Understanding IP Geolocation Data

IP geolocation provides an approximate location based on where your internet service provider registers the IP address, not your exact home address or device location

Virtual private networks (VPNs) and proxy servers will display the server location instead of where you're actually connecting from

Location accuracy can vary because some IP addresses may show outdated information if the geolocation database hasn't been recently updated

The ISP information reveals which organization controls the IP address range, which might be different from your actual internet provider if you're using mobile data or enterprise networks

This IP lookup data is meant for general information only and shouldn't be relied on for emergency response services or precise geographic targeting

An IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a unique numerical identifier assigned to every device connected to the internet. Your ISP assigns one to your home router, allowing you to communicate with web servers worldwide. IP geolocation maps these addresses to real-world locations by consulting databases maintained by regional internet registries and geolocation companies.

The "Your IP Info" tab automatically displays your current public IP address along with location, ISP, and network details. The "Lookup Any IP" tab lets you enter any IP address to retrieve its geolocation data. Results include country, region, city, ISP, network information, and an interactive map showing the approximate location.

IPv4 addresses use four numbers separated by periods (e.g., 192.168.1.1), providing about 4.3 billion possible addresses. IPv6 uses eight groups of hexadecimal numbers separated by colons, providing 340 undecillion addresses to accommodate future growth. Most modern networks support both formats.

Geographic Data: Country, region, city, postal code, and coordinates. This shows where the ISP registers the IP block, not necessarily your exact physical location.

Network Information: ISP/organization name, ASN (Autonomous System Number), network range, and technical routing details.

Additional Context: Timezone, currency, calling code, and sometimes whether the IP belongs to a proxy, VPN, or data center.

Website Analytics: Understand visitor geography to tailor content and identify market opportunities.

Security & Fraud Prevention: Detect suspicious logins, identify hacking attempts, and flag fraudulent transactions by comparing IP location with billing addresses.

Content Restrictions: Streaming services use IP geolocation to enforce regional licensing agreements.

Network Troubleshooting: IT professionals diagnose connectivity issues and trace malicious traffic sources.

VPN Testing: Verify your VPN works by checking if it displays the VPN server's location instead of your real location.

IP geolocation is generally accurate for country-level identification (95-99%) but less precise at city level (50-75% within 25 miles). Accuracy depends on how ISPs manage IP allocations. Large national ISPs may register all IPs to headquarters, while regional ISPs show better accuracy.

Mobile Networks: Cellular carriers assign IPs from centralized pools, not local towers, making location less accurate.

VPNs & Proxies: These services deliberately mask your true location by routing traffic through remote servers.

Dynamic IPs: Most residential users have dynamic IPs that change periodically, making long-term tracking difficult.

Public IPs are globally unique and visible across the internet - this is what IP lookup tools analyze. Private IPs (10.x.x.x, 172.16-31.x.x, 192.168.x.x) operate within local networks and aren't accessible from the internet. Your router uses NAT (Network Address Translation) to allow multiple devices with private IPs to share one public IP.

Your IP address reveals your general location and ISP but not your exact street address or personal identity. Only ISPs can link IPs to specific customers, and they require legal authorization (court orders) to share this information with law enforcement.

Protecting Your IP: VPN services encrypt traffic and replace your IP with the VPN server's address. Tor browser routes traffic through multiple encrypted layers for strong anonymity. Note that private browsing modes don't hide your IP address.

We don't store, log, or save any IP addresses you search. Your browser connects directly to the geolocation API, so lookup data never passes through our servers. All searches remain completely private and confidential.
