6. Token Security Responsibility

Critical Notice: QR Code Statistics Token Security

User Responsibility

You bear full and exclusive responsibility for safeguarding your QR Code Statistics Token.
This token is the sole authentication credential used to access:

QR code analytics
Historical scan data
CSV data exports

Without this token, access is not possible.

Irrecoverable Access Credentials

Please note the following security constraints:

Tokens are cryptographically generated
Lost tokens cannot be recovered
Tokens cannot be reset or regenerated
Loss of a token results in permanent and irreversible loss of statistical access

No Recovery Services

QR Transition does not:

Token recovery
Access restoration
Data migration between tokens

This architecture is intentional and ensures maximum user privacy and data protection.

Security Best Practices

To protect your token, we strongly recommend:

Storing it in a trusted password manager
(1Password, LastPass, Bitwarden, etc.)
Creating secure backups in multiple locations
Never sharing tokens via unencrypted channels
Verifying token functionality immediately upon receipt

Liability Waiver

By using QR Transition services, you explicitly acknowledge and agree that:

You assume 100% responsibility for token security
QR Transition bears zero liability for lost tokens or inaccessible data
Sharing a token constitutes explicit authorization for third-party access
No refunds or service credits are issued for token-related access issues
