Politique de confidentialité

1. Introduction

Cette politique de confidentialité explique comment Mostly Tiny Ltd (« nous », « nous », « nos ») collecte, utilise, partage et protÚge vos données personnelles lorsque vous utilisez mostlyqr.com, et les droits que vous avez sur ces données. Elle s'applique aux données personnelles pour lesquelles nous agissons en tant que responsable du traitement. Date d'entrée en vigueur : 2026-10-07.

2. Qui nous sommes et comment nous contacter

Mostly Tiny Ltd est le responsable du traitement de vos données personnelles. Vous pouvez nous contacter au sujet de cette politique, ou pour exercer vos droits, à privacy@mostlytiny.io.

Studio M, Hackney Depot, 5 Sheep Lane, London E8 4QS, United Kingdom

3. Our representative in the European Union

Mostly Tiny Ltd is established in the United Kingdom. We are appointing a representative in the European Union under Article 27 of the EU GDPR and will name them here. Until then, people in the EU can contact us directly at privacy@mostlytiny.io.

4. Données personnelles que nous collectons

Nous collectons : les informations que vous nous fournissez directement (par exemple account details (name, email); the QR codes, short links, hosted pages and forms you create (destinations and content); Batch QR details (see below); scan analytics about the people who scan your codes (see "Scan data we hold for you"); payment and billing details; product usage; and, only with your consent, how you arrived (see "How we learn where visitors come from")) ; les informations collectées automatiquement lors de votre utilisation de mostlyqr.com, comme votre adresse IP, le type d'appareil et navigateur, les pages consultées et les identifiants de cookies ; et, le cas échéant, les informations que nous recevons de tiers.

Nous collectons des données personnelles dans les catégories ci-dessus pour les fins énoncées dans cette politique.

5. D'oĂč proviennent vos donnĂ©es

Lorsque nous ne collectons pas vos données personnelles directement auprÚs de vous, nous les obtenons auprÚs de sources telles que nos prestataires de services, partenaires en analyse et publicité, sources accessibles au public, et d'autres tiers que vous avez autorisés à les partager.

6. Comment et pourquoi nous utilisons vos données

Nous utilisons vos données personnelles pour : fournir, exploiter et améliorer mostlyqr.com et nos services ; créer et gérer votre compte ; répondre aux demandes et fournir une assistance ; personnaliser votre expérience ; envoyer des messages de service et, si autorisé, de marketing ; sécuriser le service et prévenir la fraude ; et nous conformer à nos obligations légales.

7. Scan data we hold for you

When someone scans a MostlyQR code or opens an mqr.sh link on a paid plan, we record for the code's owner: the time; the country and region (not the city); the type of browser, operating system and device (not the full browser identification string); the browser's preferred language; the referring page; an approximate location derived from the IP address and rounded to about 1 km; a salted one-way hash of the IP address, used to count unique scans; and how the scan was routed. We do not store the IP address itself. If a person chooses to share their location on a hosted page, we store it rounded to the same ~1 km. On the free plan we keep only a scan count and the time of the last scan.

We process scan data and form submissions on behalf of the code's owner, who is the controller, under our Data Processing Agreement. If the owner connects an integration — their own webhook, or Meta's Conversions API — we send scan events to that recipient on their instruction; it is their recipient, not ours. If the owner has set a webhook to receive exact location, a location the scanner chose to share is forwarded to it unrounded (we do not store it). If you scanned a code, contact the business that published it first.

8. Batch QR details

A Batch QR code gives each person or product in a list its own code. The details you add to each one — for example a name, title or photo, which can appear on that person's profile page — are held on behalf of the account owner, who is the controller, under our Data Processing Agreement. Profile pages are not listed in search engines and their addresses cannot be guessed.

When the owner deletes a person or their account, those details are erased. When a batch is archived, its details are erased 30 days later. An erased person's code keeps working, but points to the batch's archive page and shows none of their details. If you are in someone's batch, contact the business that created it first.

9. The free QR code checker

The QR code checker at mostlyqr.com/qr-code-checker works without an account. If you upload a photo, the code in it is read inside your browser; the photo is never sent to us. We receive only the link the code contains (or the link you paste). Our servers then follow that link and any redirects once, to show you where it ends up, and send the result back to you. The websites along the way see a request from our servers, identified as "MostlyQR-LinkCheck/1.0 (+https://mostlyqr.com/qr-code-checker)". We do not keep the link or the result.

