<h3>External services</h3>
This plugin uses a third-party QR code API as a fallback when generating QR images:
Service: <code>https://api.qrserver.com/</code> (GoQR / QR Server API) 
Purpose: 
Used to obtain a base PNG QR code image for the short URL (<code>/q/<token></code>). The plugin then optionally composites this QR with a caption and branding.
Data sent: 
Only the short URL is sent as the <code>data</code> parameter in the QR request, for example:
<pre><code>https://api.qrserver.com/v1/create-qr-code/?size=300x300&data=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fq%2FAbC123%2F
</code></pre>
No personal data or user-identifying information is transmitted.
Terms and Privacy:
<ul>
<li>Terms: https://goqr.me/api/doc/create-qr-code/ </li>
<li>Privacy: https://goqr.me/privacy/</li>
</ul>
If the external API is unreachable, the plugin falls back to a plain QR URL and continues to function.
