Find the geographic location of an IP address.
Enter an IP address to find its geographic location and network information.
IP geolocation is the process of determining the geographic location of an internet-connected device based on its IP address. This technology is used for a variety of purposes, from content localization to fraud detection.
IP addresses are assigned to internet service providers (ISPs) in blocks, often corresponding to geographic regions. Geolocation databases map these IP blocks to physical locations, using information from regional internet registries, ISP data, and other sources. The accuracy can vary from country-level to city-level precision.
IP geolocation is not always accurate. VPNs, proxies, and mobile networks can mask a user's true location. Additionally, IP addresses assigned to large organizations may appear to be in a different location than the actual user.
IP geolocation should be used responsibly, with respect for user privacy. While an IP address alone typically cannot identify an individual user, it can provide general location information that may be considered personal data under some privacy regulations like GDPR.
