Using IPinfo Data in Your Project?
Please Add Attribution
Attribution is required when using IPinfo Lite, our free tier, and may also apply to other services depending on your license. Adding attribution is simple, usually just a small credit in your app or site footer. It helps keep IPinfo Lite free and promotes trusted data sources.
Attribution Guidelines
If your use of IPinfo data includes an attribution requirement — whether as part of our IPinfo Lite free offering (licensed under Creative Commons) or a specific Enterprise agreement — this page outlines how to credit us properly.
Providing attribution helps us support the broader developer community, maintain transparency around data usage, and celebrate the amazing projects built with IPinfo data.
How to Attribute IPinfo Data
In most cases, attribution can be included with a simple line like this:
Where appropriate, this should be added:
- In your app's footer or credits section
- On documentation or public-facing datasets
- In academic papers, blog posts, or GitHub README files
If you're not sure whether attribution is required for your usage, feel free to contact us or check your service agreement.
