Privacy Policy

Last Updated: October 5, 2025

Welcome to QR Scanner – Breaking Edition (“the App”), developed by VikiScan (“We,” “Us,” or “Our”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your information when you use our App. We are committed to safeguarding your privacy and ensuring you have a clear understanding of our practices.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information when you use QR Scanner – Breaking Edition:

  • Usage Data: We may collect anonymized data about how you interact with the App, such as the frequency of scans or navigation actions, through our integration with Google AdMob for advertising purposes.
  • Device Information: Google AdMob may collect device-specific information (e.g., device type, operating system version, unique device identifiers) to serve personalized ads.
  • Permissions: The App requests camera permission to scan QR codes. We do not access or store any images or videos beyond what is necessary for QR code scanning.
  • Game Settings: The App may store your game or feature preferences (e.g., sound, vibration, theme, or difficulty settings) locally on your device to provide a consistent and personalized experience. These settings do not contain personal or sensitive information.

Note: We do not collect or store QR code content or any scan history. All scans are processed in real time and are not saved or transmitted.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To Provide App Functionality: QR codes are processed locally to display results, and no scan data is retained after processing. Game settings are stored locally to maintain user preferences.
  • To Display Ads: We use Google AdMob to display banner and interstitial ads. AdMob may use usage data and device information to personalize ads based on your interests.
  • To Improve the App: Anonymized usage data helps us understand how the App is used and identify areas for improvement.

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell, trade, or share your personal information with third parties, except as described below:

  • Google AdMob: We share limited, anonymized data with Google AdMob to serve ads. This may include device identifiers and usage data. Please review Google’s Privacy Policy for more information on how they handle your data.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, such as in response to a subpoena or court order.

4. Data Storage and Security

We do not store any scan data or personal information on our servers. All scans are processed instantly and locally without being saved. However, game settings and preferences are stored locally on your device to enhance your experience.

We implement reasonable security measures to protect your information during App usage. However, no method of data handling is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Third-Party Links and Services

The App may process QR codes containing links to third-party websites or services (e.g., URLs, payment links). If you choose to follow these links, you will be directed outside the App, and this Privacy Policy does not apply to those third-party services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external sites.

Additionally, ads served by Google AdMob may contain links to third-party advertisers. Please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy for details.

6. Your Choices and Rights

You have control over permissions within the App:

  • Permissions: You can revoke camera permission via your device settings, though this will disable QR scanning functionality.
  • Ad Personalization: You can opt out of personalized ads through your device’s advertising settings (e.g., “Opt out of Ads Personalization” on Android).
  • Game Settings: You can reset your stored game preferences by clearing the App’s local storage or reinstalling the App.

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA) or California, you may have additional rights under GDPR or CCPA. Since we do not store your data externally, deletion and access rights are managed through your device and permissions.

7. Children’s Privacy

QR Scanner – Breaking Edition is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that such data has been collected, we will take steps to delete it.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The updated policy will be posted here with a revised “Last Updated” date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
