Privacy Protection

Openshield helps reduce tracking by masking your IP and encrypting your traffic. We follow a privacy‑first logging approach to balance user safety, abuse prevention, and transparency.

Privacy‑first logging (summary)

• We do not log the contents of your encrypted VPN traffic.
• We aim to retain only what’s needed to run the service well and stop abuse.
• We provide clear explanations of categories we may collect.

What we don’t log

• No storage of the contents of your encrypted VPN packets
• No browsing content inspection

What may be logged (examples)

• Basic diagnostics (connection attempts, app version) to improve reliability
• Aggregate performance metrics to help pick fast routes
• Abuse‑prevention signals to protect the network
