We are Profecio, LLC, doing business as QR Star ("Company," "we," "us," "our"), a company registered in California, United States at 11 27th Ave, Unit 204, Venice, CA 90291.

We operate the website https://www.qrstar.com (the "Site"), as well as any other related products and services that refer or link to these legal terms (the "Legal Terms") (collectively, the "Services").

You can contact us by email at qrstar@qrstar.com or by mail to 11 27th Ave, #204, Los Angeles, CA 90291, United States.

These Legal Terms constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ("you"), and Profecio, LLC, concerning your access to and use of the Services. You agree that by accessing the Services, you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all of these Legal Terms. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, THEN YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM USING THE SERVICES AND YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.

The Services are intended solely for users who are at least 18 years old. Persons under 18 are not permitted to use or register for the Services.

1. OUR SERVICES

The information and tools provided when using the Services are not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction.

The Services are not tailored to comply with industry-specific regulations (such as HIPAA, FISMA, or GLBA). If your activities require compliance with such frameworks, you may not use the Services.

2. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

We are the owner or the licensee of all intellectual property rights in our Services, including source code, databases, functionality, software, website designs, audio, video, text, photographs, and graphics (collectively, the "Content"), as well as the trademarks, service marks, and logos contained therein (the "Marks").

Subject to your compliance with these Legal Terms, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access the Services solely for your internal business or personal use.

3. USER REPRESENTATIONS

By using the Services, you represent and warrant that: (1) all registration information you submit will be true, accurate, current, and complete; (2) you will maintain the accuracy of such information; (3) you have legal capacity and agree to comply with these Legal Terms; (4) you are not a minor; (5) you will not access the Services through automated or non-human means; (6) you will not use the Services for any illegal or unauthorized purpose; and (7) your use will not violate any applicable law or regulation.

4. USER REGISTRATION

You agree to keep your account credentials confidential and remain fully responsible for all activity conducted through your account. We reserve the right to remove, reclaim, or change a username you select if we determine it to be inappropriate or offensive.

5. PURCHASES AND PAYMENT

We accept major credit cards including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase and account details for all transactions. All payments are billed in US Dollars.

6. SUBSCRIPTIONS AND REFUND POLICY

Recurring Billing: Subscription plans automatically renew at the end of each billing interval unless canceled prior to the renewal date. You authorize us to charge your payment method on file for the agreed recurring amount.

Lifetime Deals (LTD): Any "Lifetime" plan or purchase refers specifically to the active lifetime of the QR Star product and its continued operation by Profecio LLC, not the lifetime of the purchaser.

Refund Policy: Except as explicitly governed by third-party marketplace guarantees (such as AppSumo's 60-day refund policy, which must be processed directly through their platform), standard direct purchases on our platform are non-refundable.

No Refunds on Policy Violations: Under no circumstances will refunds, prorated credits, or fee returns be issued to any user whose account is terminated due to spam, phishing, abusive routing, or blacklisting violations under Section 7.

7. ACCEPTABLE USE & STRICT ANTI-SPAM POLICY

QR Star provides mission-critical dynamic QR routing infrastructure. To safeguard our shared routing domains, IP reputations, and customer delivery standards, we enforce an absolute Zero-Tolerance Policy against abusive, deceptive, and harmful traffic.

8. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES

You may not access or use the Services for any purpose other than that for which we make them available. As a user of the Services, you agree not to:

• Systematically scrape or collect data or directory listings from the Services without written permission from us.
• Circumvent, disable, or interfere with security features of the Services or features that enforce usage limitations.
• Engage in unauthorized framing of or linking to the Services.
• Upload or transmit viruses, Trojan horses, automated bots, or continuous posting mechanisms that degrade our routing speed.
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the software making up the Services.
• Use the platform to harass, abuse, defraud, or impersonate other users or entities.
• Resell, rent, or transfer your user credentials or dashboard access without our authorization.

9. USER GENERATED CONTRIBUTIONS

When you create QR codes, metadata, titles, or associated digital assets ("Contributions"), you warrant that your content does not infringe the intellectual property rights of any third party, is not unlawful or defamatory, and does not violate any applicable advertising or consumer protection statutes.

10. CONTRIBUTION LICENSE

You retain full ownership of your data and destination content. You grant QR Star a worldwide, royalty-free license solely to route, cache, and transmit your data as required to operate the dynamic scan services.

11. SOCIAL MEDIA

If you connect third-party social accounts to our Services, you represent that you are authorized to disclose your account connection details to us without violating third-party terms of service.

12. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES & ATTRIBUTION

The Services incorporate third-party data providers, payment gateways, and geolocation databases to power scan routing and analytics. We are not responsible for third-party destination websites linked via user-created QR codes.

13. SERVICES MANAGEMENT

We reserve the right, but not the obligation, to: (1) monitor the Services for violations of these Legal Terms; (2) take appropriate legal action against anyone who violates the law or these terms; (3) disable or delete burdensome or abusive QR targets; and (4) manage the infrastructure to ensure uninterrupted uptime for all lawful customers.

14. PRIVACY POLICY & SCAN ANALYTICS

We take digital privacy seriously. When end users scan a QR Star dynamic code, our infrastructure processes the scan request to extract non-identifying country and city analytics. Raw IP addresses are mathematically anonymized using cryptographic one-way hashes (HMAC-SHA256) and are never stored in plain text. Please review our full Privacy Policy.

15. TERM AND TERMINATION

These Legal Terms remain in full effect while you use our Services. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER PROVISION, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO TERMINATE YOUR ACCESS (INCLUDING BLOCKING SPECIFIC IP ADDRESSES OR DEACTIVATING SPECIFIC QR CODES) AT ANY TIME, WITHOUT NOTICE OR LIABILITY, FOR ANY VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS, INCLUDING OUR ANTI-SPAM POLICY.

16. MODIFICATIONS AND INTERRUPTIONS

We reserve the right to modify or discontinue the Services at our discretion. We are not liable for any downtime, technical interruptions, or maintenance windows that may temporarily affect routing.

17. GOVERNING LAW

These Legal Terms and your use of the Services are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law principles.

18. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Legal Terms shall be resolved through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in Los Angeles, California. You agree to resolve all disputes individually and waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit.

19. CORRECTIONS

We reserve the right to correct typographical errors, pricing inaccuracies, or omissions on the Site at any time without prior notice.

20. DISCLAIMER

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS-IS" AND "AS-AVAILABLE" BASIS. WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

23. USER DATA

While we perform regular automated backups, you are solely responsible for maintaining backup records of your QR configurations and target assets.

24. ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS & SIGNATURES
