Privacy Policy
How ip-address.site handles IP lookup requests, analytics, Cloudflare processing, cookies, and third-party providers.
This policy explains how ip-address.site handles information when you visit the site or use the lookup tools.
IP lookup logs
The public site does not create user accounts or publish lookup history. Cloudflare may process request logs to deliver the site, protect it from abuse, and provide hosting and security services.
Cloudflare processing
The site is intended to run on Cloudflare Pages and Cloudflare Functions. Cloudflare can process visitor requests, IP addresses, headers, and metadata needed to route and secure traffic.
Analytics
The site may use GA4 or Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand traffic and improve content. Analytics should be configured in a privacy-conscious way, and analytics scripts are loaded only in production.
Cookies
The core IP lookup does not require a user account. Analytics or browser features may use cookies or similar storage depending on provider configuration.
Third-party IP data providers
For arbitrary IP or domain lookup, the site calls the following providers sequentially and returns the first valid result. Only the IP or domain value entered by the visitor is sent to these providers. The site does not share cookies, identifiers, or any other client state with them.
- IP2Location.io — primary geolocation provider. The site sends the queried IP or domain and receives country, region, city, postal code, timezone, latitude / longitude, ASN, and organization. The site holds an IP2Location.io API key as a Cloudflare Worker secret; the key is never sent to the browser or to site visitors. Privacy policy: https://www.ip2location.com/privacy-policy.
- DB-IP — first fallback. Sends the queried IP, receives country, region, and city. No API key is required. Privacy policy: https://db-ip.com/privacy.php.
- country.is — country-level final fallback. Sends the queried IP, receives country, optional city / subdivision / postal, location (latitude, longitude, accuracy radius, timezone), and ASN. No API key is required. Privacy policy: https://country.is/.
The provider chain is used only for user-initiated lookups. The default
landing-page query (/api/me) is served entirely from Cloudflare request
metadata and never calls any third-party provider.
DNS-over-HTTPS resolvers
Domain inputs are resolved through DNS-over-HTTPS before any geolocation lookup. The site calls:
- Cloudflare DNS (
https://cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query) first. - Google Public DNS (
https://dns.google/resolve) as a fallback when Cloudflare DNS is unreachable or returns no answer.
The queried domain name is sent to the chosen resolver. The site does not share cookies or client state with the resolver. Resolver logs are governed by the resolver’s own privacy policy: https://developers.cloudflare.com/1.1.1.1/privacy/ and https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/privacy.
