Your IP address, cookies, browser data and accounts each tell sites something different. We look at what a VPN covers, which data it can hide, and where privacy needs more than a network tool.
- PrivacyWhat websites can learn from your IP address
What a public IP address genuinely reveals, and why it does not hand anyone your home address.
- PrivacyWhat a VPN protects, and what it cannot hide
Where a VPN genuinely raises your protection and privacy, and where you need other tools.
- PrivacyBrowser fingerprinting: how sites recognise you without cookies
How sites recognise the same browser by the combination of its settings, and why it works without cookies.
- PrivacyWhat a DNS leak is
Why your provider can still see the list of sites you open with a VPN on, and how to check.
