What Is My Location?

Where websites think you are, and where your device says you are

Finding your location…

Two Ways Your Location Is Found

From your IP address. Every website can look up your IP in a geolocation database and get your country, region and usually your city. No permission is needed, which is why sites show local prices or content. Check yours on What Is My IP.

From your device. Phones and laptops combine GPS, nearby Wi-Fi networks and cell towers to find your exact position. Browsers only share it after you allow it on the prompt, and apps need location permission.

How to Turn Off Location Sharing

  • Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Site settings → Location.
  • Safari on iPhone: Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → Safari Websites.
  • Android: Settings → Location → App location permissions.
  • Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Permissions → Location.

Your IP location can't be switched off in settings. A VPN replaces it with the server's. You can look up any other address on our IP lookup.

Location FAQs

Quick answers to common questions.

The IP location comes from a database of where your provider registers its addresses, so it's usually your city or a nearby one. The device location uses GPS, Wi-Fi and cell towers and is accurate to a few meters, but only shared when you allow it.
Not without asking. Every site sees your IP location automatically. Your precise location is only shared if you tap Allow on the browser's location prompt. You can review those permissions in your browser's site settings.
Mobile carriers often route traffic through a regional hub, and IP databases can lag behind when providers move address blocks. A VPN also shows the VPN server's city. That's normal and doesn't affect your device's GPS.
No. The IP location is looked up on our server and not saved. The precise location never leaves your browser; it's only drawn on the map on this page.
Connect to a VPN server in another place. Websites then see the server's IP location instead of yours. Your device's GPS location doesn't change, so also turn off location permission for sites you don't trust.
