What Is a No-Log Policy?
A no-log (or zero-log) policy is a VPN provider's commitment to not recording any data about user activity. This includes connection timestamps, session duration, IP addresses, bandwidth usage, DNS queries, and browsing history. A true no-log policy means there is no user data to hand over even if servers are seized.
Not all "no-log" claims are equal. Some providers claim no-log policies while recording connection metadata. A genuine no-log provider records nothing beyond what is needed for real-time connection management.
Why No-Log Matters
Without a no-log policy, your VPN provider becomes another surveillance point — replacing your ISP. Logs can be subpoenaed by law enforcement, stolen in breaches, or sold to third parties. Several VPN providers with claimed no-log policies have been caught providing user data to authorities.
