Ever asked yourself, “How do I find my IP address?” You’re definitely not the only one. An IP address is a unique identifier tied to your online presence — kind of like a digital return address.
Whether you're checking your inbox, browsing your favorite shops, or chatting with friends, your IP quietly supports your connection in the background. Assigned by your Internet Service Provider (ISP), this number helps you get online from home, the office, or even while traveling. Your IP can vary if you change networks — say, from Wi-Fi to mobile data. Want to know your current IP? Just check the top of this page.

A public IP address is a globally unique number that helps identify your device on the internet, allowing it to communicate with other devices around the world.
Think of it like your online mailing address — it’s how data finds its way to and from your device. Your ISP assigns this address, and it's visible to others across the internet, distinguishing your connection from the rest.

We do not store any IP data on our systems in the long term - during your visit we only process the data that is absolutely technically necessary.

Locating your IP address is easier than you might think — and doesn’t take any technical know-how.

Remember: your IP can give away details like your location and ISP. If staying private is a priority, consider using tools like VPNs or proxy services to help conceal your digital footprint.

Your public IP plays a big part in how you interact online. Here's why it’s important:
Internet Access: It helps websites and services route information to your device.
  Privacy & Security: Knowing your IP gives you a head start in securing your data, since this address can reveal your approximate location and other identifying info.
  Remote Features & Gaming: It lets you remotely access home networks, play online games, and use services like voice calls over the internet.
  Hosting Sites or Servers: A public IP lets others connect to a website or server you might be running.
Keep in mind, while your IP is essential, it can also expose you to privacy risks. Tools like VPNs or proxies can help keep your real IP hidden for a more secure browsing experience.
