What we do about it
We check the destination of dynamic codes against lists of known harmful sites, pause codes that show sudden unusual activity, and review reports. Codes that break these rules are paused or removed, and accounts can be closed. Where the law requires it, we inform the authorities.
Report a code
If you came across a code created with our service that leads somewhere harmful or deceptive, use the report page. Include the short address of the code (it contains /r/) or a photo of the code.
