Irish Proxy|EU GDPR Compliance Access IPs

What exactly is the purpose of an Irish proxy IP?

Recently, some cross-border e-commerce friends asked me why I have to use Ireland's proxy IP. frankly speaking, this thing is like opening a physical store to choose the location - you want to do business in the European Union, the server is not placed in the local, the data run slow not to mention, but also may be stepped on the red line of the GDPR. Last year, there is a clothing independent station buddies, because of the use of U.S. IP to deal with European user data, directly penalized three months of water.

at this momentStatic Residential AgentsThat's where it comes in handy. As if you rented an office in Dublin with a fixed number, both to ensure access speed, but also to let the EU regulators to see your "physical presence". Especially like ipipgo such as specializing in the EU nodes of the service provider, their Irish IP pool are real local operators resources, unlike some of the wild road service providers to take the IP room to fool people.

GDPR compliance is not a metaphysics

We have seen too many cases of people treating GDPR as a mere decoration, and as a result, they have fallen into trouble. Last year, a customer doing online education used a Hong Kong server to connect to German users, and as a result, the path of user data return was not transparent, and it was recognized as "data cross-border transmission non-compliance". Later, it switched to ipipgo's Irish agent, which directly completed data processing in the local area, equivalent to building a "data safe" in the European Union.

Three must-check compliance points:
1. Legal system of the place of IP affiliation (Ireland is a dual member of the EU + Common Market)
2. Data transmission encryption method (at least from AES-256)
3. Availability of proof of compliance from the service provider (ipipgo has an existing ISO27001 certification)

Teach you how to pick the right agent

Select proxy IP not just look at the price, we must look at the "freshness" like picking seafood. Last week to help a friend to do financial technology test, the market said Ireland's proxy, the actual can pass the GDPR test less than 30%. Here to teach you a local method: openipipgo official websiteof the test channel to compare whether the IP attribution and the actual server room location are the same.

Hands-on guide to avoiding the pit

I've seen the most outrageous cases where someone bought an agent and couldn't use it, and directly sunlighted the API key on the GitHub public repository. Here are a few common mistakes that newbies make:

① Use dynamic IP as staticSome service providers have IP survival cycles of just 2 hours, which is not suitable for business scenarios that require a fixed identity. ipipgo's exclusive IP pool is guaranteed to remain unchanged for at least 30 days, which is especially suitable for advertising accounts that require a stable login environment.

② Ignore protocol matchingThe payment interface must be docked with socks5, ordinary web browsing with http will be. Last week there is a do independent station sister, with the wrong protocol leads to payment gateway frequently dropped, and then changed to ipipgo intelligent protocol switching function to solve.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will I be speed limited with an Irish IP?
A: It depends on the routing optimization of the service provider. Like ipipgo goes through the TeliaSonera backbone, and the measured download speed can reach 85Mbps, which is faster than some local broadband.

Q: Do I need specialized skills to configure it?
A: Now the good service providers have ready-made toolkit. ipipgo provides one-click installation of the client, even our company's front desk girl can be done in 3 minutes.

Q: What should I do if my IP is blocked?
A: That's why it's important to choose a service provider with a large IP pool. ipipgo's Irish nodes have a reserve of 5000+ IPs, and with their intelligent rotation system, there is basically no chance of the whole disk being blocked.

Tell the truth.

The water in this business is quite deep, and some service providers will package data center IPs as residential IPs for sale. Last month, a customer bought a cheap one from another company, but the result was that all the AS numbers were Amazon clouds, which could not pass the compliance review. We suggest that before placing an order, you should use ipipgo's free testing tool to verify your identity, so that you don't regret stepping into the pit.

In the end, choosing a proxy IP is similar to finding a date - the right one is more important than the good-looking one. Especially when it comes to GDPR, a major event that can easily result in a fine of 4% in annual revenue, you still have to look for ipipgo, which has a formal qualification of the old brand. Their technical customer service is quite reliable, the last time I raised a work order at two o'clock in the morning, ten minutes to solve the problem of IP drift.
