Understanding IP Location Databases and Refund Policies

IP location data can vary significantly across different websites because there is no single unified database that all services rely on. Each platform may use its own database or multiple sources to determine IP locations, leading to inconsistencies and unreliable results.

Our Integrated Database: MaxMind
At Proxy-Cheap.com, we use MaxMind as our primary integrated database for determining IP locations. MaxMind is a widely recognized and reliable source, and we base all our location-related policies on its data. While third-party websites may display different location information, these discrepancies are beyond our control.

Third-Party Websites and Responsibility
It’s important to note that we cannot influence or modify data displayed on any third-party database or website. If you notice incorrect IP location details on a third-party platform, we recommend contacting the administrator of that platform to request a manual update of their database.

Proxies displayed on third-party websites as being from a country other than the one assigned in our system are not eligible for refunds. This is because such discrepancies stem from variations in the third-party databases and are outside our responsibility.

Refund Policy for Location Accuracy
Refunds are only available if there is a proven mismatch in the location accuracy based on MaxMind, our integrated database. Data discrepancies on third-party platforms do not qualify for refunds as they fall outside the scope of our services.

We encourage users to rely solely on MaxMind for IP location verification to avoid confusion and ensure consistency. By aligning with our integrated database, we can provide the most reliable and accurate service.
