Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about it3 URL shortener, QR codes, analytics, free tools, and accounts.
Is it3 really free?
Yes — core URL shortening, QR codes, and click analytics are free to start. No credit card required to try. Premium features may be offered later, but we keep essentials accessible.
Do I need an account to shorten a link?
You can shorten links from the homepage without signing up. Creating a free account unlocks your dashboard, link history, and advanced options like custom aliases and expiry dates.
What analytics do you track?
For each short link we record clicks over time, referrer, browser/device type, and approximate location derived from IP. You can view stats in your dashboard.
Are browser tools private?
Most tools (JSON formatter, encoders, generators) run entirely in your browser. Your input is not uploaded to our servers unless a tool explicitly says otherwise.
Can I use a custom short link alias?
Yes — registered users can set custom aliases when available. Aliases must be unique and comply with our Acceptable Use Policy.
How do QR codes work on it3?
Every short link can generate a scannable QR code. Print it on menus, packaging, posters, or business cards — scans count toward your link analytics.
What happens if I violate the Acceptable Use Policy?
We may disable links or suspend accounts that host phishing, malware, spam, or illegal content. Report abuse via our contact form.
How do I delete my account?
