Every value here is read inside your browser and never sent to our servers.

What every website can see about you

None of the values above required a permission prompt. They are read from standard web APIs that exist so pages can adapt to your device — and the same APIs let any site build a profile of your setup the moment you load it.

Screen and viewport

Screen resolution is the size of your display; viewport is the visible area inside the browser window, which is smaller and changes when you resize or open developer tools. Device pixel ratio tells a site how many physical pixels back each CSS pixel — 2 or 3 on modern phones and Retina displays — so it can serve appropriately sized images.

Timezone and language

Your timezone is derived from your operating system clock, not your IP address, which is why it can disagree with your apparent location when a VPN is active. That mismatch is a well-known signal: a connection routed through Amsterdam whose browser reports Asia/Baghdad is visibly using a VPN.

Hardware hints

CPU core count and touch support exist to help sites tune their behaviour — limiting parallel work on a modest device, or enlarging tap targets on a touchscreen. They are also strong fingerprinting inputs, because the combination is far less common than any single value.

How fingerprinting works in practice

No single value here identifies you. The power comes from combination. Your browser and version might be shared with millions; add an unusual screen size, a specific timezone, a particular language list and a CPU core count, and the population sharing all of them at once can drop to a handful.

Because it needs no storage, fingerprinting survives clearing cookies and works in private browsing. It is the main reason cookie-blocking alone is not sufficient privacy protection.

Reducing your exposure

  • Use a browser that actively defends against it. Tor Browser standardises values across all users; Firefox offers resistFingerprinting; Brave randomises certain outputs.
  • Do not over-customise. Every unusual setting adds entropy. A stock configuration blends in better than a heavily modified one.
  • Understand what a VPN does. It changes your IP address and nothing on this page. Your fingerprint crosses the tunnel unchanged.

Frequently asked questions

What information does my browser reveal to websites?

Without asking permission, a site can read your User-Agent, screen and window size, colour depth, language preferences, timezone, whether cookies are enabled, how many CPU cores you have and which input methods you support. Everything listed on this page is available to any site you visit.

What is browser fingerprinting?

Fingerprinting combines many individually unremarkable details — screen size, timezone, language, fonts, graphics rendering quirks — into a signature that is often unique to one browser. Because it needs no cookie and no storage, clearing your cookies does not reset it and private browsing does not prevent it.

Does IPGet store any of this?

No. Every value on this page is read by JavaScript in your browser and displayed directly. None of it is transmitted to our servers, logged, or stored anywhere.

How can I reduce what my browser exposes?

Use a browser with fingerprinting protection such as Firefox with resistFingerprinting, Brave, or the Tor Browser. Avoid unusual customisations that make you stand out, and prefer well-maintained privacy extensions over stacking many small ones — each modification you make is itself a distinguishing signal.
