I have a website that stores no personal data, however it does use ($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']), a code that scans the IP address of visitors, but the IP address isn't stored anywhere. It's only scanned to automatically select the language for the site.



Personally I wouldn't call it "collecting" since IP address isn't stored anywhere, so I'm wondering how GDPR views it?
