The location of the server and who it is managed by are very important in terms of both security and data privacy. By detecting the location of the web server, an important determination can be made about international data transfers.

Servers also respond to DNS queries and perform other important tasks to keep the Internet up and running. Most servers are kept in large data centers, which are located throughout the world.

A web server connects to the Internet and supports physical data interchange with other devices connected to the web. It includes several parts that control how web users access hosted files. At a minimum, this is an HTTP server.
