What is an IP?

What your IP address and connection reveal

Your IP address is like your digital home address. Every site you visit can see it and learn your approximate location, internet provider and much more

Sites can collect even more information about you

Beyond your IP address, sites can detect your browser, operating system, screen resolution, language settings and more through browser fingerprinting

Can you hide your location by changing your IP?

Yes, with a VPN. When you connect to a VPN server, sites see the server's IP instead of yours. This hides your real location and protects your privacy

What types of IP addresses are there?

IPv4 and IPv6

IPv4 addresses use a 32-bit format (e.g. 192.168.1.1), while IPv6 uses 128-bit (e.g. 2001:0db8::1). IPv6 was created to handle the growing number of devices connected to the internet.

Public IP address

Your public IP address is assigned by your internet provider and is visible to sites. It can reveal your approximate geographic location.

Dynamic IP address

Most home internet connections use dynamic IP addresses that change periodically. Your provider assigns a new IP each time you reconnect.

Private IP address

Private IP addresses are used within your local network (e.g. 192.168.x.x). They are not visible on the internet.
