The short version: DNS Leak Scan is a free test that compares the network of your DNS resolvers with the network of your IP address. It is not a full security audit of your VPN or your device.
Using the site
DNS Leak Scan is operated by DEV2REV. These terms apply when you use the site. If you do not agree, do not use it.
Results, not advice
A verdict is based on public network registry data, which can be out of date or incomplete. “Looks fine” means no resolver was found on an unexpected network during this test. It doesn't guarantee that your VPN never leaks, and “Possible leak” doesn't prove that it does.
Fair use of the test server
Use the test to check your own connection. Don't automate it at volume, query our DNS server for anything other than the test, or try to use it to reach other systems. The server limits requests and stops answering sources that send too many.
Warranty and liability
We provide the site and its results as available. To the extent permitted by law, we do not guarantee their accuracy, completeness, uninterrupted availability or fitness for a particular purpose. This does not affect any guarantees or consumer rights that the law does not allow us to exclude.
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of the site or its results. This exclusion does not apply to death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud, wilful misconduct, gross negligence or any other liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited. Nothing in these terms limits your mandatory consumer rights.
Ads and affiliate links
The site shows ads, and links to VPN services may be affiliate links. Those services' own terms apply when you use them. See the affiliate disclosure.
Changes and governing law
We may change the site or these terms. Updated terms will appear on this page with a revised date.
Revised terms take effect when published on this page with a revised date. They apply to use of the site from that date and do not change rights arising from earlier use. We do not send individual notices because there are no accounts. Any notice or consent required by law still applies.
These terms are governed by Portuguese law. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the mandatory protections of the law of the country where you live. You may bring proceedings in your local courts where applicable law allows.
