But with decent speeds, Netflix unblocking and no registration required, the free version could be worth a look for simple tasks.Based in Canada, Betternet is a free VPN service provider that has gained wide popularity among VPN users and has now grown to serve 38 million netizens. Touch VPN is a jumbled mess of a service with a feeble website and largely underpowered apps, and its overpriced commercial plans don't deserve your time. We've seen faster, but not from a free service, and overall Touch VPN performed very well. We might get 5-6Mbps extra from the best of the competition, but that's still decent performance for a free service.Ĭould there be more? We switched to a European location capable of 300-400Mbps, and speeds lifted a little to 90-95Mbps. But it rescued the situation at the end by getting us access to US Netflix even paid VPNs can't always do that.ĭownload speeds were very acceptable at an average 60-62Mbps on our test 75Mbps connection. Not so well, we thought, when Touch VPN failed with BBC iPlayer.

Touch VPN logs the domains accessed by its users, too, but only the domains, not the full URLs, and the data is anonymized to ensure the company can't associate any domain access to a particular user, time or session. The system does record your IP address when you connect, but this is hashed, and deleted at the end of the session. The company explains that it 'does not inspect or record the contents of what you are browsing, viewing, or doing through them.' The policy explains that it 'does not record your VPN browsing activities in any way that can be associated back to you.' That is, 'When you use a VPN connection, we do not store any information that identifies what you browse, view, or do online via that VPN connection.' The Touch VPN website is so short on detail that we weren't expecting much at all from the privacy policy, but we needn't have worried the company uses the same document as the various other VPNs in the group (Hotspot Shield, Betternet, Hexatech, VPN360, and VPN in Touch.)
