We do not collect, transmit, store, or share merchant-presented QR payloads, merchant identifiers, generated QR data, payment routing structures, or personal information with external servers or third-party databases.
3. Cookies & Advertising
QR generation, decoding, TLV inspection, and CRC validation run locally in your browser. Those payment payloads are not uploaded for advertising. We use Google AdSense to support the platform. Google and its partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on prior visits to this site or other sites. You can control personalized advertising in Google Ads Settings. Non-personalized ads may still be shown where required by policy or regional rules. Ad units are placed in informational surfaces (for example Learn articles and selected content sections). We do not place ads over QR canvases, generator forms, or decoder results.
4. Third-Party Analytics
EMV QR Hub uses aggregated and anonymous Firebase Analytics to improve platform reliability, user experience, and feature optimization. This analytical data cannot be linked to specific QR payloads, merchant data, or individual payment structures.
5. EMVCo QR Technical Standards
The platform supports EMVCo QR interoperability workflows, TLV payload structuring, CRC integrity validation, merchant-presented QR architectures, and QR decoding operations for developers, fintech teams, merchants, and payment solution providers.
