Privacy
iptje.nl shows your IP address to you and does nothing else with it. This is exactly what happens.
Your IP address
Every website sees the IP address of its visitors. We send it back to your screen, together with the provider and an estimated location. That information comes from a database on our own server. Your address is not sent to anyone else for this and is not stored by the site.
Lookups and DNS
When you look up an IP address, the answer comes from the same database. For a domain, our server requests the DNS records from the DNS, just as your browser does for every site you visit. What you look up is not kept.
Subnet calculator
The subnet calculator runs entirely in your browser. What you enter there does not leave your device.
No third-party services
The site loads nothing from other parties: no trackers, no ads, no analytics service, no outside fonts or scripts and no cookies. The only exception is a link you click yourself, such as the OpenStreetMap map.
Overview
| What | Why | Who receives it | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your IP address and your browser's headers | To show them to you: that is what the site is for (legitimate interest, art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) | No one | We store nothing |
| The IP address or domain you look up | To give the answer. We ask the DNS about domains, as every browser does | No one; the domain's DNS servers see a question from our server, not from you | We store nothing |
| Counters against abuse, with an irreversible code derived from your IP address | To prevent someone from overloading the site or using it as a scanner (legitimate interest, art. 6(1)(f)) | No one | Per 10 minutes and per day; removed after that |
| Server logs: IP address, time, requested page | Security and fixing outages (legitimate interest, art. 6(1)(f)) | Our hosting company Vservs (the Netherlands) | At most 30 days |
| Appearance and language | To remember your choice | Stays on your device | Until you clear them |
Source of the IP data
Provider and location come from the free databases of DB-IP (CC BY 4.0 licence). We fetch a new version every month. The location is an estimate, not a street address.
Your rights
You may view your data and have it corrected or deleted, have the processing restricted and object, as far as the law allows. Email us; we respond within a month. If you disagree with us, you can file a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority.
