Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2026
The short version
QRgenie generates QR codes entirely inside your browser. The URLs and text you enter are never sent to any server — not ours, not anyone's. We do not collect personal data. We do not use cookies for tracking. Your settings are saved in your browser's local storage on your device only.
Who we are
QRgenie is operated by RuntimeHub. For general contact information, visit runtime-hub.com.
Information we do not collect
Because the Service operates entirely client-side, we have no technical mechanism to collect the following, and we have deliberately avoided building one:
- The URLs, text, or other content you type into the QR generator
- The QR codes you generate or download
- Your name, email address, or any other personally identifiable information
- Your IP address in connection with QR generation activity
Information that may be collected automatically
Like any website, your browser sends a standard HTTP request when you visit qrgenie.runtime-hub.com. This request may be logged by our hosting infrastructure (Cloudflare Pages) and typically includes your IP address, browser type, and the page requested. This information is processed by Cloudflare under their own privacy policy and is used solely for security, reliability, and aggregate traffic analysis. RuntimeHub does not access or store individual visitor logs.
Local storage
QRgenie saves your last-used customisation preferences (colour choices, export size, error-correction level, and module style) to your browser's localStorage. This data never leaves your device. You can clear it at any time by resetting the tool, clearing your browser's site data, or using a private / incognito window.
Cookies
QRgenie does not set any cookies. Third-party advertising networks displayed on the page may set their own cookies in accordance with their own privacy policies. You can control or block these through your browser settings or a cookie management tool.
Advertising
The Service may display advertisements from third-party networks. These networks may use cookies, device identifiers, or similar technologies to serve contextually or behaviourally targeted ads. RuntimeHub does not share any QRgenie user data with advertisers — because we do not collect any. You can opt out of interest-based advertising through your device's advertising settings or industry opt-out tools such as youronlinechoices.eu (EU) or optout.aboutads.info (US).
Google Fonts
QRgenie loads the Figtree and JetBrains Mono typefaces from Google Fonts. When your browser requests these files, Google may log your IP address as part of the font delivery process. This is governed by Google's Privacy Policy at policies.google.com/privacy. If you prefer, you can self-host the fonts and modify the HTML to load them locally instead.
Children's privacy
QRgenie is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the Service, please contact us via runtime-hub.com and we will take steps to remove it.
Your rights
Because we do not collect personal data, there is typically no data to access, correct, or delete. If you have concerns about data that may have been collected by our hosting provider (Cloudflare) or advertising partners, you may exercise your rights directly with those parties under applicable data protection law (including GDPR for EU residents and similar frameworks elsewhere).
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page indicates when it was last revised. Material changes will be reflected in that date. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
