SkyVPN allows you to surf anonymously and protect your privacy

SkyVPN, a free VPN service, allows you to surf anonymously and hide your browsing habits. It is similar to Express VPN and NordVPN. A VPN allows you to bypass geo-restrictions such as video streaming and anonymize your browsing. It also prevents your history being tracked.

SkyVPN offers unlimited data and bandwidth, with no throttling nor slowdown. SkyVPN has over 3,000 servers worldwide, so you can connect from any part of the world and get almost the same surfing speeds without using a VPN.

What does SkyVPN do exactly?

SkyVPN is a highly customizable VPN with many advanced privacy features. Split tunnelling and specialised server are two of the many features that SkyVPN offers. These allow you to choose which websites and apps are routed through a VPN. This is especially useful for latency sensitive apps like video games.

Is SkyVPN safe?

SkyVPN boasts many privacy features, but it logs VPN traffic. SkyVPN logs every website and app visited while using it, which is contrary to its privacy features. It is therefore not recommended to be used as a secure VPN service.

A flawed, but full-featured VPN service

To protect your privacy, it is important that a VPN service does not keep logs of user activity. This will prevent you from being identified or traced. SkyVPN's log policy is very restrictive and does not allow for advanced privacy features. SkyVPN's logging policy logs your browsing activity in real-time. It also lists tracking browser cookies, information about the device being used and your actual location. It also lists applications installed on your device, as well as other details.

This is unacceptable for a privacy-oriented VPN service and SkyVPN is not recommended. SkyVPN uses vague statements like "other technical data" or "certain information". This makes it difficult to know the extent of what SkyVPN is tracking. This may be detrimental to your use of a VPN depending on your individual needs.
