Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-04-27.
This explains what myipcat.com collects when you visit, and what we and our advertising partners do with it.
What we collect ourselves
Almost nothing. The tools on this site run entirely in your browser using JavaScript — anything you type into a calculator stays in your browser and isn't sent to our servers.
The one exception is the IP-lookup feature: to show your IP, your browser fetches it from Cloudflare's free trace service (1.1.1.1/cdn-cgi/trace). That request goes from your browser directly to Cloudflare and includes your IP by definition. We don't store or log it.
Our hosting provider (Cloudflare) keeps standard server logs containing IP, page, user-agent, and timestamp. These are used for security and abuse prevention.
Cookies and Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense for ads. Google and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to:
- Serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other sites.
- Measure ad performance and detect fraud.
- Personalize ads based on inferred interests.
You can opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings, aboutads.info, or networkadvertising.org.
For visitors in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, Google's consent management tool requests your consent for personalized advertising in line with the GDPR.
Children's privacy
This site isn't directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children.
California, Virginia, and other state rights
If you're a California resident, the CCPA/CPRA grants you the right to know what personal information is collected, request deletion, and opt out of "sale" or "sharing." We don't sell personal info traditionally, but cross-site advertising cookies may qualify as "sharing" under California law. Opt out via the links above. Similar rights apply under Virginia (VCDPA), Colorado (CPA), and other state laws.
Your choices
- Disable cookies. Tools still work; ads will be non-personalized.
- Use an ad blocker. We won't stop you. We'll be a little sad.
- Opt out of personalized ads via the links above.
Changes
If this policy changes substantively, we'll update the date at the top and highlight the change for at least 30 days.
