Extra Privacy


Shared Surrogate - Extra Privacy


The Shared Surrogate offers extra privacy by hiding your home IP Address behind the Browser Surrogates IP Address. Destination websites will see the Surrogates IP Address which prevents them from attributing your Browser fingerprint and web browsing to your IP Address.

Check out the example below, which shows how this service will hide your IP Address from destination websites.

Home IP Address


Here we can see my Home IP Address and Location information. This information is provided by the destination website based on the information it can see from my web traffic.

Home IP Address
