Private browsing, whatever you're into

Incognito forgets your history on your phone. It doesn't stop your router, your internet provider or the office network from keeping their own list of every site you open. PryVPN does.

Incognito vs. PryVPN: who can still see what

Incognito and a VPN protect different things. Used together, they close both gaps.

The part nobody mentions

Your router keeps a list. Your provider keeps a longer one.

Home routers can record which sites each device looks up, and anyone with the router's admin password can often see that list. Your internet provider sees the same lookups for every device in the house, and may keep them.

With PryVPN, both of them see just one thing: an encrypted connection to a PryVPN server. The sites stay between you and the site.

Discreet by design

Privacy isn't only about the network. It's also about what we keep and what the app shows.

No activity logs

We never record the sites you visit, your DNS lookups or the content of your traffic.

No name, no email

Your account is an anonymous number. There's nothing that ties your browsing to you.

Private DNS

Lookups are answered by our own resolvers inside the tunnel, with no query logs.

Quiet notifications

The app's notification shows only that you're protected. Never a site, never a history.

What a VPN can't do

A VPN won't stop a site you sign into from knowing it's you, and it won't clear your phone's history. For full privacy, use PryVPN together with your browser's private mode.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Something else?Write to support@pryvpn.com. A person replies, usually within a day.
Can my Wi-Fi owner see what sites I visit?

Without a VPN, usually yes: they can see the names of the sites your device looks up. With PryVPN, they only see that you're connected to a VPN server.

Does incognito mode hide my history from my internet provider?

No. Incognito only stops your browser from saving history on your device. Your provider and your network still see the sites you open. A VPN hides them.

Can someone see my browsing on the home router?

Many routers keep a list of the sites each device looks up, visible to whoever manages the router. With PryVPN on, that list only shows encrypted traffic to a PryVPN server.

Does PryVPN keep a history of the sites I visit?

Never. We don't log the sites you visit, your DNS queries or your traffic. See the complete list of what we store on our no-logs page.

Can websites still tell who I am?

Websites see a PryVPN server's IP instead of yours, so they can't locate you by it. If you sign in, they still know it's your account, and browsers can be fingerprinted in other ways.
