Why use a VPN?
Hide your real IP address and prevent websites, advertisers, and your ISP from tracking what you do online.
Bank-grade AES-256 encryption wraps every byte you send so third parties see nothing – especially important on public Wi-Fi.
Connect through global servers to reach websites and streaming services that may be restricted in your region.

Private by design – your data is never for sale
Avira operates a strict no-logs policy. We never record your browsing history, DNS queries or connection times. What you do online is your business alone.
Avira has protected users for more than 35 years. That experience underpins every decision in Phantom VPN – from the encryption algorithms we chose to the servers we operate.
Our VPN uses AES-256 encryption, the same standard trusted by financial institutions and government agencies around the world. Your traffic is indecipherable to anyone watching.
Because we do not store logs, there is nothing to hand over. No browsing records, no IP address history, no connection timestamps – total privacy by architecture.