To keep the checker free, we limit how often it can be used. We count your requests under a keyed hash of your IP address, a scrambled form that cannot be turned back into the address without a secret key we hold, and each count is deleted automatically after its one-hour window, usually within about two days. We do this in our legitimate interest in preventing abuse of a free service.

10. How we learn where visitors come from

Fathom Analytics counts visits to mostlyqr.com without cookies and without identifying you, including which website, campaign or AI assistant referred a visit. In the UK we rely on the statistical-purposes exception in the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations. You can object at any time by switching off "Analytics" in Cookie settings, which turns Fathom off for your browser.

We also keep our own anonymous daily totals of visitors who arrive from an advert: how many land, open our editor, sign up and buy, by ad platform and landing page. The ad platform and page name travel in the web address of our own pages; nothing is stored on or read from your device, no cookie is used, and the totals are never linked to you or your account. Because no storage on your device is involved, this counting continues whatever you choose in Cookie settings.

If you accept Analytics or Marketing cookies, our site also remembers in your browser how you first and most recently arrived (campaign tags, the referring site and the page you landed on) and attaches it to your account when you sign up, so we can see which channels bring us customers. If you do not accept, we keep none of this. The one exception is a referral code, if you followed a friend's referral link: we keep it only to credit that referral.

When you sign up, subscribe or cancel, our servers record that event against your account in PostHog (EU), to measure how our business is doing. We rely on our legitimate interests for this; you can object by emailing privacy@mostlytiny.io.

11. Emails we send you

We email you what you need to use MostlyQR: sign-in links, receipts, billing and security notices, and messages about your account. These are part of the service, so you cannot turn them off while your account is open.

We may also send you tips and offers about MostlyQR (onboarding tips, a note when you reach a free-plan limit, and a note if you cancel). The sign-up form has a box for these, ticked by default: untick it and we never send them. In the UK this is the "soft opt-in" in regulation 22 of the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations; our lawful basis under the UK GDPR is our legitimate interest in telling customers about the product they signed up for, and you can object at any time.

We email you about other Mostly Tiny products (MostlyPDF, MostlySign, MostlyPrivacy, MostlyRender and Vekta) only if you asked us to, by ticking a box that is never ticked for you, either when you sign up or later in a product. Our lawful basis is your consent. We send at most one such email a month across all of them.

Every marketing email says why you are getting it, has an unsubscribe link, and supports your email app's one-click unsubscribe button. One click stops that kind of email; the linked preferences page lets you choose exactly what you get, or stop all marketing email from every Mostly Tiny product at once. You can also change this in your Mostly Tiny account at id.mostlytiny.io/settings. Withdrawing is as easy as agreeing, and never affects service email.

To show we had your agreement, we record each choice: which box, the exact wording you saw, when, and a keyed one-way hash of your IP address. We store your choices against a one-way hash of your email address. If an address bounces permanently or a message is reported as spam, we stop all marketing email to it. Our do-not-email list keeps only that hash, never your address, so it continues to protect you after you close your account.

12. Nos bases légales de traitement

Lorsque le RGPD de l'UE ou du Royaume-Uni s'applique, nous traitons vos donnĂ©es personnelles sur la base d'une ou plusieurs bases lĂ©gales en vertu de l'article 6 : votre consentement ; l'exĂ©cution d'un contrat avec vous ; le respect d'une obligation lĂ©gale ; la protection d'intĂ©rĂȘts vitaux ; l'exĂ©cution d'une tĂąche d'intĂ©rĂȘt public ; ou nos intĂ©rĂȘts lĂ©gitimes (ou ceux d'un tiers), sauf s'ils sont remplacĂ©s par vos intĂ©rĂȘts ou droits.

Lorsque nous nous appuyons sur les intĂ©rĂȘts lĂ©gitimes, ceux-ci incluent l'exploitation et la sĂ©curisation de nos services, la comprĂ©hension de leur utilisation et le marketing limitĂ© — vous pouvez vous opposer Ă  tout moment. Lorsque nous traitons des catĂ©gories spĂ©ciales de donnĂ©es personnelles en vertu de l'article 9 (par exemple les donnĂ©es de santĂ© ou biomĂ©triques), nous le faisons uniquement avec votre consentement explicite ou une autre condition autorisĂ©e par la loi.

