have the option to fully accept cookies or receive notifications whenever a new cookie is added to their web browser. However, opting for this may disable certain features or services on the website, limiting access to specific sections.

Websites often employ a built-in device known as a "pixel tag" to monitor and record user activity, including, where applicable, email access and reading. The synergy of cookies is typically effective.

For a comprehensive understanding of the different cookie types utilized and the implementation of tracking technologies and cookies on Our Services, we kindly request that you thoroughly review our Cookie Policy.

3.3. Information we receive from Third Parties. Our services collaborate with additional entities, affiliates, and partners to enhance operational efficiency. Data collection stems from various sources, such as an internal user identity generator and the analysis of user actions, encompassing clicks, purchases, views, form submissions, and phone calls.

The click-to-call functionality on our platform facilitates quick access to various services for customers. In such instances, involving external service providers may support call routing, monitoring, and reporting. This implies that we may retain the phone number used for contact briefly, without storing any personal information. The primary aim of this data is to enhance the effectiveness of our partnerships and recommendations. Your explicit permissions, however, dictate that your data will only be used for its original intended purposes.

4. Agreement, Option, and Adjustments.

It is entirely optional for users to provide Personal Information while using Our Services. Participation in this activity is at the user's discretion. Upon using our services, agreement with the terms of the privacy statement and relevant information practices is implied. We kindly request users of Our Services to align with these perspectives and practices.

Users have the ultimate say in using different services, even if it involves sharing specific personal details. Changing one's decision is always an option, even after disclosing sensitive information. Check section 8 for more details on opting out and withdrawing consent.

5.Purposes for the collection of information.

The primary aim of collecting Personal Information, also referred to as "your Information," is to streamline the provision of Our Services and enhance their overall quality. Several purposes for gathering this information include enhancing user engagement with our services, elevating the overall quality of the services, monitoring recommendations and advertisements, verifying user identities, preventing fraud, addressing user inquiries and other communications, and validating user access to and utilization of our services.

6.Sharing Your Information with Third Parties.

Personal data is only disclosed to external entities in specific scenarios:

6.1. Platforms for Data Storage and Security ("Data Platforms"): Utilize "Data Platforms," third-party cloud and storage providers, for simpler user data management. This implies sharing user data with global entities, such as U.S. companies, for data storage or processing purposes. To understand their privacy practices, visit Amazon Web Services' privacy policy at https://aws.amazon.com/privacy. We enforce stringent data security and privacy measures on these Data Platforms to ensure adherence to relevant data protection regulations. Note that these policies apply solely to their internal operations and practices.

6.2. Social Media Platforms. Social media sites like Facebook and LinkedIn may use personal information for marketing and operational purposes, which isn't directly associated with your identity. These platforms can independently collect personal data and potentially merge it with the data we supply, given we have explicit user consent. We cannot control or fully understand the privacy policies of these social media platforms, which underpin the sharing of personal information. As stated in our Privacy Notice, Section 9, Californians have a legal right to opt out of data sharing.

6.3. Other Third Parties. External entities that assist in our operations, including customer service agents and firms offering telephone or email management services, might access the data you provide. These entities also aid in analyzing user activities and enhancing services. It's crucial that these service providers have their privacy policies, ensuring users are consistently informed. We advise you to carefully review the privacy policies of these companies before engaging in transactions. Note that many of these companies may be based globally, determined by the location of their server infrastructure.

6.4. Enforcement. We may choose to share Personal Information with other entities if deemed advantageous or essential. This could be for various reasons, like complying with applicable laws, regulations, judicial rulings, or government requests. Additionally, such sharing might occur to investigate potential breaches of our terms of use, address fraud or security concerns, and ensure the protection of www. qrcodecreator.vip, our affiliates, you, and/or the public.

6.5. Partners and Products. The decision to share Personal Information with external organizations may be made when it is seen as favorable or essential.

6.6. Merger, Sale or Bankruptcy. In the event that www.qrcodecreator.vip or its affiliated companies opt to sell some or all of their assets, or engage in a merger or acquisition with another business, there may be a transfer or assignment of Personal Information and other data collected or received. During such transactions, it's the responsibility of the data-collecting organization to maintain transparency and integrity in data processing and to safeguard individuals' rights in accordance with the laws of their country of residence.

We may share non-personal information with external third parties and within certain organizations under specific conditions. External companies, for either our benefit or theirs, might provide services and features. Integrations with entities such as Tableau and Google Analytics enhance data collection during user interactions with our website. This includes tracking user actions like clicks, scrolls, cursor movements, and keyboard typing, which are used to enhance the information provided and the content displayed on our website.

The third-party technologies implemented on our website might utilize their own cookies for specific functionalities, and each adheres to its unique set of privacy policies. For more information about cookies and their usage, please consult our Cookie Policy. To understand how Google employs cookies, you can follow the provided link. Additionally, if you wish to opt out of Google Analytics, another link is available for that purpose.

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), California residents are afforded distinct rights concerning their personal data. These rights are accessible to Californians who comply with the legal requirements.

Additionally, our company has established monitoring systems and access controls to effectively oversee and regulate employee access to sensitive information.
