Question 5

How does a proxy server work to protect your data?

Answer

A proxy server is a dedicated computer or a software system that runs on a computer and acts as an intermediary between an endpoint device, such as a computer and another server from which a user or client is requesting a service. So, the tracking website will get the information on the proxy server and we can still browse the site without disclosing our IP address or location.
