## Features

- Camera QR scanning in compatible browsers.
- Copy decoded QR values and open HTTP or HTTPS links.
- Save up to eight recent scans in this browser's local storage.
- Manually add a link for later.
- Generate high-contrast QR codes from HTTP or HTTPS URLs without camera access.

## Compatibility

The interactive tools require JavaScript. Camera scanning also requires HTTPS, a working camera, and browser camera permission.
AR and VR headset support depends on whether the device's browser exposes camera access; not every headset browser does. Compatible desktop and phone browsers can also use the tools.
The public guide and FAQ are ordinary HTML and do not require JavaScript to read.

## Privacy

Camera frames, decoded QR values, and generated URLs are not uploaded.
Recent scans stay in local storage on this device and can be cleared by the user.
One preference cookie remembers that the bookmark reminder was shown.
Anonymous interaction analytics may be collected, but never include camera frames, QR contents, generated URLs, or visited links.
Anonymous visible-tab duration is also measured for the scanner page, using a random per-visit ID without cookies or a persistent identity. Background-tab time is excluded, and the browser's Do Not Track setting is respected for this metric.
Selecting Go opens the destination website, which has its own privacy policy.
Feedback, future app ideas, and monetization ideas voluntarily submitted through the feedback form are sent to the team and stored in a database. This does not upload QR contents or camera frames.
