Probably not the IP of your machine, but the IP of your gateway is sent to whatever domain from which you are requesting data. (How is it going to know to where to send the return data?) So yes, when you request the Map API javascript script files from Google, your gateway IP will be sent to Google.
Browser information is usually sent as well, although you can change this with many browsers. Cookie behaviour you can control with your browser (I don't think that the Map API per se sets any cookies, but the rest of google piles them in - google ads, blogs, gmail, etc). If you don't want this information to leave the country then don't access any domains that are resident outside your country and turn cookies off in your browser; although you might find both of these behaviours very restrictive! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
