VPN Check
Confirm that a VPN is active and not leaking alternate network paths.
What this checks
- Visible HTTP exit IP, country, ASN, operator, and VPN classification.
- Proxy, Tor, privacy relay, datacenter, cloud, usage type, and confidence signals around the visible IP.
- Related IP leak, DNS leak, WebRTC leak, and IPv6 or dual-stack checks for full VPN leak validation.
How to interpret results
- VPN detected means the visible IP is classified as VPN or has VPN-like usage evidence.
- VPN-like infrastructure means adjacent privacy, proxy, datacenter, relay, or cloud traits are present but no explicit VPN label was returned.
- No VPN signal in current data means the IP data did not identify VPN use and must be checked with leak tests before drawing conclusions.
Common issues
- Some VPN exits look like datacenter, cloud, proxy, or privacy relay infrastructure instead of a direct VPN label.
- DNS or WebRTC leaks can exist even when the visible HTTP IP is a VPN exit.
Privacy note
The VPN check uses first-party IP intelligence data for the visible IP and links to dedicated browser leak tests for DNS and WebRTC paths.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this VPN check prove my VPN is safe?
No. It checks the visible exit-IP VPN signal first, then points you to IP, DNS, WebRTC, and IPv6 checks to verify browser and resolver paths.
What if no VPN signal is detected?
No VPN signal means the current IP intelligence data did not classify the visible IP as VPN. It does not prove that no VPN is active or that all traffic paths are safe.
