Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about onion sharing, Tor, and staying private.
An .onion address is a special domain used exclusively within the Tor network. Unlike regular websites that expose the server's IP address, onion services are hosted inside the Tor network, meaning neither the visitor nor the service reveals its real-world location.
Every onion address is also self-certified — the address itself is derived from the site's cryptographic public key — so you get authentication and encryption for free, with no certificate authority required.
