    Transparent proxy = No privacy. It passes the original information and tells the destination server that the requests is coming from a proxy.

    Anonymous proxy = It hides your IP address but uses a common IP for number of users so there are positive as well as negative side of it.

    Elite proxy = Highly anonymous. Provides best security since it make your system look like a non-proxied server.

    Anonymous proxy = It knows that you are a proxy but can't determinate your ip
