Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 21, 2026 · IP Checker

This Privacy Policy explains how IP Checker ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you visit https://ipchecker.online and use our free IP and network tools.

1. Who we are

IP Checker is operated by IP Checker. For privacy-related questions, contact privacy@ipchecker.online.

2. Information we collect

Depending on which tools you use, we may process:

Your public IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) and connection metadata needed to run lookups
Query parameters you submit (domains, IP addresses, URLs for DNS/WHOIS/port tools)
Standard server logs (timestamp, requested path, referrer, user-agent, approximate region from headers)
Browser information when you use fingerprint or browser-info tools (processed locally in your browser where possible)
Theme and UI preferences stored in your browser (localStorage)
Cookie consent choices (localStorage)

We do not require account registration. We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal categories (health, financial, government ID) through our tools.

3. How we use information

Provide real-time IP lookup, DNS, WHOIS, speed test, and other network diagnostic results
Protect the service (rate limiting, abuse prevention, security headers)
Improve reliability and fix errors
Comply with legal obligations
Display advertising when enabled (see Section 7)

4. Third-party services

IP Checker relies on trusted public and commercial APIs to return accurate results. When you run a tool, relevant data may be sent to providers such as:

ipify, ipinfo.io, ipapi.co, ip-api.com — IP and geolocation
Google Public DNS — DNS resolution
RDAP/WHOIS registries — domain and IP registration data
Cloudflare Speed Test — bandwidth measurements
Have I Been Pwned (optional) — breach checks when you submit an email
Google AdSense (when enabled) — advertising
Google Analytics or similar (if configured by the site operator)

Each third party has its own privacy policy. We encourage you to review their terms. We do not sell your personal information to data brokers.

5. Data retention

Tool queries are processed in real time. Server logs may be retained for a limited period (typically up to 90 days) for security and operations. Data stored only in your browser (recent searches, favorites, cookie consent) remains until you clear it.

6. Your rights

Depending on your location (including GDPR in the EU/UK and CCPA in California), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of personal data. To exercise these rights, email privacy@ipchecker.online. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

7. Cookies and advertising

We use essential cookies for site functionality and theme. With your consent, we may use advertising and analytics cookies. Google AdSense and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites. You can manage preferences via our cookie banner or read our Cookie Policy. Opt out of personalized ads at Google Ads Settings.

8. Children

Our services are not directed at children under 13 (or 16 in the EU). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

9. International users

Our servers and third-party providers may process data in the United States and other countries. By using IP Checker, you understand your information may be transferred internationally.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the current version. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance.