13. Avec qui nous partageons vos données

Nous partageons les données personnelles avec : les prestataires de services et les processeurs qui exploitent mostlyqr.com en notre nom (par exemple Google Firebase and Google Cloud: hosting, sign-in, database, functions (where, see "Where your data is stored"); Cloudflare: security and approximate location for mqr.sh scan links; Stripe: payments; Fathom Analytics: cookie-free statistics; PostHog (EU): product analytics; Resend: email; Google Safe Browsing and Web Risk: malware/phishing checks on QR destinations; and our own Mostly Tiny services MostlyID, MostlyPrivacy, MostlyRender and Vekta; the unpkg and jsDelivr CDNs and Google Fonts, which serve code and fonts to your browser in the dashboard and so see its IP address), qui ne peuvent l'utiliser que selon nos instructions ; les conseillers professionnels, les prestataires de paiement et les autorités chargées de l'application de la loi ou les autorités de régulation le cas échéant ; et les parties à une opération de fusion-acquisition. Nous ne vendons pas vos données personnelles contre rémunération.

14. Advertising and measuring our adverts

We may advertise MostlyQR on Google, on Microsoft Advertising (Bing, Microsoft Copilot and partner sites) and in ChatGPT. Only if you accept "Marketing" cookies do we load those platforms' tags and, when you arrive from one of our adverts, keep the click identifier the platform added to the link (gclid, gbraid or wbraid for Google; msclkid for Microsoft; oppref for ChatGPT).

If you then subscribe, we tell only the platform whose advert you clicked that it led to a purchase: the click identifier, the time, the value and currency, and — for matching — your email address as a one-way SHA-256 hash. We never send your raw email address, the QR codes you create or your scan data.

Our legal basis is your consent. You can withdraw it at any time in Cookie settings: we then delete the click identifier from your browser and report nothing further, including for a subscription that starts after you withdrew.

Google receives this data under the Google Ads Data Processing Terms (as our processor for enhanced conversions, and as an independent controller for its advertising services); Microsoft and OpenAI receive it as independent controllers. Their privacy notices: policies.google.com/privacy, privacy.microsoft.com/privacystatement and openai.com/policies/privacy-policy. All three are in the United States; transfers rely on the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework where the recipient is certified, and otherwise on the UK International Data Transfer Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.

15. Transferts de données internationaux

Certains de nos prestataires de services sont situĂ©s en dehors de votre pays, y compris en dehors de l'EEA, du Royaume-Uni ou de l'Australie. Lorsque nous transfĂ©rons des donnĂ©es personnelles Ă  l'international, nous nous appuyons sur un mĂ©canisme de transfert lĂ©gal — tel qu'une dĂ©cision d'adĂ©quation, les clauses contractuelles types de l'UE (avec l'avenant de transfert de donnĂ©es international du Royaume-Uni le cas Ă©chĂ©ant), ou une autre garantie autorisĂ©e par la loi — et prenons des mesures pour protĂ©ger vos donnĂ©es. Des dĂ©tails sont disponibles sur demande Ă  privacy@mostlytiny.io.

16. Where your data is stored

MostlyQR runs on Google Cloud and Firebase: database in the EU (eur3 multi-region: Belgium and the Netherlands, with a witness replica in Finland); server functions in the UK (europe-west2, London); uploaded logos, images and print assets in the United States (us-east1).

Sign-in uses Firebase Authentication, which Google runs only in the United States, and a Mostly Tiny account you sign in with is held by Mostly Tiny ID, whose database is in the United States. Our website is served from Google's global network (Firebase Hosting).

Transfers from the UK to the EU are approved under UK law, which treats transfers to EEA states as approved (Data Protection Act 2018, Schedule 21). Transfers to Google LLC in the United States rely on the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (and, for data under the EU GDPR, on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework), to both of which Google LLC is certified. If you are in the EU, your personal data reaches our servers in the UK under the European Commission's adequacy decision for the UK (Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/1772, as amended by Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2574).

17. Durée de conservation de vos données

Nous conservons les données personnelles uniquement aussi longtemps que nécessaire aux fins décrites dans cette politique. AprÚs cela, nous les supprimons ou les anonymisons. Les critÚres que nous utilisons pour fixer les périodes de conservation incluent la nature et la sensibilité des données, la finalité du traitement, et nos obligations légales, comptables et de reporting (account data until you delete your account; Batch QR details as set out in "Batch QR details"; scan analytics for the account's lifetime, within your plan's limits; how you arrived (if you consented) for the account's lifetime; billing records as tax law requires; and a reported advertising conversion for as long as the subscription it relates to).

