To locate your IP address, STUN servers utilize WebRTC technology. To get the IP address, HTTP servers make use of the fetch API. In general, all third-party servers should have the same IP address. However, under some circumstances, they may display different IP addresses. All changes in the popup UI are automatically saved to memory as soon as they are made.
Note: This extension accesses a number of third-party API engines in order to display your IP address. Unless you choose a server, this add-on does not connect to any third-party website or service in any way. Furthermore, it does not store any information remotely. However, third-party servers (HTTP or STUN) have their own policies and regulations for storing IP addresses. As a result, before using any server, please familiarize yourself with its privacy statement. This add-on has no say in the matter of their privacy policies.
