Cookie Policy
This page explains what cookies Check My IP uses, why, and how you can manage them.
A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by your browser. Check My IP uses a very small number of cookies, all of which are strictly necessary to make the site function the way you expect — none are used for advertising, analytics, or cross-site tracking.

Third-Party Cookies
Check My IP itself does not set any third-party advertising or analytics cookies. However, the site does make requests to third-party services (ip-api.com, ipify.org, and OpenStreetMap) in order to detect your IP address and display an approximate location map. These providers may set their own cookies as part of delivering their service; such cookies are governed by their own respective privacy and cookie policies, not by us.

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Most browsers let you view, delete, or block cookies from specific sites. Please note that if you block the necessary cookies described above, features like remembering your language and theme preference may stop working correctly.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use. Please check back periodically for the latest version.
