Privacy policy

Last updated November 7, 2026

QR Forward is run by Rec-Safe (RECSAFE), a Washington corporation ("we" and "us"). This policy says what QR Forward keeps about you, why, who else sees it, and what you can do about it. It covers QR Forward only; our other sites and apps have their own.

What we keep

When you use QR Forward, we keep:

• each code's title, message, and the link it forwards to
• a scrambled (hashed) password, if you set one
• the IP addresses of failed sign-ins

Like any website, our servers also keep a short log of the pages asked for (with the IP address, the browser, and the time), to keep the site running and safe. We don't use analytics, advertising, or tracking services.

Why we keep it

Only to run QR Forward for you: to show you your own things, to send the emails it needs to, and to keep it working and secure. We don't sell or rent your information, we don't show ads, and we don't use it for anything else.

Who else sees it

Anyone who scans a code sees its page and is sent on to its link.

We use these services to run QR Forward, and each sees only what it needs:

• Amazon Web Services, which hosts our servers in the United States, where everything the app keeps is stored

We'd share information if the law makes us (a court order, for example), or to protect someone's safety. If Rec-Safe ever handed QR Forward to someone else, this policy would go with it.

Cookies

QR Forward uses one cookie, so the browser that made a code can change it.

How long we keep it, and deleting it

We keep your information while you use QR Forward. To have what you entered deleted, email us and we'll do it, apart from anything the law makes us keep (such as payment records). Server logs are kept only as long as they're needed to run and protect the site, and backups are overwritten in time.

Keeping it safe

Every page uses an encrypted connection (HTTPS). Access is limited to the people who need it. No website is perfectly secure, but if something ever goes wrong in a way that puts your information at real risk, we'll tell you, and the authorities when the law requires it.

Children

QR Forward isn't meant for children under 13, and we don't knowingly keep a child's information. If you think a child has given us theirs, email us and we'll delete it.

Your choices and rights

You can ask us what we keep about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, by emailing info@rec-safe.com. We'll answer within 30 days. Depending on where you live (for example in Canada, a US state such as Washington or California, the UK, or the EU), the law may give you more rights, and we honour them for everyone.

Our servers are in the United States, so if you're elsewhere, your information is stored and handled there, under US law. In Canada, if you're not satisfied with our answer, you can complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.

Changes and questions

If we change this policy, we'll change the date at the top, and if a change is big, we'll say so on QR Forward first. Questions? Email info@rec-safe.com.
