Privacy Policy
At does.network, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency in how we handle data. This Privacy Policy explains what information we display, how we retrieve it, and your rights regarding that information. We do not collect, store, or share any personal data, and all information presented to you is retrieved in real-time. By using does.network, you acknowledge and agree to the practices outlined in this policy.
This policy has been designed to comply with relevant data protection regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)/California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) in the United States. We also respect global privacy laws applicable in other regions, as outlined below.
Legal Basis for Processing Data
Under GDPR, we process network-related data based on legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f)) as it is necessary to provide the requested service. By using this website, you consent to the retrieval of your network details for display purposes.
Information We Display
We show real-time network details, including your IP address (IPv4/IPv6), active IP version, estimated location (network-based), ISP, browser, and operating system. This information is only displayed to you and is not stored or shared.
How We Get This Information
We use public APIs, such as ipify and ipapi.co, to fetch IP, location and ISP details. These third-party services may log requests temporarily but do not track users. You can review their privacy policies at:
Usage Counter Data & Minimal Logging
In order to better understand usage trends and improve the service, does.network employs a minimal logging mechanism. This logging feature records only two pieces of information:
- UTC Timestamp: The date and time (in UTC) when the service was accessed, recorded in a human‐readable format (e.g. 2025-02-07 19:32:49).
- Approximate Location: A rough estimation of your location (city, region, and country) based on your IP address, obtained via a public IP lookup service. For example, the location might be reported as "Fazakerley, England, United Kingdom".
Please note that:
- IP Address Not Stored: Your full IP address is used solely to perform the lookup and is not logged or stored by does.network.
- Data Minimization: Only the UTC timestamp and an approximate location are stored, ensuring that no personally identifiable information is retained. This approach reflects our commitment to data minimization.
- Legal Basis: This logging is carried out under the legitimate interest of monitoring and improving the performance of our service. No personal data is stored or processed beyond the abovementioned.
We do not use this logged data to track individual users or build personal profiles, and it is automatically purged if older than 7 days. For any questions about our data handling practices, please refer to our full Data Protection and Privacy guidelines or contact us.
