Evidence
-
FloppyData's Terms of Service (effective 2 Oct 2026) named FLOPPYDATA – FZCO, Dubai Silicon Oasis, UAE, as operator and said Scalehat LLC (Venice, Florida) and Primevo s. r. o. (Slovakia, ID 57473234) may also handle contracting or billing.
“Welcome to Floppydata.com, a service operated by FLOPPYDATA – FZCO, Building A1, Dubai Digital Park, Dubai Silicon Oasis, Dubai, UAE”
-
FloppyData's Privacy Policy (last updated 2 Oct 2026) listed FLOPPYDATA – FZCO, Scalehat LLC and Primevo s. r. o. as 'group entities' that share personal data and may act as joint controllers, and named no parent company.
“FLOPPYDATA – FZCO, Scalehat LLC and Primevo s. r. o. share personal data with each other as needed to operate, bill, and support the Service.”
-
Slovakia's commercial register listed Primevo s. r. o. (ID 57473234) as registered on 20 Feb 2026, with its seat in Bratislava since 3 Jun 2026 (FloppyData's terms still gave Banská Bystrica), one individual as sole owner and director, and general business objects.
“Gorkého 3 Bratislava - mestská časť Staré Mesto 811 01”
-
FloppyData's About page called its proxies 'ethically sourced', but neither it nor the terms, privacy policy or residential proxy page we read said how residential IPs are obtained: no consent flow, SDK, app or supply partner was named.
“Floppydata offers 3 types of ethically sourced proxies:”
-
GoDaddy's RDAP record for g-w.info, the domain of the proxy host geo.g-w.info shown on FloppyData's homepage, showed it registered on 21 Jan 2019 with the registrant hidden behind the privacy service Domains By Proxy.
“Domains By Proxy, LLC”
-
IPinfo's residential proxy data page used Floppydata as the provider name in a sample record (last seen 16 Oct 2026), showing that IPinfo attributes residential exit IPs to FloppyData, without saying how FloppyData sources them.
