Frequently asked questions

You should use a VPN when using streaming services, connecting to public Wi-Fi, and traveling to countries that block your favorite social media networks — basically all the time. 

A VPN protects you by:

  1. Encrypting your data: a VPN connection makes data traveling between your device and the VPN server unreadable to snoopers and ISPs. 
  2. Hiding your actual IP address: when you’re connected to a VPN server, the internet believes the server’s IP is your IP.

With a VPN, you can watch anything you want — sports streams, movies, TV shows, and YouTube — provided that you abide by the service’s Terms and Conditions. 

With a VPN on your phone, you can:

  1. Stay safe on public Wi-Fi — especially useful for travelers at airports and anyone frequenting cafes. VPN encrypts your data, so it becomes useless to anyone who may steal it. 
  2. Maintain access to your social media when traveling — some countries block access to social media sites. With a secure VPN connection, you can access them without any issues.
