Privacy policy

LAST UPDATED 12 SEPTEMBER 2026

This site exists to tell people what the internet can see about them. A privacy policy full of hedging would undercut the point, so this one is written plainly and describes what actually happens in the code.

The short version. No accounts and no sign-up. Your test results are stored in your own browser and never sent to us. We keep no database of visitors. The one thing that does measure you is Google Analytics, which counts visits so we can see whether anyone is finding the site; it is described in full below rather than buried.

What stays on your device

The VPN checker stores your baseline measurement and your recent results in your browser's local storage. That data never leaves your computer or phone, and we cannot read it. Clearing your browser data, or using the tool's own "Clear history" and "Start over" buttons, removes it permanently.

What leaves your device, and why

Your IP address, to your browser only. To tell you which city and network operator a site would see, our host reads that information from the connection itself and returns it to you. No third-party lookup service is involved, and your address is not written to any log or database of our own.
Speed test traffic, to Cloudflare. Speed is measured using Cloudflare's open-source engine against their nearest server, because measuring a connection requires a server near you. Those requests necessarily reach Cloudflare and are subject to their privacy practices. We have configured the engine so your results are not submitted to Cloudflare's aggregated statistics.
Ordinary web requests to our host. The site is served by Cloudflare. Like any web host, their infrastructure processes the requests needed to deliver pages, which can include standard server-level records. We do not add our own logging on top of that, and we do not have a visitor database.

Leak tests run entirely in your browser

The WebRTC check, the IPv6 check, the timezone comparison and the fingerprint readings all execute locally in JavaScript. Their results are displayed to you and stored on your device. They are never transmitted to us.

Analytics

This site uses Google Analytics to count page views and understand roughly where visitors come from. That means Google receives a record of your visit, including your IP address, browser and the pages you opened, and it sets cookies in your browser to recognise return visits. Google's own privacy policy governs what they do with it.

We use it only to see whether anyone is finding the site. We do not build profiles of visitors, and analytics is never connected to anything you do inside the tools — your measurements never reach it, because they never leave your browser. If advertising is ever added to this site, this policy will be updated before it goes live.

If you would rather not be counted, any ad blocker or tracker blocker stops it, as does the "Do Not Track" or equivalent setting in most browsers. Nothing on this site stops working if you block it.

Cookies

The only cookies set here come from Google Analytics, as described above. We set none of our own. Your theme choice and your saved test results are kept in local storage, not cookies, and never leave your device. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which means your browser also requests those files from Google's servers.

Children

These tools are not directed at children and collect no personal information from anyone, including children.

Changes and questions

If this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it. Questions about privacy on this site can go to funnriot@gmail.com.
