What is a VPN?

A VPN, or Virtual Private Network, is a service that encrypts your internet connection and hides your IP address in order to protect your online activity from being tracked and monitored. It creates a secure, encrypted connection between your device and the VPN server, which can be located in another country. This allows you to access websites and content that may be restricted in your region, and it also helps to protect your privacy by hiding your internet activity from your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and other third parties. VPNs are commonly used to protect personal data when using public Wi-Fi, and to bypass internet censorship.
