You also have the source IP address, which you can map not only to countries, but to relatively small regions and sometimes to individual companies. If this service was meant to be "datensparsam", it would provide an updated table or dataset, and not require a single request for every small bit of information.

Oh come on, how is that sensitive. Use a proxy if you're really worried about this.

  Not really worried, more curious how the collected datasets will be analyzed.

    Nothing, honestly. That data on its own has no value to me.

      Then you should say so on the page or in a separate privacy statement. Transparency about such details is very important in this space.

        I'll add it, thanks. This was just a weekend project.

        You may also want to drop fields that you don't actually use in the lookup.
