Public IP and location
Your public IP is the address the lookup endpoint sees as the source of your request. After connecting to a route, it may change to that route’s exit address. If your browser uses a direct connection, it may remain unchanged.
Country and region are estimated using IP geolocation databases, not your device’s precise location. Database updates, IP allocation, and network routing can all affect the result, so it shouldn’t be used to determine where you actually are.
