When you connect to a VPN, your internet traffic is routed through a secure server operated by the VPN provider. This process:
- Encrypts your data: Making it unreadable to hackers, ISPs, and government agencies.
- Hides your IP address: Replacing it with the VPN server’s IP, making it harder to track your online activities.
- Bypasses geo-restrictions: Allowing you to access content that may be restricted in your region.
