The policy says IPVanish uses Google's Firebase to collect crash information, 'to understand the source and cause of app crashes, and to develop & improve our Services.' What might this information include, and what happens to it? The policy doesn't say, beyond explaining that 'this data does not link back to any personal identifiable information on our VPN.'

The document goes on to explain how the company collects some data via the website, its registration and payment procedures, but there's nothing you wouldn't expect: cookies, website analytics, email address and so on. IPVanish's Privacy Policy begins with a clear and reassuring statement: 'IPVanish is a zero-logs VPN service provider, which means that we do not keep a record of any connection, traffic, or activity data in regards to our Services.' IPVanish keeps zero logs on its users (Image credit: IPVanish) Logging You can then mostly leave the VPN to turn itself on and off as required, preserving your privacy at all times. Privacy pluses elsewhere include the iOS app's ability to automatically connect when you access public Wi-Fi networks, but ignore others which you feel are safe (home, work, whatever they might be).

The Windows client offers a kill switch, DNS and even IPv6 leak protection to reduce the chance that your traffic or identity might be exposed online. The ability to choose your OpenVPN port (1194 or 443) may help you connect, while a 'Scramble OpenVPN Traffic' option reduces the chance of your VPN tunnel being detected or blocked in anti-VPN countries such as China or Iran. The IPVanish apps go further by giving you an unusual level of control over their OpenVPN setup. But by default IPVanish also supports the far more capable OpenVPN and IKEv2 protocols, with WireGuard now available too.
IPVanish still supports the old PPTP standard, which is so insecure many providers dropped it years ago.

There's a 30-day money-back guarantee, but be sure to check the small print: it's for yearly plans only. IPVanish's VPN-only plan is $53.99 for year one, $89.99 for years two and three a total of $234. Private Internet Access has a 3-year plan that costs just $2.19 a month, for instance – an upfront payment of $79. If you've no real need for web storage, though, opting for another VPN provider could cut your costs significantly.
Buy SugarSync direct from the SugarSync site and you'll pay $18.95 a month for 500GB, so opting for the IPVanish plan saves a pile of cash and gets you the VPN effectively for free. If you make regular use of SugarSync, this looks like an excellent deal. It's only fractionally more expensive, too, at $12 billed monthly, or $5.50 a month for the first year of the annual plan, $9.17 on renewal. IPVanish also offers a VPN + Backup plan with 500GB of cloud storage space from SugarSync. The annual plan looks good value at $4.50 a month, but beware, that's a special introductory deal. IPVanish pricing for its VPN service starts with monthly billing at $10.99. IPVanish offers discounts on its regular price when you sign up for a longer plan (Image credit: IPVanish) IPVanish pricing
