Your IP address is protected when you use a VPN since your traffic is routed through the VPN server. When your traffic reaches its destination — websites accessed, online apps launched, uploads, downloads, and so on — it does so using a "virtual" IP address provided by the VPN.

Your VPN provider will be the only one who can see your actual IP address. That is why you should choose VPN Unlimited,  we do not store logs of your activities.

KeepSolid is committed to protecting your online privacy. Because our team has never heard of any other policy than a zero-log policy, we can confidently state that VPN Unlimited does not maintain logs of your online activities. We never link your online activity to your account, email, device, or IP address thanks to our no-logs VPN policy.

We do not log the following information that transfers the network during your VPN session to ensure that no unauthorized parties or cybercriminals have access to your sensitive data:

  • History of browsing
  • Time to connect
  • Metadata
  • Downloads
  • Server utilization
  • Data content
