A residential proxy allows you to specify a location (such as a country, city, or mobile carrier) and browse the internet as if you were in that location. These proxies act as intermediaries, masking your IP address and shielding you from standard web traffic. Provided by the service provider, these alternative IP addresses ensure your online activity and identity remain anonymous.

Residential proxies route your internet traffic through an intermediary server, which assigns you an IP address associated with a real device. When you make a request, it is sent to the resource server via your residential proxy, concealing your actual IP and making your activity appear like that of a regular user.

Quality residential proxy services allow for targeting specific countries and cities, and ensure all requests are HTTPS encrypted for maximum security.
