IP Privacy Detection Database

Privacy Detection or Anonymous IP database provides data on IP addresses that are associated with VPN, Tor, proxies, relays, and hosting services.

Tor detection includes all Tor relay types: Exit nodes, Entry (Guard) nodes, Middle relays, and Bridges. A single relay can hold multiple Tor roles at the same time. The tor field is a collapsed boolean: true means one or more Tor roles are detected, while role-specific flags are not currently exposed.

Database Schema

The Privacy Detection database contains the following fields:

Field NameExampleData TypeDescrption
network146.70.174.112/31TEXTCIDR or single IP address of the IP address block
hostingtrueBOOLEANIndicates a hosting/cloud service/data center IP address
proxyfalseBOOLEANIndicates a open web proxy IP address
torfalseBOOLEANIndicates whether the IP address is associated with the Tor network (including Exit nodes, Entry (Guard) nodes, Middle relays, and Bridges). This is a collapsed boolean that is true when any Tor role is detected.
relayfalseBOOLEANIndicates location preserving anonymous relay service
vpntrueBOOLEANIndicates Virtual Private Network (VPN) service exit node IP address
