Random access coding is an information task that has been extensively studied and found many applications in quantum information. In this scenario, Alice receives an $n$-bit string $x$, and wishes to encode $x$ into a quantum state $rho_x$, such that Bob, when receiving the state $rho_x$, can choose any bit $i in [n]$ and recover the input bit $x_i$ with high probability. Here we study two variants: parity-oblivious random access codes, where we impose the cryptographic property that Bob cannot infer any information about the parity of any subset of bits of the input apart from the single bits $x_i$; and even-parity-oblivious random access codes, where Bob cannot infer any information about the parity of any even-size subset of bits of the input. In this paper, we provide the optimal bounds for parity-oblivious quantum random access codes and show that they are asymptotically better than the optimal classical ones. Our results provide a large non-contextuality inequality violation and resolve the main open problem in a work of Spekkens, Buzacott, Keehn, Toner, and Pryde (2009). Second, we provide the optimal bounds for even-parity-oblivious random access codes by proving their equivalence to a non-local game and by providing tight bounds for the success probability of the non-local game via semidefinite programming. In the case of even-parity-oblivious random access codes, the cryptographic property holds also in the device-independent model.
