Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 5, 2026
1. Introduction
WindArrow ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our QR Scanner application ("the App"). Please read this privacy policy carefully.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information You Provide
The App does not require you to create an account or provide personal information to use its core scanning functionality.
2.2 Automatically Collected Information
When you use the App, we may automatically collect:
- Device information (device type, operating system version)
- App usage statistics (features used, scan frequency)
- Crash reports and diagnostic data
2.3 Camera Access
The App requires camera access to scan QR codes. Camera data is processed locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers, stored, or shared with third parties.
2.4 Scan History
Your scan history is stored locally on your device only. We do not have access to your scan history, and it is not transmitted to our servers or any third parties.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the automatically collected information to:
- Improve and optimize the App's performance and user experience
- Analyze app usage patterns to develop new features
- Identify and fix technical issues and bugs
- Ensure the App's security and prevent fraud
4. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share information only in the following circumstances:
- Service Providers: We may share information with third-party service providers who perform services on our behalf (e.g., analytics, crash reporting)
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law or in response to valid legal requests
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the acquiring entity
5. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
6. Data Retention
Since your scan history is stored locally on your device, you have full control over this data. You can delete your scan history at any time through the App's settings. Automatically collected usage data is retained only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy.
7. Third-Party Links
The App may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not operated by us. When you scan a QR code that directs you to a third-party site, you will be subject to that site's privacy policy. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy of any third-party sites you visit.
8. Children's Privacy
The App is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete such information.
9. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your information, including:
- The right to access your information
- The right to request correction of inaccurate information
- The right to request deletion of your information
- The right to object to or restrict certain processing activities
- The right to data portability

10. California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to delete personal information, and the right to opt-out of the sale of personal information. We do not sell personal information.
11. International Data Transfers
Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. These countries may have data protection laws that are different from the laws of your country. We take appropriate safeguards to ensure that your information remains protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
12. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
