💡 Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a UUID Version 4?
UUID v4 is a 128-bit universally unique identifier generated using 122 bits of pure random entropy, making collisions virtually impossible.
Q: Are generated UUIDs truly unique?
Yes! The probability of generating a duplicate UUID v4 is 1 in 2^122, which is practically zero.
Q: Are these UUIDs generated on the server?
No, all UUID generation is performed client-side using browser Web Crypto APIs.
Q: What is the difference between UUID v1 and UUID v4?
UUID v1 uses MAC address and timestamp values, while UUID v4 is strictly cryptographically random, protecting hardware anonymity.
