We set no cookies.
What you do in the browser
For the site to work, a few preferences are stored locally on your device (in the browser's localStorage and sessionStorage):
- The choices you make when comparing
- Whether you picked dark or light theme
- High score in the "Glenn vs. Big Brother" game
It stays there until you clear it yourself. It is never sent to us or anyone else. You can clear it at any time via your browser settings.
Anonymous visitor statistics
We use a tool to see how the site is being used (which pages, from which country, in which browser). The IP address is only used to estimate the country and is not stored together with the visit.
Affiliate links
Some "Visit site" buttons go through affiliate networks. If you sign up for a subscription after clicking one of those links, we get a commission from the VPN provider. It costs you nothing extra.
It does not affect the ranking. The Overall score is calculated mechanically from public data published by the provider — we cannot move a provider up for payment. Some providers (e.g. Mullvad and IVPN) have no affiliate programs at all and are ranked the same way as the others.
