How we compare free VPNs
Primary sources only
Reviews link each key fact to the provider’s website, policy, app-store listing or audit report, with the date we read it.
Gaps reported, not hidden
When a provider’s claim conflicts with its own policy, terms or app-store label, we say so and link both.
Dated and rechecked
Free VPN terms change often. Every review shows when it was last checked, so you know how current it is.
What to check before you pick a free VPN
- Is it a free plan, or only a free trial that ends?
- How much data does the free tier allow, and does it reset daily or monthly?
- Can you choose a country, or are free servers assigned at random?
- Does the free tier show ads — and what does the app’s privacy label say it collects?
- Who runs it, and which country’s law does it answer to?
- Is a no-logs claim backed by a named, independent audit?
