Data Sources and Accuracy

Our geolocation data is powered by the MaxMind GeoLite2 database, one of the most widely used and respected IP geolocation data sources in the industry. Used by thousands of companies worldwide, GeoLite2 provides reliable location data that we update regularly to maintain accuracy.

IP geolocation accuracy varies by level of detail:

  • Country-level - 99%+ accuracy for most regions
  • Region/State-level - 80-90% accuracy
  • City-level - 50-80% accuracy, depending on the region and ISP

The location shown represents the registered location of the IP address, which may differ from the physical location of the user. Mobile users, VPN users, and corporate networks may show different locations.

Privacy and Trust

We respect your privacy and are transparent about how our service works:

  • We do not log or store individual IP lookup queries
  • We do not create user profiles or require account registration
  • We do not sell personal data to third parties
  • We use Google Analytics for aggregated site usage data only
