how's it going guys welcome back and today we're going to be taking a look
at the expressvpn privacy policy of course the privacy policy is very important when it
comes to vpns it is really just one of the main determining factors of whether or not customers
will actually make the final decision to purchase the vpn or not so before we get if you guys are
interested in expressvpn you'll find links to special deals and discounts in the description
down below as well as a full-on review that'll give you more of an in-depth look into the
privacy policy speed streaming torrenting capabilities as well security and features
so let's get straight into it um i want to kind of take a look at the privacy policy and some of the
uh well evidence that we have that they do stick true to their uh privacy policy so in
this first part here they do claim that they do not collect logs of your activity including no
logging in browsing history traffic destination data content or dns queries we also never store
connection logs meaning no logs of your ip address your outgoing vpn ip address
connection timestamps or session duration so a fair question would be how would you know that
they're actually staying true to this statement and the difference between expressvpn and other
vpns is that most other vpns just make this claim regardless whether or not they have evidence
in this case of course we do have evidence which comes in the form of independent audit reports
ones ones examining the no lock policy and privacy policy and other ones examining the security of
the network and if there are any faults within the network you know when it comes to the privacy
policy and their no locks policy expressvpn are very well known at this point how much
express value both and that could not have been demonstrated any better in the real life situation
where the turkish government seized an express vpn uh server as part of an investigation but
were not able to extract any information out of the servers by virtue of express not having stored
any information on their servers in the first place thanks to their servers running on ram disks
rather than physical hard drives which means there are simply no physical drives for information to
be stored in and any minimal information stored by ram is erased with every machine reboot now i
would mention that expressvpn being based in the british virgin islands also helps since they're
not under the 5 9 or 14 ice jurisdiction but at the end of the day the british virgin islands
is a territory of the uk a country that's not exactly known for its positive attitudes towards
internet privacy but regardless i don't think jurisdictions make that much of a difference since
it's really about whether or not the provider collects the information and in expressvpn's
case it won't matter where they're based due to their miniscule amount of collected data anyways
and when it comes to high profile cases you know most providers will do their best to cooperate
with governments to the best of their abilities regardless of their privacy policy so you should
definitely keep that in mind and to add to that express also had multiple independent audits as
i mentioned before and uh they were examined by companies like pricewaterhousecoopers and i think
cure53 as well but price water house coopers are veterans in the industry and they know exactly
what they're doing so they've definitely verified their privacy policy claims and the audits were
able to pinpoint any potential flaws within the network in order to get them fixed right away
now as far as audits in 2021 they do have plans for that but no announcements have been made yet
but that could still happen within the second half of the year so hopefully you will be seeing
an announcement very soon so in terms of express's privacy policy and the integrity of their no
logs claims express is one of the leading vpns independent audits and the turkish investigation
really just solidifies their claims and reassures me that my data is indeed in good hands so when
it comes to privacy policy i think we can safely say that we're leaving our data in good hands uh
so definitely if i were to grade let's say expressvpn's privacy policy i think it can
safely get an a plus uh definitely one of the best privacy policies out there very transparent so you
know you can definitely take a look at it yourself uh oh it's all in detail here laid out with all
the links that you need if you'd like to examine the evidence regarding the uh privacy policy audit
reports so definitely check that out if you're interested i'll leave the link in the description
