VPNy

VPNy is a commercial virtual private network service designed to protect online privacy and to enable access to region-restricted content. It operates by routing a user’s internet traffic through its own servers and concealing the user’s IP address while encrypting data in transit.

VPNy supports multiple tunneling protocols, including OpenVPN and WireGuard, and employs strong encryption, typically AES-256, with options for both UDP and TCP transport.

Key features include a kill switch, DNS leak protection, split tunneling, and automatic reconnect. Some plans offer obfuscated servers to help users in restrictive networks.

VPNy operates a worldwide server network across North America, Europe, Asia, and Oceania, prioritizing performance and reliability. The provider does not publish exact server counts, focusing on speed and regional coverage.

Privacy and data handling: VPNy states a no-logs policy for traffic and session data and maintains minimal connection metadata for operational purposes. It publishes a privacy policy and transparency reports, with independent audits not widely disclosed.

Platforms and apps: native clients are provided for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android, along with browser extensions for common browsers and manual configuration options for OpenVPN or WireGuard on compatible devices.

Reception and limitations: VPNy offers standard VPN functionality with broad geographic coverage. As with other services, it cannot guarantee complete anonymity, and performance depends on server load, distance, and protocol choice, while some streaming services may block access.
