This Privacy Policy explains how WhatAnIP collects, uses and protects information when you visit whatanip.com and use our IP, DNS, network, security and privacy tools.
Information We Process
When you visit WhatAnIP, our servers may automatically receive technical information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, requested pages, referring page, date and time of access, and basic connection information.
Some tools allow you to submit IP addresses, domain names, hostnames, CIDR ranges or URLs for technical lookups. This information is processed only as necessary to provide the requested tool result.
Analytics
WhatAnIP uses Google Analytics through Google Tag Manager to understand how visitors use the website. Analytics data may include page views, device information, approximate location, browser information and interaction data.
Google may process this information according to its own privacy policies. Where required by law, analytics storage and related technologies may be subject to user consent.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
WhatAnIP may use cookies or similar technologies for analytics, security, site functionality, preferences and advertising.
If advertising services such as Google AdSense are enabled, third-party vendors including Google may use cookies or other technologies to serve, measure and personalize advertisements where permitted.
Advertising
WhatAnIP may display advertisements provided by Google AdSense or other advertising partners.
Advertising providers may use cookies or similar technologies to measure ad performance, prevent fraud and, where permitted and consented to, personalize advertising.
Users in regions where consent is required may be shown a consent management interface before certain advertising or analytics technologies are activated.
Third-Party Services
Some WhatAnIP tools rely on third-party network, DNS, WHOIS, reputation, security or geolocation services. When you use those tools, the query you submit may be transmitted to the relevant provider so that the requested result can be returned.
Third-party providers process data according to their own terms and privacy policies.
Server Logs
Our hosting infrastructure may keep standard server logs for security, fraud prevention, troubleshooting and operational purposes. These logs may contain IP addresses, request paths, timestamps, browser identifiers and response information.
Data Retention
We retain technical information only for as long as reasonably necessary for security, diagnostics, legal compliance and normal operation of the website.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect the website and the information processed through it. However, no internet service can guarantee absolute security.
Your Choices
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding access, correction, deletion, restriction or objection to certain processing of personal data.
You may also manage cookie and consent preferences through any consent controls made available on the website.
Children's Privacy
