Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how VPN Expert (“we,” “us,” or “our”), operating the website at vpnexprt.org, collects, uses, and protects information when you visit the site. We have written it in plain language so you can understand what happens to your data. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.

Last updated: June 2026.

Who we are

VPN Expert is an independent website that publishes reviews, comparisons, and guides about virtual private network (VPN) services. Our website address is https://vpnexprt.org. We are a content and affiliate website; we do not sell VPN services ourselves. For questions about this policy or your data, contact us at daniellevy4849@gmail.com.

Information we collect

We collect a limited amount of information, in the following ways.

Information you provide directly. If you contact us by email or submit a form, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your name, email address, and the contents of your message. If commenting is enabled and you leave a comment, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user-agent string to help with spam detection.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our servers and analytics tools automatically record certain technical information when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, the pages you view, and the date and time of your visit. This data helps us understand how the site is used and keep it secure.

Cookies and similar technologies. We and our service providers use cookies and similar technologies to operate the site, remember your preferences, measure traffic, and track referrals to the VPN providers we link to. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not function as intended if you do.

Affiliate links

VPN Expert participates in affiliate programs. When you click a link to a VPN provider and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. To make this work, affiliate links use cookies or tracking parameters that let the provider attribute the referral to us. These cookies may record that you visited our site and clicked a particular link. We do not receive your payment details or account information from the providers. For a full explanation of how this works, see our Affiliate Disclosure.

Analytics and advertising

We use third-party analytics services to understand how visitors use the site. These services may set their own cookies and collect information such as your IP address and browsing behavior on our site, in accordance with their own privacy policies. Where we use such services, we configure them to limit the data collected wherever practical. We do not run third-party display advertising that profiles you across other websites; if this changes, this policy will be updated to reflect it.

How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Operate, maintain, and improve the website and its content.
  • Respond to your messages and inquiries.
  • Measure site traffic and understand which content is useful.
  • Track affiliate referrals so that commissions are correctly attributed.
  • Detect, prevent, and address spam, abuse, security issues, and technical problems.
  • Comply with legal obligations.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only in these limited circumstances: with service providers who help us operate the site (such as hosting and analytics providers) under appropriate confidentiality obligations; with affiliate networks and VPN providers to the extent necessary to attribute referrals, as described above; and when required by law, legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of VPN Expert, our visitors, or others.

Third-party links

The site contains links to third-party websites, including VPN providers. Once you leave our site, this Privacy Policy no longer applies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those websites, and we encourage you to read their privacy policies before providing any personal information.

Data retention

We keep personal information only for as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. Analytics data is retained according to the settings of our analytics provider. Comments and their metadata, where applicable, may be retained so that follow-up comments can be recognized automatically. You can request deletion of your data as described below.

Your rights in the European Economic Area and United Kingdom

If you are located in the EEA or the UK, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) gives you rights over your personal data. These include the right to access the data we hold about you, to request correction or erasure, to restrict or object to processing, and to data portability. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time. Our legal bases for processing are your consent (for example, for non-essential cookies), our legitimate interests in operating and improving the site, and compliance with legal obligations. To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@vpnexprt.org. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Your rights in California

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the CPRA, gives you the right to know what personal information we collect and how we use it, the right to request deletion of your personal information, the right to correct inaccurate information, and the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights. To make a request, contact us at privacy@vpnexprt.org.

International data transfers

VPN Expert is operated from, and uses service providers in, various countries. If you access the site from outside those countries, your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in a country with different data protection laws than your own. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for such transfers.

Children’s privacy

This site is intended for adults and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we hold against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, however, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “last updated” date at the top of this page. Significant changes will be made clear on this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
