Why use a VPN

Secure your internet connection

Our secure VPN sends your internet traffic through an encrypted VPN tunnel to keep your browsing data safe, even over public or untrusted internet connections.

Keep your data private

As a Swiss VPN provider, we do not log user activity or share data with third parties. Our anonymous VPN service keeps your browsing history private and enables an internet without surveillance.

Access to all the internet

We created Proton VPN to further protect the journalists, activists, and everyday citizens who use Proton Mail. Proton VPN breaks down the barriers of internet censorship, allowing you to access restricted online content.

Internet security for everyone

Our goal is to make online privacy accessible to all. We have focused on making the advanced security technology in Proton VPN easy to use and freely available.

Multi-platform support

Proton VPN is available on all your devices, including PCs, Macs, smartphones, and even routers.

A secure internet connection you can trust is essential to maintaining your privacy on your laptop at home, your mobile device on the road, or your workstation at the office.

Proton VPN has native apps for Windows, macOS, Linux, Chromebook, Android, Android TV and iOS/iPadOS.

Free VPN

We believe privacy and security are fundamental human rights, so we also provide a free version of Proton VPN to the public.

Unlike other free VPNs, there are no catches. We don't serve ads or secretly sell your browsing history. We are able to provide Proton VPN Free thanks to people who subscribe to a Proton VPN paid plan.

If you would like to support online privacy, please consider upgrading to a paid plan for faster speeds and more features.

Easy to use

The best security tools in the world will only protect you if used correctly and consistently.

We have simplified the Proton VPN interface to make it as intuitive as possible on all of your devices — so you can stay protected every day, hassle free.

Reliable

Bypass government censorship and other content restrictions with Proton VPN. Simply connect to one of our VPN servers located in a country that doesn’t censor the internet.

We’ve developed a new VPN protocol, Stealth, that can avoid detection and let you bypass internet censorship and VPN blocks.

Stream from anywhere

Proton VPN unblocks a wide selection of popular online media services, allowing you to access your favorite streaming content from anywhere in the world as if you were at home.

Our fast server network and unique VPN Accelerator technology also ensure your experience is smooth and free of buffering.

Fast VPN speeds

Proton VPN uses a 10 Gbps server network combined with our unique suite of VPN Accelerator technologies to improve speeds by up to 400%.

We use an advanced network TCP flow control algorithm to provide unparalleled performance and connection stability without compromising on security.

VPN Accelerator

VPN Accelerator is a set of technologies unique to Proton VPN that can increase your VPN speeds by up to 400%.

We created VPN Accelerator to dramatically increase speed and performance by overcoming CPU limitations, using advanced networking techniques, and redesigning VPN protocols themselves..

Stream movies with a fast VPN

Unblock content worldwide

Proton VPN has thousands of secure VPN servers all around the world, including several free VPN servers.

This ensures there is always a high-bandwidth server nearby no matter where you are connecting from, providing a low-latency VPN connection for browsing, streaming, and bypassing censorship.

We are the scientists, engineers, and cryptographers who built Proton Mail

The world's largest encrypted email service.

Our story begins where the web was born - at CERN, where our founding team of scientists met.

Like Proton Mail, Proton VPN is a community supported project with a simple goal: to build a safer internet that also protects civil liberties.

Unique features for a more secure VPN

Unlike other VPN services, Proton VPN is designed with security as the main focus, drawing upon the lessons we have learned from working with journalists and activists in the field.

Secure Core

Regular VPN services can be compromised if their servers are under surveillance. Proton VPN mitigates this by passing your traffic through our Secure Core network in privacy-friendly countries like Switzerland and Iceland first.

By routing your traffic through a privacy-friendly country, we keep your true IP address hidden even if an attacker compromises the endpoint server.

Perfect forward secrecy

Proton VPN exclusively uses ciphers with Perfect Forward Secrecy, meaning your encrypted traffic can’t be captured and decrypted later.

Netshield Ad-blocker

NetShield is a DNS filtering feature that protects you from malware, blocks ads, and prevents website trackers from following you as you surf the web.

Swiss based

We are headquartered in Switzerland, which has some of the world's strongest privacy laws. Switzerland is also outside of EU and US jurisdiction and is not a member of the 14 eyes surveillance network.

No-logs policy

Proton VPN is a no logs VPN service. We do not track or record your internet activity, and therefore we are unable to disclose this information to third parties.

Tor over VPN

Proton VPN also integrates with the Tor anonymity network. With a single click, you can route all your traffic through the Tor network and access Onion sites.

Unlimited bandwidth

We place no restrictions on how much data you can use when connected to our service. Even if you’re on our Free plan.

High-speed

Our network of high-speed VPN servers offers connections up to 10 Gbps.

Up to 10 devices

Use Proton VPN on up to 10 devices or browsers (via our browser extension) at the same time.

My personal recommendation is @ProtonVPN(new window) which has a free tier that you can use forever. It doesn't keep logs so even if someone did try and make hem hand over data, there's nothing to hand over. It's quick, easy to use and easy to set up on your phone and PC.
