Your IP and Browser Fingerprint
See what any website learns about you the moment a page opens — no sign-up, no cookies.
Every site you open, and your internet provider, sees this address.
We don't work out your city or provider and we don't store the address: it is simply sent back to you in the reply. Sites with IP databases do that on their own.
A combination of your device's settings that can identify you without cookies.
Computed in your browser from the parameters below; it is not sent to a server and not stored anywhere. Change your browser or settings and the fingerprint changes.

What this means for you
From your IP address, sites work out your country, approximate city and provider. Changing network or turning on a VPN changes the address, but not the fingerprint.
A fingerprint lets sites recognize you without cookies: even in incognito mode or after clearing history, the set of parameters stays the same.
How to leave fewer traces
- Use a VPN or proxy if you want to hide your IP address from the sites you visit (the VPN provider will see it instead — choose one you trust).
- Firefox, Brave and Tor Browser try to make the fingerprint less unique.
- Don't install extra extensions: every extension makes your set of signals more distinctive.
- Keep your browser up to date: updates close some tracking methods.
- For signing up on questionable sites, use a temporary email so different sites can't be tied together by one address.
Why sites recognize you without cookies
When you open a page, your browser tells it dozens of parameters: language, time zone, screen size, graphics card model, list of fonts. Each of them means little on its own, but together they form an almost unique "signature" — a browser fingerprint.
How a fingerprint differs from an IP address
An IP address depends on the network: switch Wi-Fi or turn on a VPN and the address changes. A fingerprint depends on the device and browser and stays the same on any network. That's why real privacy needs both.
What this page does
It shows the same data any site can collect and computes a fingerprint from it right in your browser. We send nothing to a server and store nothing; the only thing the server does is return your own IP address to you.
