Privacy Policy

1. Overview

Tikip.us ("we", "us", or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our website and TikTok Region Finder tool at tikip.us. By using our Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

2. Information and Third-Party Services

Tikip does not retain lookup usernames submitted through the profile lookup. To return a result, the username is sent to the Omar-Thing API at omar-thing.site, which returns profile information it can retrieve from TikTok. If you submit the contact form, your name, email address, subject, and message are sent to Tikip through Resend, our email delivery provider, for delivery to contact.tikip@gmail.com. Cloudflare processes the form request, and Resend processes the email under their own privacy and retention practices. Do not include passwords or other sensitive information.

• Lookup requests: Tikip does not store lookup usernames or personal data submitted through the lookup. The username is sent to the Omar-Thing API at omar-thing.site to retrieve TikTok profile information. We have not verified its underlying access method or request-retention period. Review the provider’s current privacy terms before submitting a lookup.
• Public profile information: Results depend on information retrieved from TikTok through the Omar-Thing API and on the fields returned. Tikip cannot access hidden private content and does not claim to retrieve private account data.
• Personal data and contact messages: The lookup does not ask for passwords or private account content, and Tikip does not retain lookup usernames. When you submit the contact form, your name, email address, subject, and message are sent through Cloudflare and Resend to Tikip’s contact inbox. These providers may process technical or message data under their own policies.
• Cookies & Tracking: The site may use cookies or similar technologies, including those set by advertising partners. Check the active consent and provider configuration for current details.

3. How Information Is Used

4. Third-Party Services

• Contact email delivery: Cloudflare processes the form request, and Resend delivers submitted contact messages to Tikip. Their privacy and retention practices apply to their processing.

Those providers’ handling is governed by their own practices. No internet transmission or security measure can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
