We operate on a " freemium" model, and do not sell any private data because: a) we do not have the data to sell (take a look at our privacy policy here and our information request record here) and b) we don't believe in that kind of business model.

It turns out that of the VPNs listed above, only Windscribe and Proton actually have a free offering, so my job just got a whole lot easier!īefore we get into it, I want to touch on something I've said before myself: "if something is free, you are the product." I stand by this as a general rule, but Windscribe is one of the rare places where that is 100% NOT the case. After conferring with the team, we reviewed the following VPNs to see what's on offer for free: ExpressVPN, IVPN, Mullvad, Nord and ProtonVPN.

I started this article with an open heart and mind, and the intention of doing a fair comparison of our Free VPN offering and that of our competitors.
