Privacy Policy
LAST UPDATED NOVEMBER 10, 2026
CheckInternetAvailability.com helps you find the internet providers that serve your address. This page explains what information we collect when you use the site, what we do with it, and the choices you have. The short version: we use your address only to look up providers, we don't sell your personal information, and you can ask us to delete what we hold.
Address searches
When you search an address or ZIP code, we send it to a public lookup service to find its location: street addresses go to the U.S. Census Bureau's geocoder, and ZIP codes go to Zippopotam.us. We use the result to show the providers with coverage there. We don't save the addresses you search. We also remove the address from page addresses before they reach our analytics tools.
Inquiries about a provider
If you use the form on a provider page to ask about service, we collect your email address, your optional message, and the provider you asked about. We store this and use it to:
- send you a confirmation and follow up about your request;
- let our team review it; and
- if that provider has a verified partner account with us, forward your inquiry to them so they can contact you.
We don't share your inquiry with any other provider, and we don't sell it.
Internet provider (partner) accounts
Providers who create a partner account give us a company name, a work email, and a password. We store the password only in scrambled (hashed) form. To keep you signed in we set a secure session cookie. We also store what partners submit, such as plans, service-area maps, and listing claims, and we may check a partner's public website for our verification badge. We email partners about their account, including verification, password resets, and new inquiries.
Analytics and cookies
We use these tools to understand how the site is used and to keep it fast:
- Google Analytics records pages visited and actions such as running a search or sending an inquiry. It uses cookies. We remove addresses, emails, and other personal details from the data we send it. You can opt out with Google's browser add-on.
- Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights measure visits and page speed in aggregate.
The only cookies we set ourselves are the session cookie for signed-in partners. Signed-in partner pages are not sent to Google Analytics.
Services that process data for us
- Vercel hosts the site. Like any web host, its servers receive standard request data such as your IP address.
- Resend sends our emails.
- Google provides analytics and serves the provider logos shown on the site (your browser loads them from Google).
- U.S. Census Bureau and Zippopotam.us look up the locations of searched addresses and ZIP codes.
Provider websites we link to have their own privacy policies. When you click through to a provider, their policy applies on their site.
How long we keep information
We keep inquiries and partner account information for as long as we need them to handle your request or run your account, and we delete them when you ask us to, unless we're required to keep something by law.
Your choices
You can ask us what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, by emailing privacy@checkinternetavailability.com. Partners can also update their details in the partner portal. We don't sell personal information or share it for cross-site advertising.
Children
This site is meant for adults choosing home internet service. We don't knowingly collect information from children under 13.
Changes to this policy
If we change how we handle information, we'll update this page and the date at the top.
