This free VPN offers powerful protection for your data and identity
TL;DR: The free version of ProtonVPN provides access to 24 servers in three countries, decent connection speeds, and a strict no-logging policy.
A lot of people fall into the trap of using free VPNs. We're not here to tell you that all free VPNs are useless. No, it's just that some free VPNs are a lot better than others.
Many free VPNs promise the world but actually limit your data usage or throttle your connection speed to the point that you can't navigate your favourite sites. That's not the case with ProtonVPN. The free version provides access to 24 servers in three countries, with decent connection speeds and a strict no-logging policy. There are also no adverts or limitations on data usage.
So where's the catch? ProtonVPN's free version is not perfect. Users are limited to a single connection, and you can't unblock leading streaming sites without upgrading. If you want worldwide streaming, additional servers, better speeds, and more simultaneous connections, you will need to upgrade to a paid plan.
A two-year subscription to the advanced version of ProtonVPN is on sale for £103.74, saving you 50% on list price. This discounted plan comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can recover your cash if you're not totally satisfied with the service. You can always go back to the free version if upgrading doesn't work out.
Secure your data and identity for free with ProtonVPN.
