I have an iPad A1893, I’m using it now, sometimes, it identifies as an Apple Mac it does on Apple ID. Any ideas?

By example, this is how my own iPad identifies itself to websites - as Mac computer!
What do you mean it identifies as a Mac? Where are you seeing this identification exactly?
What do you mean by "it does on Apple ID"? Do you mean it has the word Mac in its name in the device list at https://appleid.apple.com?
Please explain in as much detail as possible, where you are seeing this, and what exactly you are seeing.
I have a Google account with devices list and the ipad A1893 saying it was an Apple Mac that I was using. Also I have a McAfee security system which also shows this Apple A1893 as an Apple Mac I have never owned one. In Google in the device listing even when I’m using the iPad it shows as an Apple Mac
If I go into Security and then the device list it says I’m using a Mac and in my Macafee account It says I have an Apple Mac. Although it’s the right amount of devices I have never owned an Apple Mac only iPhones and ipads
I can see it in front of me as I’m on the iPad
I’ve done that and it says it’s an Apple Mac it’s very confusing so you think it’s ok?
Thank you you’ve put my mind at rest
Thanks for your help it’s put my mind a5 rest
You are very welcome.
