Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

  • Mobile Proxies: Mimic mobile users, useful for app testing and social media tasks.
  • Shared vs. Dedicated Proxies: Shared among users vs. dedicated for an individual, allowing more control.
  • Static (ISP) vs. Rotating Proxies: Static maintains a consistent IP while rotating change IPs automatically.

While this guide touched on what’s needed to set up your Browser profile, we have a dedicated resource, including a video tutorial, that explains the steps in more detail. Check out our guide on how to set up a browser profile in Incogniton.

By connecting to the internet through a proxy server, your IP address is masked via a proxy server, making it difficult for websites and online services to track your browsing habits and identify your physical location. 

This enhanced privacy can help protect your personal information and online identity, allowing you to browse the web more anonymously and securely.

Using a proxy, such as with Incogniton or any browser, is essential to safeguard your online privacy and security. Without a proxy, your real IP address and location are exposed to every website you visit, even if it claims to be secure.

When you operate multiple profiles without the protection of a proxy, these profiles can be linked together, potentially compromising your online privacy. To understand how websites perceive your IP address and location, you can use the whoer.net online tool.
