Websites cannot glean more information about a visitor from the IP address other than the country of origin.
So, the only way to find out more information such as email, home address, tel no., Zip/Postal code is to get the visitor to fill out a form.
What they then do with this information is anybody’s guess.
It could be used for legitimate marketing purposes, spamming or sometimes criminal activities.
Be careful which websites you give information to.
I suggest sticking to the reputable websites to make sure everything remains as you would like it to be.
