Rate Limiting

To ensure fair access for all users, we may implement rate limiting on our tools and API endpoints. Excessive automated requests may result in temporary or permanent blocking of your IP address.

Accuracy Disclaimer

IP geolocation data is approximate and should not be relied upon for precise location determination. Our geolocation data is sourced from MaxMind's GeoLite2 database, which is generally accurate at the country and region level but may be less accurate at the city level. Results from our network diagnostic tools (ping, traceroute, DNS, WHOIS) reflect real-time network conditions and may vary.

Our VPN reviews and comparisons are based on our testing and research. We may earn affiliate commissions from VPN providers when you sign up through links on our site. This does not affect our rankings or reviews, which are based on objective criteria including speed, security, privacy, and value.

Intellectual Property

All content, design, and code on WheresThatIP.com is owned by us or our licensors. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without permission. Our geolocation data is provided under the MaxMind GeoLite2 license.

Limitation of Liability

WheresThatIP.com is provided without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for any damages arising from your use of our services, including but not limited to inaccurate geolocation data, tool downtime, or decisions made based on information from our site.
