Why a VPN matters when travelling

Hotel, airport and café networks are shared with strangers. A VPN encrypts traffic between your device and the VPN server, so other people on the same network can't read it. It does not make you anonymous and does not replace sensible habits such as keeping apps updated.

What NordVPN includes

NordVPN states that one account covers up to 10 devices at once, and that its Kill Switch cuts your internet if the VPN connection drops, so traffic is not sent unprotected. It also lists Meshnet, for reaching your own devices remotely, and publishes a no-logs policy.

Refunds

All plans include a 30-day money-back guarantee according to NordVPN's pricing page. Read the linked refund policy for how to request it.
