What is a computer ID?

Computer ID is a system generated identification number that allows for the following:

• Distinguishing specific computers and their configurations connected to your website
• Tracking the total activity of any connecting device regardless of its IP address

TraceMyIP generates a computer ID based on the following data:

• Connecting ISP data
• Connecting organization data
• Connecting network variables
• Computer variables such as
  • Browser specifications
  • Operating system specifications
  • System specific variables
• Geographical position of the connecting device

The computer ID will stay the same as long as the connecting device has a persistent configuration. When an IP address of connecting device has changed, the computer ID will stay the same.
