    Documents VPN provider & Privacy

    With Documents, your browsing is safe. To provide you with secure and private access to information, we are using Hotspot Shield - a leading VPN provider, trusted by millions of people around the world. It is even named the fastest VPN by techradar! Hotspot Shield supports Hydra (proprietary) protocol, which is not only fast and secure (looks like regular encrypted web traffic) but is also difficult for censors to block. We love it for its superior performance and reliability.

    At Readdle, we believe privacy is a fundamental human right. That’s why we don’t track your internet activity and we don’t sell your data. We encourage you to check out a Documents Privacy Policy page to learn the detailed information of what, how, and why we collect certain data. 

    To find our Privacy Policy in the app, tap the Privacy Policy tab in a VPNsection, or open the Documents Settingsand scroll down to the bottom.
