As many as you like. Avira Phantom VPN is one of the very few available solutions that does not restrict the amount of devices you can use on the same account. That goes for the free version too!

Avira Phantom VPN enables you to mask your devices’ true IP address by rerouting you via our servers. You are provided with a substitute IP address, which can be in any of our expanding network of countries (currently 33). This substitute IP address cannot directly be linked back to you, enabling you to browse anonymously.

If you love to travel you most likely know the following scenario: You are in a hotel room and want to watch the latest TV show in your own language – but the page you are normally going to for streaming re-runs or the local news displays a “Not accessible via this country” sign. They are geo-locked.

Avira Phantom VPN can help with that: by giving you an IP address from another country, you can fool the website into thinking you are somewhere else, thereby by-passing restricted content.

Let Avira start by saying that Avira do not track:

• The websites you visit
• The virtual locations (IP addresses) you used while surfing
• Your real IP address
• Any information that can link you to any action, such as downloading a file, or visiting a particular website

What Avira do track:

• Diagnostic data, which helps Avira improve the product (e.g. if bugs were encountered). The tracking of this data is entirely optional: you can easily switch it off from within the product interface.
• Whether you are a free or a paid user. It’s important for our communications to be able to differentiate the two.
• The amount of data that you consume. Avira do this to help calculate the costs of providing our VPN infrastructure – free of charge.

Yes. YouTube’s LetsPlay video series is a great way of watching game playthroughs. However, due to music licensing restrictions and the indexing of certain games in only a few countries, many videos get blocked.

Phantom VPN can help: by offering you a choice of 20 server locations, including the US, Singapore, Japan, or Hong Kong, you can connect to YouTube via the virtual location of your choice and access any LetsPlay video.

Avira Phantom VPN policy is as follows: Avira cannot share what Avira do not know. Avira must legally comply with the legislation of countries in which Avira operate. So Avira make sure that if authorities do come knocking on our door, Avira have no sensitive information to share, notably what our customers use the VPN for or what websites they visited.

Depending on the legislation in which our servers are based, it is possible that meta data, compiled at a national level, might be stored by server providers. As myriads of individuals connect simultaneously from the same country, this data is not associated with or traced back to individual users.

Yes. Avira measure the volume of traffic consumed (capped at 1 GB for registered users), but Avira do not track what you use your allocated bandwidth for.

Think of it as a secure piping service: Avira offer the infrastructure (in this case, the “VPN tunnels”), but you are free to decide what you use it for (watch movies, shop, download music...) Avira do not know what you put in the pipes, only how much volume flows through them, which is how Avira calculate our costs for hosting the infrastructure.

Like with any VPN, it’s possible that your speed will decline slightly but Avira are confident you will not notice any deterioration in your internet’s speed. In certain cases, if your ISP actually throttles your traffic, it’s possible that Avira Phantom VPN will actually boost your speed.

Yes. Avira Phantom VPN runs on our own secure, private servers.
