Does the "GeoIP 2 (Php)" configuration shares IPs with a third party?

I use Matomo in a Docker instance and have my instance configure with "GeoIP 2 (Php)". I'm pretty concerned that my visitor information are shared with a third party (Maximind?). Is that the case or everything runs locally?

Matomo uses a free database downloaded from Maxmind to do geolocation. No visitor IPs will be send to Maxmind.
