Terms of Service
Last updated: 30 September 2026
1. Acceptance
By using howtofindtheip.com ("the Site") you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
2. The service
The Site provides free tools that display your public IP address and related information (location, ISP, connectivity, blacklist status, proxy status and reverse DNS), along with educational guides. All lookups are performed client-side by your browser via independent third-party APIs.
3. No warranty
The Site and all results are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied. IP geolocation and reputation data are inherently approximate and may be inaccurate, incomplete or outdated. Do not rely on results from this Site for legal, security-critical or safety-critical purposes.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the Site in any way that violates applicable law;
- attempt to disrupt, overload or interfere with the Site or its third-party providers;
- use automated tools to hammer the lookup APIs (they are subject to fair-use limits);
- use results obtained here to harass, stalk or defraud others.
5. Third-party services
The Site relies on third-party APIs (geolocation, proxy detection, DNS and mapping services) and CDNs. We are not responsible for their availability, accuracy or practices; their own terms and privacy policies apply to their services.
6. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the operators of the Site shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from your use of — or inability to use — the Site or its results.
7. Changes
We may update these terms from time to time. Changes take effect when posted on this page with an updated date above.
