Abuse IP database is a community-driven project. We make it easy for anyone to report network abuse. Your reports help keep the internet a safer place, and improve our service for everyone.

Registering for a free account gives you full access to our abuse lookup and reporting APIs. You can also use our blacklist to block bad actors. If you require higher API limits or need more control over the data, we have several paid plans to suit your needs.

Using the Abuse IP Database to Protect Against Malicious Traffic

Our mission is to reduce hacking, scamming, and other abusive behavior online. We do this by collecting and processing personal information associated with IP addresses. This data is not connected to any other PII and is known as “Reported Data.” Our lawful ground for using Reported Data is that it is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest to reduce abusive behavior online.

DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND ABUSEIPDB WILL BE RESOLVED IN INDIVIDUAL BINDING ARBITRATION, NOT THROUGH A CLASS ACTION. IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION OR COMPLAINT ABOUT THE SITE, YOU MUST CONTACT US WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DATE THAT THE CLAIM ARISES.

We respect your right to privacy. You can find more details about how we collect and use your personal information here. You can also request to change your personal information or delete it from our records at any time. We will need some verification of your identity before changing or deleting your personal information. This may include requesting a copy of a government-issued photo ID or a utility bill showing your address. You can also designate an agent to act on your behalf, provided they have proof of your identity and are authorized to do so.
