Protect your browsing activity

Proton VPN stops your internet service provider, governments, and hackers from tracking what you do online and hides your IP address from the websites you visit.

Easy to use

Open the Proton VPN app and click Quick Connect to automatically connect to the fastest available server.

Strong protocols

We use only strong, secure VPN protocols: OpenVPN, IKEv2, WireGuard®, and our own Stealth, which helps you beat internet censorship.

Kill Switch

If your VPN connection is interrupted, our kill switch will block all network traffic to ensure your IP address remains safe.

Split tunneling

Split tunneling lets you decide which apps and IP addresses use the VPN.

Based in Switzerland

We’re based in Switzerland, so your data is secured by strict Swiss privacy laws.
