You're still VFR while flying IFR practice approaches. No
separation or terrain warning is provided.

FAA policy is to provide separation to VFR aircraft while conducting
practice instrument approaches where it is practical to do so.
Generally,
that means Class D airspace or higher with good radar coverage.


Some background:


Order JO 7210.3V Facility Operation and Administration

Thanks, Steven!

I always learn lots when you post helpful stuff like that. I now have
better understanding of what's really going on.

If you're bored sometime or need some reading material for the crapper, it's
not a bad idea to read through the ATC orders just to learn the rules they
play by. You can find them at:

7110.65 is a good one, and the NOTAM order 7930.2 is worth reading also. If
nothing else, they are good reference material.
