How we compare

Published claim
Attribute statements and show unresolved gaps.
Our comparisons use published evidence. We do not claim independent hands-on VPN testing.
Prices have a basis.
We record the named plan, observed currency, first bill, included months, bonus months, renewal bill when explicit, source URL, and observation time. Monthly equivalents divide the upfront bill by the included months. We show introductory subscriptions and their different renewal schedules separately.
Freshness stays visible.
Prices are observations, not live quotes. We mark observations seven or more days old as needing refresh. Collection failures preserve previous prices and dates. Missing values remain unknown. Builds run offline and do not refresh sources.
Features belong to an exact plan.
Connection limits and other facts come from linked provider pages. Features and refund eligibility can vary by platform, payment method, and subscription tier. Provider profiles are source-based summaries; we have not performed hands-on speed, leak, or streaming tests.
Reviews keep their identity.
Review cards identify the publisher and preserve original rating scales and source metadata. Collection records titles, publisher dates, and explicit structured editorial ratings where available. We do not copy full reviews or mix customer ratings with editorial verdicts. The provisional editorial metascore summarizes eligible overall service verdicts on a 0–100 scale, with one equal share per publisher family and at least two contributing families. It is not a score for a specific plan or a security test; its versioned method, exclusions and source ranges are published.
Review sources and publisher families · Published speed evidence · Editorial metascore method. Manually curated scores retain their category and paid-service scope; automated refresh skips them until a source-specific parser is available.
Jurisdiction needs context.
Our privacy-intelligence dossier classifies the declared service operator’s country against published Five, Nine and Fourteen Eyes sets. The groups are nested; countries, not VPN companies, are members. Ownership, UK territory relationships and infrastructure locations stay separate. Provider policy statements are attributed, unknowns stay unknown, and no safety score is inferred. Read the dossiers and sources.
No commission-based order.
The default directory order is alphabetical. Price sorting requires a single currency. The commercial directory and shortlist include services with available paid affiliate programs. Inclusion is a commercial coverage decision, not a security rating. Our first version has no paid placements.
