Terms of use

Last updated 14 November 2026

Free to use, no account, no warranty. Two paragraphs that matter and a few that keep the lawyers calm.

What this is

A free browser page that sends DNS queries to public resolvers and formats the answers. Pikkola operates the page and nothing else: the answers come from Cloudflare and Google, and the studio does not control them.

Accuracy

DNS answers are what a resolver believed at the moment it was asked. They can be stale by design, and they can be wrong because the zone is wrong. Do not make a decision that costs money from a single lookup, especially not during a migration. Nothing here is monitoring, alerting, or a guarantee that a service is reachable.

Acceptable use

Use it by hand, in a browser, for domains you have reason to look at. Do not use it to attack anyone: no automated bulk querying, no attempt to overload the page or the resolvers behind it, no use to map a third party's infrastructure for harm. The page has no server of ours to overload, but the two resolvers do, and their terms apply to the traffic you generate.

No warranty

The page is provided as it is, without warranty of any kind. To the extent the law allows, Pikkola is not liable for any loss arising from its use, including a record interpreted wrongly or a change made on the strength of what it showed.

Third-party services and links

Queries go to Cloudflare and Google under their own terms. Links to other Pikkola tools, to Gumroad and to Buy Me a Coffee lead to services with their own terms and privacy policies.

Changes

The page may change or stop without notice. These terms may change with it, and the date above will say when. Continuing to use the page after a change means the new version applies.
