## Description

<b>Presentation of the Show IP plugin</b>

Show IP is a simple extension that detects and displays your current external IP address and geolocation information in a convenient popup window.

<b>What are the advantages?</b>

✓ Unlimited service and 100% free.
✓ Shows your public (remote, visible from the internet) IP address.
✓ Shows location information (if found), such as country, city and region.
✓ Shows if Cookies and JavaScript are enabled on your browser.
✓ Shows the information of the URL you are currently visiting.

<b>Explanation of the concept</b>

When your browser (the client) connects to an Internet site (the server), the IP address is transmitted in clear and it is therefore possible to display it.

An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a unique number assigned to each device wishing to communicate with the Internet.

The IP address is systematically traced and recorded in the logs or "activity logs" of the remote server.

However, it is possible to use a VPN or a proxy to change your public IP address and no longer be traceable on the internet.

<b>Security and user privacy</b>

⚠️ This plugin does not retain or store any information about your data.
It only displays public data that everyone can see.

<b>Let's respect privacy together!</b>
