Why use Windscribe?

Stop tracking and browse privately

Governments block content based on your location. Corporations track and sell your personal data. Get Windscribe and take back control of your privacy.

Take your browsing history to your grave

Protect your browsing history from your network administrator, ISP, or your mom. We don't keep any logs, so your private data stays with you.

Unblock geo-restricted content

Windscribe masks your IP address. This gives you unrestricted and private access to entertainment, news sites, and blocked content in over 45 different countries

Stop leaking personal information

Prevent hackers from stealing your data while you use public WIFI and block annoying advertisers from stalking you online.

Go beyond basic VPN protection

For comprehensive privacy protection, use our desktop and browser combo (they're both free).
