What you make is yours

We claim no ownership of anything a tool here produces — a QR code, a compressed image, a merged PDF, an exported note — and place no restriction on its use: commercial, personal, printed, resold, at any scale. You do not need to credit us. QR code technology specifically is also patent-free, so there is nothing to license there either.

No warranty

The service is provided as is. We make every effort to emit correct, standards-compliant output and test it against real devices, but scanner, viewer and codec behaviour varies across phones, apps and operating systems — a PDF that opens cleanly in one reader, or a QR code that scans on one phone, is not a guarantee it does everywhere.

Always test on the devices your audience will actually use before committing something to print or sending it on. We cannot accept liability for a code that fails to scan, a document that renders unexpectedly, a print run that has to be repeated, or a payment that does not reach you.

Acceptable use

Do not use these tools to:

  • Impersonate a person, business or payment recipient.
  • Direct people to malware, phishing pages or deceptive payment destinations.
  • Place a QR code over another organisation's code — a real and growing form of payment fraud.
  • Alter a document, image or note to misrepresent what it originally said or showed.
  • Break the law in your jurisdiction.

Availability

This is a free service with no uptime commitment. It may be unavailable, and it may change or end.

That risk is smaller than it would be for a typical web app, because nothing here depends on our service staying online to keep working. A static QR code contains its own data; a PDF, image or note you have already exported is just a file on your device. If this site disappeared tomorrow, everything you have already made from it keeps working. Any future feature that does depend on a service of ours staying up — a dynamic QR code, say — will say so prominently, because that trade-off is real.

Payment codes

UPI and PayPal codes are links to those payment systems. We are not a payment processor, we never handle funds, and we have no visibility of any transaction. Verify your own payment codes with a small test payment before displaying them publicly.

We use privacy-friendly analytics to see which pages get used — never what is inside a code you generate, which stays on this device either way. Read the privacy policy.
