ProtonVPN does not currently support remote port forwarding, which may impact some applications. Especially Peer-to-Peer applications like Torrent clients.
-{% include legacy/badge.html color="info" text="Extra Functionality" %}
+{% include badge.html color="info" text="Extra Functionality" %}
The ProtonVPN clients have a built-in killswitch to block internet connections outside of the VPN. They also are able to automatically start on boot. ProtonVPN also offers "Tor" servers allowing you to easily connect to onion sites, but we still strongly recommend using the official Tor Browser for this purpose.

IVPN.net is another premium VPN provider, and they have been in operation since 2009. IVPN is based in Gibraltar and offers a 3 day free trial.

+{% include badge.html color="success" text="32 Countries" %}
IVPN has servers in 32 countries at the time of writing this page. Picking a VPN provider with a server nearest to you will reduce latency of the network traffic you send. This is because of a shorter route (less hops) to the destination.
We also think it's better for the security of the VPN provider's private keys if they use dedicated servers, instead of cheaper shared solutions (with other customers) such as virtual private servers.
-{% include legacy/badge.html color="success" text="Independently Audited" %}

IVPN has undergone a no-logging audit from Cure53 which concluded in agreement with IVPN's no-logging claim. IVPN has also completed a comprehensive pentest report Cure53 in January 2020. IVPN has also said they plan to have annual reports in the future.

- -We are providing these services because we believe in decentralized and federated networks, and free and open source software. The tools we host are a great and convenient entry-point to these services like Matrix, Mastodon, and WriteFreely. We hope that we are able to spur the adoption of these alternative networks, and we strongly believe all of our services are far better than traditional providers, such as Twitter, Facebook, and Google.
-However, as with any hosted, online service, remember that using our services involves risks that may or may not be acceptable to you. Using online services requires trust in the service provider. We don't know of any surefire way to evaluate a provider for privacy, or provide a service that we can guarantee is operating in a privacy-respecting way. Of course we strive to provide the best services possible for our community, but at the end of the day this involves you trusting us and the system administrators that host our services.
-As always, never trust a service provider with sensitive information, even if they are trustworthy.
-We also recommend you don't centralize all your online activity around a single provider's services (such as ours). This is because it is not a good idea to give a single party control over everything you do online.
-We highly recommend hosting your own services whenever possible. Not only is it a fantastic learning experience, but it allows you to have services entirely in your control. There are a number of great resources available, including...

We will not provide...
-We pride ourselves on our integrity and commitment to spreading unbiased and fact-based information regarding privacy and privacy-respecting tools. All tools we recommend throughout our website are subject to strict criteria as judged by our team and the community across our various platforms. Your sponsorship will not grant your organization any special consideration when choosing our recommendations throughout the website, a process which we make clear via our transparent ledger on OpenCollective and our public discussions on GitHub. Your sponsorship benefits are limited to those outlined above.
-Tax and Financial Information
-Your contribution to Privacy Guides will be handled by the Open Collective Foundation 501(c)(3). For US companies and taxpayers, this means your contribution is likely tax deductible, but you should consult with your accountant regarding your specific circumstances. As a non-profit, your sponsorship contribution will not be used for private profit and will only be used to cover expenses incurred by the project. All of our transactions (donations and expenses) are published transparently on OpenCollective. For the benefit of our readership, anonymous contributions will not be eligible for the sponsorship opportunities outlined above.
