Overview & Core Privacy Principles
Welcome to ProxyPact ("ProxyPact", "we", "us", or "our"). We provide automated public proxy scraping, normalization, live latency verification engines, and premium proxy infrastructure solutions.
We adhere to a fundamental tenet: you should not need to trade privacy to explore the open web. ProxyPact is engineered to minimize data gathering, maintain zero activity logbooks for free services, and operate strictly under transparent data governance.
Data We Collect
Depending on how you interact with our platform, we collect minimal operational information:
Public Web Visitors
Standard server edge logs (ephemeral IP address, browser user-agent, request timestamp) solely for rate limiting, DDoS mitigation, and firewall telemetry. Logs rotate and purge automatically within 24 hours.
Contact & Beta Inquiries
If you email us at beta@proxypact.com, support@proxypact.com, or contact@proxypact.com, we retain your email address and communication thread strictly to address your request.
Online Proxy Checker & REST API Privacy
When using our Free Online Proxy Checker (/checker) or submitting queries to /api:
- Ephemeral In-Memory Checks: Proxies submitted to our backend verification worker are processed in volatile server memory. We do not store, persist, or build public databases from custom proxies you submit in the checker.
- Authentication Masking: If you test proxies with credentials (e.g.
user:pass@host:port), the credentials are used solely to establish the temporary test handshake and are never written to disk or audit logs. - No Destination Snooping: Verification pings connect solely to our verification test target endpoints (e.g. IP echo mirrors) to measure latency, handshake status, and geolocation.
Public Proxy Aggregation
The free proxy addresses displayed on our index page and public API endpoints are gathered from publicly accessible sources across the global internet. We do not operate or control the physical hardware hosting these third-party public nodes. Users should never transmit unencrypted sensitive credentials (passwords, payment cards) over open public HTTP proxies.
Security Infrastructure
We employ modern enterprise safeguards including TLS 1.3 encryption across all inbound and outbound endpoints, strict memory isolation for checker workers, continuous automated vulnerability scanning, and robust edge DDoS shields.
Third-Party Disclosures
We do not sell, rent, monetize, or trade your personal information or checker query streams to data brokers or advertising networks. We may only disclose minimal information if legally compelled pursuant to a binding court order from a recognized judicial authority.
Your Rights (GDPR / CCPA / Global)
Depending on your jurisdiction, you possess specific rights regarding your data, including the right to request confirmation of data processing, request permanent deletion of communications, or lodge inquiries regarding our infrastructure policies.
