Free VPN: Powerful Protection, No Cost

It depends very much on what VPN you're using. When it comes to trusting a VPN with your data, you need to look for the following things.

1. Does the virtual private network support itself with ads? Free VPN providers that serve you ads while you're online could be putting your privacy at risk by selling your data directly to advertisers. Many free VPNs make their money on this sort of scheme, which in many ways neutralizes the purpose of using a VPN, free or otherwise.
2. What do you have to do in order to access the free VPN service? A lot of free VPNs will require you to jump through hoops for extra data. This can include forcing you to sign up for email lists, advertising their service on social media, or even asking for a payment method despite being "free".
3. Are they a zero-log provider? Free VPN services that keep logs of your online data aren't safe to use. VPNs are regularly the target of government data requests, and the most secure way to keep your privacy intact is to keep no logs that can be handed over. No free VPN that keeps activity logs can be trusted with your data.

• The free version of PrivadoVPN is among the most generous VPN offerings online.
• We give you 10 free gigs of data every month, no questions. And unlike other VPNs, we don't require you to jump through hoops to get it.
• You can still do things with our free VPN that other VPNs don't allow, including large file downloads and online video.
• As a zero-log provider, your privacy is secure on our free VPN. You'll also get the benefits of 256-bit-AES encryption and IP masking, just like with a paid VPN, only for free.

No. We won't pull the trick that other VPNs do where the free account gets less robust support, slower connections, or "free" infrastructure separate from the premium network.

Just because something is a free VPN provider doesn't mean that it shouldn't make protecting your privacy easy and convenient.

VPNs with a free service don't necessarily have additional security threats, but it is possible.

First of all, a free VPN download might, itself, be malware. It's not unheard of for a VPN to give a free service as an excuse to mine your data or serve you targeted ads. A VPN like that can be difficult to remove from your system and waste valuable computing resources.

PrivadoVPN is the best free VPN on the market for several reasons.

First of all, we offer you 10 gigs of transfer for free every month with nothing but a verified email address.

Second, you get access to VPN servers around the world.

Third, you'll get the exact same VPN performance and privacy as you would with a premium VPN. Our free accounts use the same infrastructure as our premium ones, so you can feel safe online.

Finally, you can watch video and audio securely when you use the free version of our software. Most free offerings won't allow you to use their service for various services. We allow you to do both.

That is not something that can be really answered, since that can change drastically from day to day or even moment to moment. Free VPN testing can only measure the speeds in the moment, and free VPN applications can be affected by device load.

PrivadoVPN uses a network based on physical servers to ensure that our free vpn users get the fastest possible speeds while still protecting their privacy. Our free plan provides the same speed and protection as a paid plan.

PrivadoVPN is excellent for Android phones and tablets! Many free Android VPNs don't include advanced features like Split Tunneling or a solid Kill Switch, but PrivadoVPN includes everything you need to protect your personal information no matter where you are.

Absolutely not. We don't believe that offering high quality VPN service means that you pay with your data. Our free VPN service is supported by our premium members, so we can help people improve their online security without needing to sell their information to keep the lights on.
