# Privacy Policy for Qeep

**Effective Date:** March 14, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Qeep ("the App", "we", "our") handles your information. We are committed to protecting your privacy. Please read this policy carefully.

---

## 1. Overview

Qeep is a personal QR code manager that lets you extract, save, and display QR codes from photos, PDF files, and live camera scans. All data is stored exclusively on your device. We do not collect, transmit, or share any personal information.

---

## 2. Information We Collect

**We do not collect any personal data.**

The App operates entirely on your device. Specifically:

- **QR Code Payloads:** The text content of QR codes you scan or import (e.g. URLs, plain text) is saved locally on your device so you can retrieve and display them later. This data never leaves your device.
- **Camera:** The App requests access to your camera solely to scan QR codes in real time. No images or video from your camera are stored or transmitted.
- **Photos:** The App requests access to your photo library solely to scan selected photos for QR codes. The photos themselves are never stored or transmitted by the App.
- **PDF and Image Files:** Files opened in the App are processed on-device to extract QR codes. File contents are not stored or transmitted.

---

## 3. How We Use Your Information

The only data the App persists is the text payloads of QR codes you choose to save. This data is:

- Stored locally on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework.
- Never uploaded to any server.
- Never shared with any third party.
- Fully under your control — you can delete any entry at any time from within the App.

---

## 4. Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not share your data with any third parties. The App has no third-party SDKs, analytics libraries, advertising frameworks, or crash reporting services. The App does not communicate with any external server.

---

## 5. Data Storage and Security

All data is stored in the App's sandboxed storage on your device, managed by Apple's SwiftData framework. It is subject to the same device-level security protections (encryption, passcode, Face ID / Touch ID) as all other data on your iPhone or iPad.

We have no access to this data.

---

## 6. Permissions

The App requests the following permissions:

| Permission | Purpose |
|---|---|
| **Camera** | To scan QR codes in real time using the camera viewfinder |
| **Photo Library** | To scan photos you select for embedded QR codes |

No other device permissions are requested or used.

## 7. Children's Privacy

The App does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under the age of 13. Because no data is collected or transmitted, the App is safe for users of all ages.

---

## 8. Analytics and Tracking

The App does not use any analytics, tracking, or advertising tools. We do not track your usage of the App in any way.

---

## 9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected by an updated effective date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
