Your privacy is of the utmost importance to us. This comprehensive Privacy Policy outlines how QRDb and our white-label service Overtext (collectively, "we", "us", or "our") collect, use, process, and protect your information when you use our website, URL shortening services, QR code generator, SMS event blasts, and related tools (the "Services").

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information when you interact with our Services:

• Account Information: If you create an account, we may collect your email address, name, billing details, and customized domain preferences.
• Scan & Click Analytics: When a user scans a QR code or clicks a short link generated by our Services, we collect necessary analytics data, including IP addresses, user-agent strings (browser and device types), referring URLs, and click timestamps.
• Client Data & Mobile Numbers: For users utilizing our Smart SMS and Event Blast modules, you may upload lists of consented mobile phone numbers. We store these temporarily to perform Activeness Checks (HLR/MNP/Ping) and route messages.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information for the following purposes:

• To provide, operate, and maintain our Services, including real-time redirect routing and QR code generation.
• To generate aggregated, anonymized click and scan analytics for our users' dashboards.
• To perform necessary telecommunication checks (HLR Lookup, MNP Check) to ensure SMS deliverability.
• To prevent fraud, abuse, spam, and malicious activity on our platform.

3. Data Sharing and Third-Party Subprocessors

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to data brokers. However, we may share specific data with trusted partners strictly for operational purposes:

• Telecommunication Partners: To deliver SMS blasts and perform activeness checks, mobile numbers are securely passed to our verified global telecom routing partners.
• Cloud Hosting & CDN: We utilize secure, industry-standard cloud providers and Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) to host our application and ensure fast, reliable link redirection.
• Legal Compliance: We may disclose information if required to do so by law, court order, or governmental request to protect our legal rights or the safety of the public.

4. Data Security & Retention

We implement commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. Mobile number lists uploaded for SMS campaigns are processed and retained only as long as necessary to execute the requested campaigns and generate delivery reports.

5. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you. You may also opt-out of certain data processing activities. To exercise these rights, please contact us at hello@qrdb.co.
