Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our tools and privacy.

Is this QR code generator completely free?

Yes! ToolYug is 100% free with unlimited usage, no hidden fees, and no registration required.

Are generated QR codes permanent?

Yes. All generated QR codes are static, meaning the data is embedded directly into the matrix. They will work forever without expiring.

Is my data private and secure?

Absolutely. All processing and rendering happens 100% locally in your web browser. We do not store or transmit your passwords, contacts, or message data to external servers.

What format should I download for printing?

For professional print media (posters, banners, packaging), download the SVG format because vector graphics scale endlessly without loss of pixel clarity. For digital sharing or standard printing, PNG is ideal.

How do I test if my QR code works?

Point your smartphone camera at the screen or printed image. Ensure adequate color contrast (dark code on light background) and sufficient margin space.

Absolutely. All processing and rendering happens 100% locally in your web browser. We do not store or transmit your passwords, contacts, or message data to external servers.

Are these passwords saved anywhere?

No, everything is generated on your device and disappears when you close the tab.

How does this file transfer work without a server?

This tool uses WebRTC technology to establish a direct, peer-to-peer (P2P) connection between your two devices. Your files and messages are never sent to a central server; they flow directly from your sender device to your receiver device.

Does this require an internet connection?

No! Once the initial connection is established, the transfer happens entirely over your Local Area Network (LAN). If you are on the same Wi-Fi, it works incredibly fast even if the internet goes down.

Are there any file size limits?

No. Because files are streamed directly between devices and not uploaded to any server, there are no artificial file size limits. You can transfer massive files instantly.

Is my data secure?

Yes. WebRTC connections are end-to-end encrypted by default. Since there is no intermediary server, no one else can intercept or view your files.

What types of barcodes are supported?

We support all major retail and logistics formats including EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, Code 128, Code 39, ITF-14, and Codabar.

Are the generated barcodes suitable for printing?

Yes, you can download the generated barcodes as high-resolution PNGs or scalable SVGs, which are perfect for professional printing and packaging.

Does this tool require an internet connection to generate barcodes?

No. The barcode generation engine runs entirely locally in your browser. No data is sent to our servers.

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. The EXIF data is extracted using JavaScript directly inside your browser. Your photos never leave your device.

Why should I strip EXIF data?

When you take a photo with a smartphone, the exact GPS coordinates of where you took the photo are often embedded in the file. Stripping this data protects your privacy before sharing the photo on forums or social media.
