IP-address is considered personal data. So when the browsers visits a page with the JS, the IP-address of the user is transferred to your server. So that means the website I am visiting is sharing my IP-address with a third-party (you).

Only if there is no way to identify the user. A hash or anonymised id is still personal data if you can identify a person with it.
