Compliance, Sovereignty & In-Country Hosting
Every government has unique regulatory, security, and data sovereignty requirements. QRZone aligns with compliance frameworks worldwide and provides in-country hosting to ensure citizen data never crosses borders.
Within-Country Deployment & Hosting
QRZone's government plans are deployed and hosted entirely within the country of the government entity. Citizen scan data, analytics, QR code configurations, and all associated metadata reside in data centers within the country's borders. For countries without local cloud presence, QRZone supports on-premises deployment within government-operated data centers. This is not optional for government plans -- it is the default architecture.

Why This Matters
Government agencies worldwide are the first adopters of O2O (Online-to-Offline) infrastructure. Public services -- from permits to health records to transit -- require digitization that connects physical touchpoints to digital services. No other QR platform publicly offers structured government procurement support with tender specification assistance, in-country hosting guarantees, and compliance framework alignment as a standard service.
