Confirmed VPN is the world's first Openly Operated VPN, bulletproofing your browsing and data against public hotspots, snoopers, and even your ISP. Since VPNs are responsible for receiving and encrypting all your internet traffic, it's critical that you can trust your VPN. Don't settle for any VPN that can't *prove* their Privacy Policy and security claims— Confirmed VPN is Openly Operated, which means that the entire service is fully transparent and everyone can verify its Privacy Policy. Openly Operated apps are completely open source, open infrastructure, and have comprehensive independent third party audits. Learn more about the Openly Operated certification, and read Confirmed VPN's full audits at http://openlyoperated.org/reports/confirmedvpn Confirmed is on a mission to make every app and service fully prove their privacy and security claims, rather than having users put blind trust in outright dishonest (or copy-pasted) Privacy Policies. We're starting by bringing transparency to the notoriously sketchy space of VPNs, and we hope we can inspire other developers to also build Openly Operated apps and transform every app and service for the better.
