Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information MAC Address Finder handles when you use the site, why it is used, and the choices you have.
Last Updated:Overview
MAC Address Finder provides a free online MAC address look up tool at macaddressfinder.com. We aim to collect only the information needed to run the site and answer your questions. By using the site you agree to the practices described here.
Information We Handle
Depending on how you use the site, the following information may be handled:
- MAC addresses you submit. The address you enter is sent to a lookup service so that vendor information can be returned.
- Contact form details. If you write to us, we receive your name, email address, and the message you choose to send.
- Technical data. Like most websites, our servers and hosting providers may record your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, and request times.
- Cookies and similar technologies. The site may use cookies needed for it to work and, where enabled, for measuring traffic.
How We Use Information
We use the information above for specific purposes:
- To perform the MAC address lookup you request and display the result.
- To respond to messages, support requests, and feedback.
- To maintain, secure, and improve the site and its performance.
- To detect abuse, spam, and attempts to misuse the service.
- To meet legal obligations when they apply.
Third-Party Lookup Services
Vendor information comes from an external lookup service connected to the site. When you submit a MAC address, that address is transmitted to the service so it can return registry data. The provider may have its own policies and logging practices, so we encourage you to review them. We do not control how third-party services handle requests.
Sharing Of Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information only in these situations:
- With service providers that host the site, deliver email, or help us operate the service.
- With the external lookup service, limited to the MAC address you submit.
- When required by law, legal process, or to protect the rights and safety of users and the site.
Data Retention
We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy. Contact messages are kept while we handle your request and for a reasonable period afterward. Server logs are kept according to our hosting provider settings and then removed or anonymized.
Cookies
Cookies are small files stored in your browser. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how parts of the site work.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights over your personal information. You can ask us to:
- Tell you what personal information we hold about you.
- Correct information that is inaccurate.
- Delete personal information we no longer need.
- Stop using your information for a particular purpose where the law allows.
To make a request, email us at the address below. We may need to confirm your identity before acting on it.
Children
The site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us and we will remove it.
Changes To This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of the page shows when it was last changed. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
