How Browser Detection Works
Every time your browser requests a web page, it transmits an identification string called a User-Agent header to the web server. This string tells the server your browser name, operating system, and rendering engine so that the server can format the page correctly for your device.
Beyond the User-Agent, modern browsers expose numerous characteristics through JavaScript client APIs. Our tool queries features such as CSS capability matches, GPU rendering properties (WebGL), cookie acceptance configurations, and screen canvas details to construct a comprehensive profile of your browser.
Understanding Your Browser Features
To deliver rich interfaces, browsers support standard technologies like WebGL, JavaScript, and cookie stores. However, because these APIs expose detailed hardware characteristics (like your graphic card vendor or screen resolution), ad networks and security systems can use them for browser fingerprinting.
A browser fingerprint is a unique signature built from your specific combination of screen size, system fonts, and active browser engines, which can be tracked across the web even without using traditional cookies.
