Short links and QR codes are trusted by the people who click and scan them. To keep that trust, you may not use Lynqr to create, host or point to anything that:
- Phishes or scams: pages that impersonate a brand, bank or person, harvest passwords or payment details, or trick people out of money.
- Spreads malware: viruses, ransomware, spyware, unwanted software or drive-by downloads.
- Is spam: unsolicited bulk messages, or links used to evade spam filters.
- Hides a harmful destination: redirect chains or cloaking designed to show reviewers something different from what visitors get.
- Is illegal: including child sexual abuse material, sale of illegal goods, or content that infringes someone's intellectual property or privacy.
- Harms people: threats, harassment, incitement to violence, or the non-consensual sharing of intimate images.
- Abuses the service: attacking or overloading Lynqr, getting around limits, suspensions or blocklists, or reselling access without permission.
What we do about it
When we find or are told about content that breaks this policy, we may, without prior notice:
- disable the link or QR code, so visitors see a "disabled" page instead of the destination;
- block the destination domain for all customers;
- suspend the workspace (it becomes read-only and all of its links and QR codes stop working) or the account;
- report illegal content to the relevant authorities.
Owners see when Lynqr has disabled one of their links or QR codes and can't re-enable it themselves. If you think we got it wrong, email [email protected].
