At LinkTraceIQ, we value your privacy above all else. This policy outlines how we handle your data across our URL shortening and QR code platform.
1. Introduction
Welcome to the LinkTraceIQ Privacy Policy. This document explains our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information that we receive when you use our website and services.
By using our platform, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with these terms, please refrain from using our platform.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 User-Provided Information
When you create an account, we collect your email address, name, and billing information. This is necessary to provide personalised dashboard access and manage your subscriptions.
2.2 URL & QR Metadata
We collect the original URLs you provide for shortening and the content embedded in generated QR codes. We also collect metadata about when and where these links were generated.

- Referring website (if applicable)
