Last updated: July 2026

What we collect

When you use ipneighbour.com, we process the following information:

• Your IP address: Detected automatically from your connection for the purpose of showing you your own IP details and for rate limiting.
• Lookup queries: The IP addresses and domains you look up are processed to return results. We may cache query results temporarily to improve performance.
• Standard web server logs: Including IP address, user agent, and request timestamps. These are retained for a limited period for operational and security purposes.

What we don't do

• We do not sell or share personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.
• We do not use tracking cookies or third-party analytics.
• We do not store lookup history server-side beyond temporary caching.
• We do not require registration or collect personal information beyond what is described above.

Third-party services

To provide lookup results, we query external public services including RDAP registries, Team Cymru, and RIPEstat. These services may log the queries we make on your behalf according to their own privacy policies.

Local storage

We use browser localStorage to store your theme preference and recent lookup history. This data never leaves your browser.

Caching

Query results are cached server-side with short to medium TTLs to improve response times and reduce load on upstream data sources. Cached data is automatically expired.

Geolocation disclaimer

Any geolocation data displayed is approximate and derived from third-party databases. It should not be used to identify individuals or determine precise physical locations.
