Mozilla VPN is a virtual private network service that protects your online privacy and security by masking your IP address, hiding your location data, and encrypting your network activity.

How does Mozilla VPN protect me?

Mozilla VPN creates an encrypted tunnel between your device and our secure servers, letting you use the server's IP address and location to mask your identity. That will throw off data collectors who profile you based on your location and help protect the privacy of your online activity. With Mozilla VPN, you can choose from servers in 30+ countries and register up to five devices using your Mozilla account.
