QRSnap

Overview

QRSnap is a Chrome browser extension that generates a QR code for the page you are currently browsing — one click to download or copy as a PNG. This page describes how the extension handles data.

Data collection

QRSnap does not collect, transmit, or store any personal data. No analytics, no tracking, and no external requests of any kind are made by the extension.

What the extension does locally

When you open the popup, the extension reads the URL and title of your active tab using chrome.tabs.query. This information is used solely to generate the QR code and share card image inside your browser. Nothing is sent to any server — QR generation happens entirely on-device using the qrcode library bundled with the extension.

The generated image exists only in memory for the duration the popup is open. Closing the popup discards it. No data is written to disk, cookies, or any storage mechanism.

Permissions

The extension requests a single Chrome permission:

activeTab — to read the URL and title of the tab you have open at the moment you click the extension icon. Access is granted only for that single user gesture and does not persist.

No other permissions are requested or used.

Third-party services

QRSnap does not use any third-party services, SDKs, or analytics libraries.
