Privacy policy

How PhoneCarrier.info collects, uses, and protects information. We aim for transparency, data minimization, and user control.

1) Information we collect

• Phone numbers you enter: used to perform the lookup; not stored as a permanent user profile.
• Usage analytics: Google Analytics cookies (device/browser metadata, pages, interaction events).
• Local lookup history: recent lookups may be stored in your browser local storage.

2) How we use information

• Return lookup results (carrier, country, region, type).
• Maintain and improve reliability and performance.
• Understand aggregated usage trends.

3) Data sources and accuracy

Results use open libphonenumber metadata (via Python phonenumbers). This is telecom numbering metadata, not personal identity data.

4) Third-party sharing

We do not sell personal information or share lookup input for marketing.

• Infrastructure required to complete requests may process data in transit.
• Google Analytics may process cookie-based analytics on our behalf.

5) Retention

• Lookup inputs are processed for immediate response, not long-term account records.
• Browser history stays on your device until you clear it.
• Analytics retention follows Google Analytics configuration.

6) Cookies

We use cookies for analytics. You can control cookies in your browser. Google settings: google.com/settings/ads.

7) Privacy rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights such as access, deletion, or objection. Requests are handled based on what data is actually held and retrievable.

8) Contact
