Privacy Policy

Overview

macaddress.net is committed to protecting your privacy. This tool is designed with a privacy-first architecture — all MAC address lookups are performed entirely within your web browser. No lookup data is ever transmitted to our servers or any third party.

Information We Do NOT Collect

• MAC addresses you search: All lookups happen client-side in your browser using a locally cached database. We have no ability to see, log, or store any MAC addresses you enter.
• Personal information: We do not require registration, accounts, or any personal details to use this tool.
• Search history: Your lookup history exists only in your browser and is not transmitted anywhere.

Information That May Be Collected

Hosting Provider (Cloudflare)

This site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare may collect standard web server logs including your IP address, browser user agent, and pages visited. This data is subject to Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.

Google AdSense (Advertising)

This site may display advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other websites. Specifically:

• Google uses cookies (such as the DART cookie) to serve ads based on your browsing history
• You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings
• You may opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info

For more information, see How Google Uses Information from Sites That Use Its Services.

Google Analytics (Future)

We may implement Google Analytics in the future to understand aggregate site traffic (page views, visitor counts, geographic regions). If implemented, Google Analytics will use cookies to collect anonymized usage data. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Cookies

macaddress.net itself uses only one cookie/local storage item:

• Theme preference (localStorage): Stores your selected color theme (green, amber, or blue). This is stored locally in your browser and never transmitted.

Third-party services (Google AdSense, Cloudflare) may set their own cookies as described above.

Data Security

This site is served over HTTPS. Because MAC address lookups happen entirely in your browser, there is no server-side data to secure — your search data never leaves your device.

Children's Privacy

This site is a general-purpose networking tool and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
