IP address FAQ
Your public IP, explained.
What is a public IP address?
It is the internet-facing address used by your connection so websites can send requested data back to you.
Does my IP reveal my exact location?
No. IP geolocation is approximate. It may identify a country, region or nearby city, but not your precise home address.
Can my IP address change?
Yes. Your provider may assign a new address, and changing networks or connecting to a VPN can also change the public IP you see.
How does a VPN change the visible IP?
A VPN routes your traffic through a VPN server. Websites then see the server IP instead of the public IP assigned to your connection.
