Encrypt.me iOS App  - Product Header Image

Encrypt.me’s relatively low pricing rating stems from its privacy policy, primarily. The VPN logs the user’s app and site usage, device type, operating system, IP address, timestamps, location data, and more. Although the VPN doesn’t log the websites visited, this is more information than necessary, and Encrypt.me shares this data with third parties for advertising purposes.
