Overview
IP Jokes is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that data. The short version: we collect as little as possible and never sell your information.
IP Address Detection
When you visit our homepage, we detect your public IP address server-side using Cloudflare's infrastructure. This data is:
- Displayed to you in your browser so you can see your own IP address
- Not stored in any database or log file
- Not shared with any third party
- Not used for tracking or profiling
The IP detection happens in real time and is discarded as soon as the response is sent to your browser.
Cookies & Local Storage
We do not use cookies. The only data stored on your device is your theme preference (light or dark mode), saved via localStorage. This is a browser-side technology that never sends data to our servers.
Analytics
We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate traffic patterns (e.g., total page views, popular pages). If we use analytics, we choose providers that:
- Do not use cookies
- Do not collect personal data
- Do not track users across sites
- Comply with GDPR without requiring a consent banner
Third-Party Links
Our site contains affiliate links to VPN providers. When you click these links and leave our site, the third-party provider's privacy policy applies. We encourage you to review their policies before signing up.
We also fetch jokes from icanhazdadjoke.com. This request is made from your browser and does not include any personal information beyond what a standard HTTP request contains (your IP address and browser info).
Data We Do Not Collect
To be explicit, we do not collect:
- Names, email addresses, or account information (we have no accounts)
- Browsing history or search queries
- Device fingerprints
- Location data beyond what we show you on the homepage
- Any data for advertising or retargeting purposes
Children's Privacy
Our site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children.
Changes to This Policy
If we make material changes to this privacy policy, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
