What is an IP address?
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a numeric label assigned to your device when it connects to the internet. It helps route traffic to and from your device. There are two main versions: IPv4 (e.g. 203.0.113.5) and IPv6 (longer hexadecimal addresses). Your public IP is the address visible to websites and services.
Why we can see your IP
Websites and APIs like ipapi.co can see the IP address of the connection that requests them. This page simply queries that API to show basic information (location, ISP, ASN, timezone). We do not store your IP by default — this is a transient lookup in your browser.
Privacy & Safety
- We do not collect or store your IP address when you use this tool in the browser.
- Your ISP and some online services can link activity to your public IP.
- To hide your public IP, use a trusted VPN or Tor browser — note these affect performance and may change your apparent location.
Quick troubleshooting
- If the page can't fetch details, your browser may block the external API or network connectivity is limited.
- IPv6 addresses look longer and include letters and colons; IPv4 are short numeric addresses.
- Your IP can change when you reconnect to your network, switch Wi‑Fi/cell networks, or your ISP uses dynamic addressing.
FAQ
Q: Does this page store my IP?
A: No — this page performs a browser-side lookup and does not save your IP to our servers.
Q: Can someone find my exact street address from IP?
A: No. IP geolocation gives approximate city/region. It is not precise enough to reveal a street address.
Q: Why is my location different from where I am?
A: Location is derived from ISP routing and registry data which can show the ISP's regional endpoint rather than your precise location.
