These terms of service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Free QR Codes website at free-qr-codes.net (the “Site”) and the QR code generator tool (the “Tool”) provided by Free QR Codes (“we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
1. Use of the Tool
Our QR code generator is provided free of charge for personal and commercial use. You may use the Tool to create QR codes for any lawful purpose, including but not limited to business cards, marketing materials, restaurant menus, event management, and personal projects.
You agree not to use the Tool to:

2. Intellectual Property
The QR codes you generate using our Tool are yours to use freely. We do not claim any ownership or rights over QR codes created through the Tool. The QR code standard is an open international standard (ISO/IEC 18004), and the codes themselves are not proprietary.

This includes, without limitation, damages for loss of profits, data, or business opportunities.
Our total liability for any claim arising from your use of the Site or Tool shall not exceed the amount you paid to use the service, which is zero dollars ($0.00) as the Tool is provided free of charge.
