What this service does

IP is a public IP information tool that shows your public IPv4 address, reverse DNS (PTR) record, ASN, ISP, geolocation, proxy/VPN detection, and the HTTP request headers your browser is sending.

IP is a personal project developed in free time by SS Data AS. SS Data AS is not currently an operational company. The service is provided as-is with no uptime guarantees.

Data we store

Account data

IP uses the shared SS Data authentication system. When you sign in, your email address is used to identify your account. We do not store passwords — authentication is handled by the SS Data auth service.

Usage data

We store a running count of your IP lookups — a weekly counter (for rate limiting) and a total lifetime counter. No lookup results are persisted: we record that a lookup happened, not what IP address or headers were returned.

What we do NOT collect

  • We do not store your IP address between sessions
  • We do not store the request headers captured during a lookup
  • We do not use analytics, tracking pixels, or third-party scripts
  • We do not store browser fingerprints
  • We do not serve advertisements
  • We do not sell or share your data with anyone

Third-party services

IP geolocation, ASN, ISP, and proxy data is retrieved server-side from ip-api.com. Your IP address is sent to ip-api.com as part of the lookup. Their privacy policy applies to that data. No other third-party services are used.

Reverse DNS lookups (PTR records) are performed via your server's DNS resolver — no third-party DNS service is involved beyond standard DNS infrastructure.

Cookies & sessions

We use a single session cookie named ssdata_session to keep you signed in across SS Data services. This cookie contains a random session token — no personal data is embedded in it. It expires after 8 hours of inactivity.

No third-party cookies are set. No advertising cookies are used.

Data retention & deletion

Your lookup counters are stored for as long as your account exists. Weekly counters reset automatically every Monday. If you want your account and all associated data permanently deleted, contact us and we will remove everything within a reasonable timeframe.

Security

  • All traffic is encrypted in transit via HTTPS (TLS 1.2+)
  • Session tokens are cryptographically random and stored in memory only
  • The database is stored on a private server not accessible from the public internet
  • IP lookups are performed server-side — your IP is never sent to a third-party by your browser

Terms of use

Acceptable use

You may use IP for personal diagnostic, privacy verification, and network troubleshooting purposes. You may not attempt to circumvent the rate limiting, access other users' accounts, or use the service for any unlawful purpose.

No warranty

The service is provided "as is" without any warranty of accuracy, availability, or fitness for a particular purpose. Geolocation data is approximate — do not rely on it for critical decisions.

Limitation of liability

SS Data AS shall not be liable for any loss resulting from inaccurate IP data, data loss, or other service interruptions.

Changes to these terms

We may update this document from time to time. Continued use of the service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

Contact

This service is operated by SS Data AS (a personal project, not currently an operational company). For data deletion requests or questions about privacy, reach out via ssdata.no.
