What is an IP address?
An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique number assigned to every device connected to the internet. It works like a "postal address" for your device - without it, you couldn't send or receive data online. There are two versions: IPv4 (e.g. 192.168.1.1) and the newer IPv6. You can look up any IP address using our tool.
Why should I protect my IP?
Your IP address reveals your approximate location and your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Advertisers, governments and malicious users can use it for tracking. With a VPN, your real IP is replaced - check if your VPN is working correctly or try our DNS Leak Test to make sure you are not leaking information.
Frequently Asked Questions
Your ISP may use NAT (Network Address Translation), so multiple devices share one public IP. Also, if you use a VPN, proxy or Tor, you see the server's IP instead of your own.
IPv4 uses 32-bit numbers (e.g. 192.168.1.1) and has about 4.3 billion addresses. IPv6 uses 128-bit and provides virtually unlimited addresses for the future of the internet.
Your IP reveals an approximate location (city/region), not your exact address. Only your ISP knows exactly who you are. With legal procedures, authorities can request this information.
The most effective method is using a VPN. Other options include proxy servers and the Tor network. Each method offers different levels of anonymity and speed.
A VPN (Virtual Private Network) encrypts your traffic and routes it through a server in another location. Your real IP is hidden and your activity is encrypted. Try our VPN & Proxy Check to confirm you are protected.
Yes, using a VPN is completely legal in most countries including the EU. It is widely used by businesses, journalists and regular users to protect their privacy online.
IP geolocation is not GPS. It is based on databases that associate IP ranges with locations. It can be off by many kilometers, especially in rural areas or with mobile connections.
A DNS leak occurs when your DNS queries do not go through the VPN, revealing your ISP. Use our DNS Leak Test to check if you are protected.
