FAQ

Does PIA Sell Your Data?

No, Private Internet Access does not sell your data.

While it’s very difficult to say that with 100% certainty, we have found PIA to be a hugely trustworthy VPN. We’ve been testing it for years, and it’s never let us down. The company that runs it has also never done anything to make us question its commitment to privacy.

Is PIA Better than NordVPN?

The answer depends on what you want to use a VPN for. We rank NordVPN one position higher than Private Internet Access, but the two VPNs are very closely matched.

There are a few areas where they vary – for example NordVPN unblocks more streaming sites, but PIA is better for torrenting. NordVPN is easier to use, but PIA is cheaper.

For a full breakdown of how the two match up, take a look at our in-depth comparison of NordVPN vs Private Internet Access.

Is Private Internet Access Free?

Private Internet Access is a premium VPN and it has no free version.

That said, PIA is the top-rated cheap VPN. On its longest-term subscription it provides almost unbeatable value at the equivalent of just $2.03 per month.

If you want a high-quality free VPN we fully recommend Proton VPN Free and Windscribe Free.
