You should already have an idea of what a VPN does. If you’re still unsure, breaking it down is no issue. Simply put, when you first connect to your internet you are connected to an Internet Service Provider (ISP) that connects you to web pages. All information carried out on your devices passes through the ISP server and this information is stored and monitored by your ISP. When using a VPN, all your data is instead passed through the VPN server and encrypted so only you and your VPN know and no one outside can access or see it.
