How do I target Gothenburg in the proxy username?
The Gothenburg parameter is -country-se-city-gothenburg, appended to your username. It follows the English spelling rather than Göteborg, in lower case and without accents.
For a multi-step check, keep one Gothenburg IP with USERNAME-country-se-city-gothenburg-session-gothen1-ttl-10. Sticky sessions last up to 30 minutes (the IP can change earlier).
Geolocation databases sometimes label addresses on the edge of Gothenburg with a neighbouring municipality, such as Mölndal, Partille, Kungälv and Kungsbacka. Read the exit with an IP lookup before a long task.
Mölndal, Partille, Kungälv and Kungsbacka are separate municipalities within the Gothenburg metropolitan area.

This describes the local market, not the networks our pool uses at a given moment. Read the ASN of your exit with an IP lookup, or keep the exit on one network with -asn-<number> (ASN guide).
Which rules apply to checks run from Gothenburg?
Sweden's supervisory authority is the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (IMY). The framework is GDPR + Data Protection Act (SFS 2018:218). Shops in Gothenburg show prices with Sweden's 25% standard VAT included, which is one reason a local IP sees different totals than a foreign one. For official local data, start with the city's own Göteborgs Stad öppna data.
Collect only what you need, respect each site's terms and robots.txt, and see our GDPR checklist. This is not legal advice.
