The not-so-great news is there's a degree of session logging, including connection timestamps, the IP address of the server you're using, and the amount of data transmitted. The good news is that it doesn't log your full originating IP address (the last value is removed, like '212.100.56.000'), your DNS queries or anything else which could identify the websites you visit, the services and applications you use, or whatever else you might be doing online. It's gained a kill switch since our last review, too, protecting users if the VPN drops, and the clients block DNS and WebRTC leaks, too.Īvast also deserves some credit for its VPN Privacy Policy, which contains plenty of detail on what the service logs, and what it doesn't.
