What is my IP?

This is what every website you visit can see about you right now. Connect to PD-Proxy and reload the page — your IP and location will change to our server's.

What your browser reveals

WebRTC leak test

WebRTC lets browsers make calls, but it can reveal your real IP address even behind a VPN. Run the test while connected to the VPN: if you see an IP here that is not the VPN server's, you have a leak. Learn how to fix it in our leak test guide.

What is an IP address?

Blue network cables

Every device connected to the public Internet is assigned a unique number known as an Internet Protocol (IP) address. IPv4 addresses consist of four numbers separated by periods (a “dotted quad”) and look something like 127.0.0.1; newer IPv6 addresses are longer and written in hexadecimal, like 2001:db8::1.

An IP address is used to identify devices and let them communicate across networks. It is best compared to a mailing address: just as a letter cannot be delivered without an address, information cannot be sent or received by devices without one.

Since these numbers are usually assigned to internet service providers in region-based blocks, an IP address can often be used to identify the region, city or even the ISP a computer is connecting from. That is why websites can show you local ads, block content by country or build a profile of your visits.

When you connect to PD-Proxy, websites see the address of our VPN server instead — your real IP and location stay private. Learn why you should use a VPN.
