Frequently Asked Questions

Is IP geolocation always accurate?

It depends on the database. It's usually very accurate for the country, but city-level data can sometimes be a few miles off.

Can someone find my house with my IP?

Usually, no. An IP address only leads to your ISP's equipment or a general neighborhood area, not a specific residential address.
