'''IP Address Privacy''' is a compliance feature of [[ConversionRuler]] which supports partial [[anonymization]] of visitor to your site to protect their privacy as well as to prevent '''personally-identifiable information''' from being associated with a specific user.

'''IP Address Privacy''' is configured on a per-site basis and changes how [[IP Address]]es are treated when tracked by ConversionRuler.

Most [[IP Address]]es are in the form of four '''octets''' or numbers between 0 and 255, for example:

127.0.0.1
10.10.4.2
172.31.29.120
192.168.53.243

A valid [[IP Address]] contains '''four''' and only '''four''' octets.

'''IP Address Privacy''' converts the final octet into the number 0 ('''zero''') for all traffic recorded for your site. So using the above [[IP Address]]es as an example, the values would be converted to:

127.0.0.0
10.10.4.0
172.31.29.0
192.168.53.0

Generally speaking, this changes the [[IP Address]] sufficiently so that it can not be used to identify an individual person.

== Effect on Geographic Information ==

In most cases, geographic information related to the anonymized [[IP Address]] will be affected, but generally speaking '''country''' and '''domain name''' information can be considered relatively reliable given the anonymized IP address.
