Terms and conditions — Scanner QR
1. Who we are and what these terms cover
The Scanner QR application for iPhone and iPad is developed and distributed by Davide Pergola, Pioltello (MI), Italy — email info@prgspace.com.
These terms govern your use of the app. By downloading and using it you accept them. If you do not accept them, do not use the app.
2. Licence
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to use the app on Apple devices you own or control, under the App Store rules.
The app remains our property: the licence covers use, not ownership. You may not copy, modify, decompile, resell or distribute it, except as the law allows.
3. What the app does
Scanner QR reads QR codes and barcodes with the camera or from a photo, and lets you create new ones. It works without connecting to the internet and collects no data: see the Privacy Policy.
4. The link safety check — what it is not
When a code contains a web address, the app flags whether that address shows characteristics common in scams: for example characters that imitate a well-known brand, shortened addresses, or a domain name whose form suggests it is very recent.
This check is help, not a guarantee.
- An address reported as “looks fine” may still be dangerous: the check relies on rules written into the app, not on any inspection of the website
- An address flagged as suspicious may be entirely legitimate
- The app does not visit the site, does not verify its content, and does not consult any updated list of dangerous websites
The decision to open an address remains yours. Never enter passwords, banking details or card details on a website reached through a QR code you found somewhere, whatever the app reported.
We are not liable for the consequences of opening addresses contained in the codes you scan, nor for the content of third-party websites.
5. The codes you create
The content you type in to create a code (addresses, text, Wi-Fi passwords, contact details) stays on your device: we neither see it nor receive it.
You are responsible for what you enter and for how you use the codes you generate. Do not use the app to create codes pointing to unlawful or deceptive content, or content infringing the rights of others.
Product barcodes (EAN, UPC and similar) generated by the app are useful for personal and organisational use; they are not registered codes with GS1 or any other body, and must not be used to place products on the market.
6. Acceptable use
You may not use the app to break the law, to circumvent other people’s security measures, or to attempt to alter or analyse how it works for unlawful purposes.
7. Availability and changes
The app is provided “as is”. We may update it, change its features or stop distributing it. Some features depend on your device and on your version of iOS.
Future versions may introduce advertising or in-app purchases: if so, these terms and the privacy policy will be updated before publication.
8. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect damages arising from use of the app, nor for malfunctions caused by your device, your operating system or third-party services.
Nothing in these terms limits our liability for wilful misconduct or gross negligence, nor the rights the law gives consumers, in particular under the Italian Consumer Code (Legislative Decree 206/2005) and equivalent mandatory rules in your country of residence.
9. Apple’s role
Apple is not a party to these terms and is not responsible for the app or its content. Any support request should be addressed to us, at the email address given. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.
10. Governing law
Italian law applies. If you are a consumer, the courts of the place where you reside or are domiciled remain competent, and the mandatory rights granted to you by the law of your country of residence in the European Union remain unaffected.
