What Information Does My Browser Reveal?
Every time you open a website, your browser sends a "handshake" to the server. This handshake includes a lot of hidden details about your computer. This is called your User-Agent string. It tells the website which browser you are using and which version of Windows or macOS you have.
While websites need some of this info to show you the right layout, they often collect more than they need. By using our browser info tool, you can see exactly what data you are sharing with the world.
Privacy Tip:
Use the IP Tracking Site to check if your browser is leaking your internal IP address through WebRTC. This can happen even if you are using a VPN!
How Browser Fingerprinting Works
Tracking has changed in 2026. Websites no longer rely just on "Cookies" (which you can delete). Instead, they use fingerprinting. This process combines small details like your screen size, installed fonts, and CPU power to create a unique ID that belongs only to your computer.
This ID is like a digital fingerprint. It follows you across the web, even if you clear your history or use "Incognito" mode. This is why knowing your browser info is the first step to taking back your privacy.
How to Keep Your Browser Private
- Use a Private Browser: Browsers like Brave or Firefox are built to block tracking and hide your digital fingerprint.
- Keep Software Updated: Always install the latest updates to get the newest security and privacy features.
- Check Your Privacy Audit: Regularly use our tool to see if your "Do Not Track" setting is active.
- Analyze Your Headers: Use our Headers Analyzer to see the full technical details of your web requests.
Common Questions
Can websites see my battery level?
Yes, some browsers share your battery status. Trackers use this tiny detail to help identify your device among millions of others.
Does Incognito mode hide my browser info?
No. Incognito only stops your browser from saving your history locally. It does not stop websites from seeing your hardware specs or IP address.