18. Comment nous protégeons vos données

Nous utilisons des mesures techniques et organisationnelles appropriĂ©es — notamment le chiffrement en transit, les contrĂŽles d'accĂšs et l'examen rĂ©gulier — pour protĂ©ger les donnĂ©es personnelles contre la perte, l'utilisation abusive et l'accĂšs non autorisĂ©. Aucune mĂ©thode de transmission ou de stockage n'est complĂštement sĂ©curisĂ©e, nous ne pouvons donc pas garantir une sĂ©curitĂ© absolue.

19. Cookies et technologies similaires

Nous utilisons des cookies et des technologies similaires sur mostlyqr.com. Pour plus d'informations sur les cookies que nous utilisons, leur finalité, leur durée de conservation et comment les contrÎler, consultez notre Politique relative aux cookies.

20. Prise de décision automatisée

Nous ne prenons pas de dĂ©cisions produisant des effets juridiques ou similaires significatifs vous concernant basĂ©es uniquement sur un traitement automatisĂ©, y compris le profilage, sauf si la loi le permet. Dans l'hypothĂšse oĂč nous le ferions, nous vous l'indiquerons, expliquerons la logique impliquĂ©e et offrirons le droit d'obtenir un examen humain.

21. Confidentialité des enfants

mostlyqr.com n'est pas destinĂ© aux enfants. Nous ne collectons pas sciemment de donnĂ©es personnelles auprĂšs des enfants au-dessous de l'Ăąge du consentement numĂ©rique qui s'applique Ă  eux (16 ans selon le GDPR, sauf pour les Ăąges nationaux infĂ©rieurs jusqu'Ă  13 ans), et nous ne vendons ni ne partageons sciemment les informations personnelles des consommateurs que nous savons ĂȘtre ĂągĂ©s de moins de 16 ans. Si vous pensez qu'un enfant nous a communiquĂ© des donnĂ©es, contactez-nous Ă  privacy@mostlytiny.io et nous les supprimerons.

22. Vos droits en vertu du GDPR

Si le GDPR de l'UE ou du Royaume-Uni s'applique Ă  vous, vous avez le droit de : ĂȘtre informĂ© ; accĂ©der Ă  vos donnĂ©es personnelles ; faire rectifier les donnĂ©es inexactes ; faire supprimer vos donnĂ©es ; restreindre le traitement ; la portabilitĂ© des donnĂ©es ; et vous opposer au traitement, y compris au marketing direct. Lorsque le traitement est fondĂ© sur le consentement, vous pouvez le retirer Ă  tout moment sans affecter le traitement effectuĂ© auparavant.

Pour exercer l'un de ces droits, contactez-nous à privacy@mostlytiny.io. Nous répondrons dans un délai d'un mois, que nous pouvons prolonger de deux mois supplémentaires pour les demandes complexes ou nombreuses, en vous informant dans le premier mois. Vous avez également le droit de déposer une plainte auprÚs de votre autorité de contrÎle de la protection des données.

23. Autorité de contrÎle du Royaume-Uni

Si vous ĂȘtes au Royaume-Uni, le GDPR du Royaume-Uni et la Loi de 2018 sur la protection des donnĂ©es s'appliquent, et vous pouvez vous plaindre auprĂšs du Bureau du Commissaire Ă  l'information (ICO) Ă  ico.org.uk.

24. How to complain to us

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your personal data, email privacy@mostlytiny.io with "Complaint" in the subject. We will acknowledge your complaint within 30 days, look into it, and tell you the outcome without undue delay. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at any time.

25. If you are in the United States

We do not sell personal information. Measuring our adverts, described above, can count as "sharing" under some US state privacy laws; it happens only if you accept Marketing cookies, and we treat a Global Privacy Control signal from your browser as a refusal. To ask what we hold about you, or to have it corrected or deleted, email privacy@mostlytiny.io.

26. Modifications de cette politique

Nous pouvons mettre à jour cette Politique de confidentialité de temps en temps. Nous afficherons la version mise à jour ici avec une nouvelle date d'entrée en vigueur et, lorsque les modifications sont importantes, prendrons des mesures raisonnables pour vous informer.

27. Nous contacter

Pour toute question, demande ou plainte concernant la façon dont nous gérons vos données personnelles, contactez Mostly Tiny Ltd à privacy@mostlytiny.io.
