About Version 4

A version 4 UUID is generated almost entirely from random data: 122 random bits, with 6 bits fixed to mark the version and variant. This site uses a cryptographically secure random number generator, so collisions are astronomically unlikely. It's the right choice whenever you just need a unique value and don't care about ordering.
