Privacy Policy

ProxyOrb ("we", "us", or "our") operates the website proxyorb.com and provides a free web proxy service (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, protect, and handle information when you use our Service.

ProxyOrb acts solely as a technical intermediary — a relay between your browser and the websites you visit. We do not control, monitor, or take responsibility for the content of third-party websites accessed through our Service.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide

We operate on a minimal-information basis. We do not require registration or personal information to use the Service. However, we may collect:

Email address and message content if you contact our support team
Feedback you voluntarily submit about the Service

Information Collected Automatically

When you use the Service, our systems may automatically collect:

Browser type and operating system (for compatibility optimization)
Temporary IP addresses during sessions (see No-Logs Policy below)
Basic aggregated usage statistics for performance monitoring
Error logs related to Service operations

We use only essential cookies required for the Service to function:

Session management during proxy usage
Security and abuse prevention measures
Service operation and stability

We do not use cookies for advertising tracking or behavioral profiling. Third-party services we use (such as analytics) may set their own cookies; consult their respective privacy policies for details.

How We Use Information

We use collected information strictly to operate and improve the Service:

Service operation, maintenance, and reliability
Security monitoring and abuse prevention
Performance monitoring and infrastructure optimization
Technical support for user-reported issues
Legal compliance where required by applicable law
Service improvements and bug fixes

We do not use your information for advertising, sell it to third parties, or share it with data brokers.

No-Logs Policy

ProxyOrb maintains a strict no-logs policy for browsing activity:

No browsing history: We do not store which websites you visit through the proxy
No URL logging: The specific pages and content you access are not recorded
No user activity tracking: We do not monitor or profile your browsing behavior
No traffic content monitoring: We do not inspect the content of proxied requests
No data sharing: We do not share browsing activity data with advertisers or third parties

For abuse prevention and law enforcement cooperation purposes, minimal access logs (IP addresses) are retained for a maximum of 60 days from the date of access, after which they are automatically deleted. These logs contain no browsing history.

Data Storage and Security

Security Measures

We implement security measures appropriate for a proxy service:

HTTPS encryption for all traffic between users and ProxyOrb servers
Regular security reviews of our infrastructure
Access controls limiting who can view system logs
DDoS protection across our network

Data Retention

Minimal access logs: automatically deleted after 60 days
Support communications: retained for up to 30 days after resolution
No permanent storage of browsing history or proxied content
Session data is discarded upon session completion

Third-Party Services

When you use ProxyOrb to access third-party websites:

The privacy policies of those third-party websites apply to content you access through them
ProxyOrb acts as a data transmitter only — we do not process or retain the content of third-party pages
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of websites you visit through the proxy

We may use third-party services for analytics and infrastructure (such as CDN providers). These services have their own privacy policies and may collect aggregated, anonymized data about Service usage.

Advertising Partners

ProxyOrb may display advertisements on its pages. Third-party ad networks may use cookies or web beacons in connection with ads displayed on our site. These technologies are governed by the ad network's own privacy policy. ProxyOrb does not control cookies set by third-party advertising partners.

You can opt out of interest-based advertising through your browser's cookie settings or through opt-out mechanisms provided by advertising industry organizations.
