What can be revealed?
What can my IP address tell about me?
Your IP might initially provide a lot of information about you, such as:
Location info:

- Country
- State
- City
- Zip Code


Device info:
- Fingerprints
- Cookies
- Metadata
- Device manufacturer
IP and cookies can be used to target online ads and track your online activity.
Without a VPN, your actual IP address is exposed to anyone interested in such information. It's possible for hackers to find out to which ISP (Internet Service Provider) belongs your IP address.

All this information can be traced back to your account with ISP and can lead to possible leak of the following sensitive data:
- Your Name
- Home address
- Phone number
- Credit card number
- Credit history
That’s why it is vital to hide and protect your actual IP address.
Data retention as a breach of privacy
“Data retention” means recording and storing your information for a specified period of time. It is primarily relevant to businesses that store data to service their customers and comply with government or industry regulations.

Strict censorship combined with data retention might result in fines or even imprisonment in some countries with authoritarian policies.

If you make the VPN a part of your digital privacy and security, it can prevent data retention no matter where you are.
How hackers can use my IP
How can someone get access to your IP
  • Your email
Your email: Some email servers can reveal your IP in the email heading. Try to avoid using such email providers.
  • Your computer
If you give your device to someone even for a couple of minutes, it could be enough to find your IP address in the settings
  • Phishing attacks
Clicking on fake links from suspicious emails or sms can make you vulnerable to hackers very likely.
  • Torrent files
When you download/upload data via Torrent apps your IP address is visible in the peer's list. You can bypass it by using VPN.
  • Online ads
It's not necessary for a fake link to gather your IP address. If you click on an ad, even one that is lawful, it might collect this data. We call this adware.
  • Router Vulnerabilities
Your router’s default password and other vulnerabilities can become a perfect opportunity for hackers to get access to it and view your IP address.
How can someone use my IP?
Your IP address can be used in many ways, here are the most common of them:
Including phone numbers, SSN, email, birthday, and other vital for identity theft data.
Discover personal information about you
Since the IP address indicates the city, where you are, it’s not a huge deal for skilled hackers to figure out your actual address.
Learn your geographic location
It can also be an issue since experienced hackers can impersonate your online activity through your address instead of their own.
Frame you for crimes
Advertisers are becoming smarter every day and it’s not uncommon for them to embed tracking programs, e.g to online articles.
Personalized ads sending
Netflix and other popular online services only offer access to the episodes and films available in that country.
Other businesses charge various prices based on your location.
Limit the services you can access
Why should I change IP?
Why should I change my IP address?
Apart from the issues described above, the reasons could be as follows:
Prevent websites from following you for ad purposes
Evade IP bans and avoid IP-linked download limits
Prevent ISP/government censorship
Access geo-restricted content from your home country while you’re abroad
Why is DNS leak protection so important?
DNS, or the Domain Name System, translates human-readable domain names (e.g www.vpnrentals.com) to machine-readable IP addresses (e.g 234.1. 3.46).

VPN creates a tunnel between the client and the VPN server.
During an active VPN session, the data is encrypted, and the user's IP address is replaced with another one.

However, if the VPN is set up improperly, or the OS limitations are not considered, it may leak DNS queries to the ISP or even reveal your IP.
