Privacy Policy
The short version
We don't log your IP lookups. We don't set tracking cookies. We don't sell your data. We don't run third-party analytics on this site. The only data you see on this site is your own.
What data is collected
When you open any tool on SiteTrace, your browser makes a request to a public IP-geo or DNS-over-HTTPS service. Those services have their own privacy policies. SiteTrace does not sit between you and them, does not log those requests, and does not store the responses. Cloudflare (our host) keeps standard HTTP request logs for security and abuse prevention, governed by the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
Cookies and storage
SiteTrace does not use cookies. It does not use localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB, or any other persistent storage. The language preference is held in memory only and resets when you close the tab.
Third-party services
To answer your queries, your browser talks to: ipwho.is, ip-api.com, Google DNS-over-HTTPS, and Cloudflare DNS-over-HTTPS. They see your IP, but SiteTrace does not. Each has its own privacy policy.

Frequently asked questions
Does SiteTrace use cookies?
No. SiteTrace sets no cookies, no localStorage, and no tracking pixels. The only client-side storage used is sessionStorage, which holds your manual language choice for the duration of a tab and is cleared when you close it. It is never sent to any server.
Do you log my IP address?
SiteTrace does not. There is no server-side component in your lookups — your browser talks directly to public IP-geo and DNS-over-HTTPS services. Cloudflare (the host) keeps standard request logs for security and abuse prevention, governed by the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
Do you share my data with third parties?
No. The third parties that do see your IP (ipwho.is, ip-api.com, Google DoH, Cloudflare DoH, and the statuspage.io endpoints we poll) have their own privacy policies, but SiteTrace does not forward, aggregate, or sell any of your data.
