How it works:

  1. Your IP address is captured when the page loads
  2. The IP address is matched against the MaxMind database (occurs on our server, not at MaxMind)
  3. Your approximate location is determined (country, region, city)
  4. This information is used to display location-specific social proof messages
  5. Your IP address is shortened to the last 2 octets after 7 days (e.g., 192.168.XXX.XXX)

MaxMind Inc.
