Privacy

What we record

• Page views. Cloudflare Web Analytics counts which pages are viewed, the site that referred you, and broad details such as your country and type of device. It doesn't use cookies, and it doesn't track you across other websites.
• Clicks through to VPN providers. When you follow a link to a provider, our server records which provider, which page of ours the click came from (including your choices if it came from the VPN finder), and the country the request came from. We don't record your IP address or anything else that identifies you.
• VPN finder answers. When the finder shows your results, your browser sends us the priorities and must-haves you picked and the top three results, without anything that identifies you, so we can see which questions matter to people. Your answers are also in the page address, so you can share the link.
• Emails you send us. We keep them so we can reply, and delete them if you ask.

Cookies and browser storage

We don't set cookies, with one exception. If you're outside Australia, a banner says these prices are for Australia; if you choose a country in that banner, a cookie called market remembers your choice for a year.

The same banner remembers in your browser's local storage that you dismissed it, and keeps the country it detected in session storage until you close the tab. Neither is sent to us.

Who else is involved

• Cloudflare hosts the site, so it handles the technical data needed to deliver pages, such as IP addresses, under its own privacy policy.
• VPN providers and affiliate networks. When you leave us for a provider's site, that site, and any affiliate network that tracks the referral, has its own privacy policy and may set its own cookies. See how we make money.
