VYPRVPN: A VPN COMMITTED TO ONLINE USER SECURITY, PRIVACY, AND AN OPEN INTERNET

While VyprVPN has offices in Texas, its parent company, Golden Frog, is incorporated in Switzerland. For anyone that doesn’t want their government to know what they get up to online, this is great news: Switzerland owes no allegiance to the Five, Nine, or Fourteen Eyes programs.

That said, user privacy isn’t complete. The company, like many other VPN services, retains logs on each user’s source IP address, the address ofsession. These records are kept for 30 days to help the company deal with billing issues and to address crimes (as required by Swiss law) performed while using the service. If any of this makes you uncomfortable, you’ll want to take your VPN needs elsewhere. That said, the Swiss do well to balance the issue of law enforcement and the right to online privacy. Your information, provided you’re not caught committing a crime, will be safe.
