Understanding what information websites can collect about you
Your IP address is your unique identifier on the internet. It can be used to track your online activity and location.
Websites can identify you by combining browser version, screen resolution, installed fonts, and other system characteristics.
WebRTC can expose your real IP address even when using a VPN, potentially compromising your privacy protection.
Web browsers restrict network testing for security. Ping tests, DNS leak detection, and traceroute cannot provide accurate results in browser environments.
Use this information to better understand and protect your online privacy. Consider using VPNs, ad blockers, and privacy-focused browsers.
The IP lookup tool traces your IP address by leveraging IP geolocation data to map out possible networks and a range of IP addresses that originate from that area. The IP finder then sends requests to those possible IP addresses until it detects one or more devices that respond.
Since network data is publicly available, the IP lookup tool can identify your IP address, internet service provider (ISP), Autonomous System (ASN) information, and DNS information. It can also identify granular details, including device models, operating systems, and connection speeds.
Important note
Any information discovered by an IP lookup tool is publicly available and for educational purposes only. While you can check public IP information, it won’t provide names, exact addresses, or any other identifying information.
Every device or network has an IP (Internet Protocol) address. It's a unique number assigned to your network or device, and is used to identify and share data. For example, your ISP assigns your network an IP address to enable your internet connection.
However, there are two types of IP addresses: public, which an ISP assigns to a router, and private, which is used locally by and between your devices.
Public –This is the IP address given to your service router by your ISP. Public IP addresses are traceable and reveal who's providing the connection and where it's located.
Private – Individual devices have a private IP address. While your internet connection comes through a public IP, other devices, such as your laptop, phone, or smart devices, have private IP addresses that you can use to enable them to communicate with one another within the same private network.
Knowing your various IP addresses is critical for identifying what you're referring to, whether it's your public connection or a specific device. You can use this information to trace network or security issues back to their source and know where to look during future testing.
The IP address lookup tool also provides additional information when possible, including: IP geolocation, internet service provider (ISP), WebRTC leak detection, security threat analysis, system information, and DNS analysis.

ShowMyIP is a free IP lookup tool that shows your public IP address, location, ISP information, and security details instantly.
Privacy Note
This tool demonstrates how much information websites can gather about your connection. We're attempting to detect your real IP address even if you're using a VPN or proxy service through various techniques including WebRTC leak detection.
Checking for IP Leaks via WebRTC STUN servers...
Note: This test uses WebRTC STUN servers to detect potential DNS leaks by analyzing IP addresses from multiple geographic regions. For comprehensive testing, consider using dedicated tools like dnsleaktest.com.
Show my IP address. Use the free IP address lookup tool to find your public IP address, ISP data, location, WebRTC leaks, security threats, and DNS information.
If you want to keep your IP address private, such as by using a VPN, a DNS leak test will show if your data is exposed.
The IP address lookup tool can identify the network information, including the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS servers.
