Is Bright SDK a "Third Party Proxy"?

  • Updated


No. Bright SDK is not a third-party proxy, and it does not function as a general-purpose proxy that any external party can route traffic through.

All requests that pass through Bright SDK originate exclusively from authenticated Bright Data servers. No third party — other than Bright Data — can send requests through Bright SDK. The SDK is technically configured to only accept connections from Bright Data's own authenticated infrastructure, meaning Bright Data retains full visibility and control over all traffic at all times.

The websites accessed through Bright SDK are limited to a closed, pre-approved list. This list exists to keep Bright Data's public web datasets up to date — for example, product pricing, public business listings, and other publicly available information. The types of data collected and the categories of websites accessed are documented in Bright Data's public datasets catalog. You can see the type of data collected and the websites the information is collected from in the datasets page.
