Browser fingerprint test
Sites can build a 'fingerprint' from your browser's characteristics to recognize you without cookies. Here's what yours exposes.
Your browser exposes all of this without cookies:
Approximate fingerprint hash:
…How to use the browser fingerprint test
- Open the page — your browser traits are read automatically.
- Review what's exposed and the resulting fingerprint hash.
- Harden your browser (or use Tor Browser) to reduce uniqueness.
What this means
Sites combine these traits into a "fingerprint" that can recognize you even after you clear cookies or switch to private browsing. The more unusual your combination, the more identifiable you are.
Does a VPN stop fingerprinting?
No. A VPN hides your IP address; it does nothing about these browser traits. Fingerprinting and IP hiding are separate problems — pair a VPN with an anti-fingerprinting browser (like Tor Browser or a hardened Firefox) if that's your threat model.
Code & API examples
Use this from the command line or your code.
Browser only (JS)

Frequently asked questions
A technique that combines dozens of browser and device traits (screen size, fonts, timezone, GPU, etc.) into an identifier that can track you even with cookies cleared.
No — a VPN hides your IP, not your browser traits. Fingerprinting and IP hiding are separate problems; use anti-fingerprinting tools alongside a VPN.
