International data transfers

QRTudo is hosted on Hostinger, a company headquartered in Lithuania (European Union). Our infrastructure operates within the EU, meaning your data does not leave the European Economic Area for our primary hosting.

EU adequacy framework applies — No Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) are required for our primary hosting relationship.

We use ip-api.com (US-based) to derive approximate geographic location from IP addresses for analytics. This constitutes a transfer to a third country. We are monitoring the EU-US Data Privacy Framework for applicability and will update this page as our compliance position evolves.

Frequently asked questions — GDPR

No. QRTudo's infrastructure is hosted in the EU (Hostinger, Lithuania). Your scan data remains within the European Economic Area.

Legitimate Interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We process technical scan data (IP, device type, timestamp) to provide analytics services to our customers. This processing is necessary, proportionate, and balanced against your interests.

Yes. Email [email protected] with "GDPR Request — Erasure" as the subject. We will confirm deletion within 30 days.

No cookies are set during the QR scan itself. Cookies may be set by the destination website after redirection — those are under the destination site's privacy policy, not QRTudo's.

QRTudo acts as a data processor for our customers (who are data controllers). We process scan data on their behalf and under their instructions. We maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect this data.
