Lacking Privacy Notice / Third Party Gets Data

This application appears to send any QR data entered to https://api.qrserver.com which is operated by a marketing company goQR.me, Nothing about the documentation states that this is not a fully self-hosted application for QR codes as implied by the site information. It should be declared upfront this requires an external API service and that any data entered for QR code generation is being shipped off to a third party. I'm not saying there's anything nefarious with goQR.me, but it should be stated up-front that data is being sent elsewhere.

hi, you are right, thanks for letting me know. As soon as possible I will update the documentation where I will explicitly indicate which service is used to generate the qr codes!

I've updated documentation, thanks for contributing to the project!
