When you open any website directly, there is easy way to detect your real IP address and, consequently, your location. So, your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and site owners know where you are from and who you are. But, as opposed to this, when you open website while being connected to Trust.Zone there is no way to detect your real IP, but only IP of one of our servers. This way nobody knows who you are and what your location is. Your ISP can't track your moves. You are able to browse the Internet securely and anonymously.
All data between you and Trust.Zone servers are encrypted, so nobody can track your traffic and online activity between you and our servers, even your ISP.
Trust.Zone is service which gives you access to our VPN network (VPN is Virtual Private Network or `Network over Internet`). All transferred data are encrypted, so there is no way to define what kind of data is transferring. Transferred data packets are useless for `listeners` because packets are encrypted.
If you are under Windows OS, the best way to connect to Trust.Zone is to use our client app. You can download it from Trust.Zone Download page for free!
If you are under Linux, Mac OSX, iOS, Android, any other OS, or if you want to setup Trust.Zone connection in your Router, we did a special Wizard Page for you in order to make configuration process easy and straight forward.
In case you are not able to log in to your Trust.Zone account you can reset your password by using the following page: https://trustedzone.info/password.
After submitting your current Trust.Zone email address (which you're using to log in to Trust.Zone website) message with reset link will be sent to this email. After clicking on reset link in the message you will be able to set your new password.
Web Proxy and VPN connect through an anonymous IP address. VPN encrypts your entire internet connection meanwhile proxy encrypts a single protocol. VPN encrypts and routs all of your traffic through the VPN server, including all software and applications. The full list of differences between Proxy and VPN available here.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) connects two computers safely, securely and privately over the internet, even though that is a public network. VPN creates a tunneling. It's some kind of secure and encrypted tunnel in the internet through which the data is to be sent and received. VPN hides your IP address and replaces your IP address by IP address of VPN server. With a VPN your ISP won't be able to see what you're doing and visiting.
No, you still need your existing internet connection (DSL, cable, 3G or etc.) to be able to use the Trust.Zone VPN.
Yes, with Trust.Zone VPN service you are able to use it from as many different devices and computers as you want. You must not exceed 3 (or 5) simultaneous connections depending on your subscription plan. In other words, only 3 (or 5) devices can be connected to Trust.Zone VPN service at the same time.
Yes, every new customer will be given 3 days free access to Trust.Zone VPN. It allows a connection to many Trust.Zone VPN server locations, 1GB data transfer and unlimited data bandwidth. See more details here.
We do not have any bandwidth limits. Trust.Zone provides customers with unlimited data transfer and unlimited bandwidth.
Trust.Zone VPN service doesn't block or throttle any kind of internet traffic. All kinds of internet traffic are allowed.
You don't need a powerful PC to install a Trust.Zone VPN. Trust.Zone VPN tool has minimal space and memory requirements. A normal PC with an existing internet connection (DSL, cable, 3G or etc.) is quite enough. Trust.Zone VPN supports all major OS platforms and devices - Windows, iOS, Android, Linux, Windows Mobile, Mac and other.
To install Trust.Zone VPN client you can require administrator privileges.
Yes, you may notice slowing down of your internet connection because all your data additionally flows through one more server (Trust.Zone VPN Server) and is encrypting which also take some time. You may also notice slowing down in case VPN server you trying to connect is too far away from your current location or it is overloaded. In this case we recommend you trying several VPN zones around you starting from ones which are closer to you.
The speed with your ISP provides will also affect the speed of a VPN connection. In case of normal internet connection (Cable, DSL, 3G) the VPN speed won't be much affected. Dial-up or unstable 3G connections can cause VPN connectivity issues. However, if you are in Canada and connect to a VPN server in China you may notice significant reduction in your internet speed. In most cases, the closer you are to the VPN server, the faster your internet connection will be.
In case your connection speed getting slower after you get connected to Trust.Zone VPN, please check what zone you're currently using.
We recommend you trying several VPN zones around you starting from ones which are closer to you. E.g. if you're in Australia, please connect to au.trust.zone. In case you're in west of United States, please connect to us-west.trust.zone and so on.
Each zone may contain several servers in it. Sometimes same zone can give you different connection speeds. This happens because you're getting connected to different servers from same zone. You can check what exact server you're connecting by opening our Connection Check Page. In case you want to connect to different server in same zone, you need to reconnect to same zone again.
Yes, it is. When used for legal purposes, VPN is legal in most countries.
Your ISP will only see a secured encrypted connection to one of Trust.Zone VPN servers. Your traffic is encrypted and can't be recognized by your ISP. This means all your ISP can see how much traffic you use, but not what you are using it for.
Trust.Zone VPN doesn't track your online activity except amount of data transferred by user. We do not track what exact data is transferred, but only how much data is transferred. We need this info in order to determine which server gives user best connection speed. We also need this info in order to limit our "Free test" subscription which is limited with 1GB of bandwidth usage. Moreover, we do not store logs of your online activity.

Trust.Zone VPN Client is requesting Trust.Zone DNS server in order to receive IP address of the best server for every user. This is a safe operation, but some firewalls, antivirus and anti-malware software may block the requests. The solution is to add Trust.Zone VPN Client into exceptions/exclusions list to your firewall, antivirus and anti-malware software. This way Client DNS queries will not be blocked and error will disappear.
Please read how to add Trust.Zone into exceptions/exclusions list into your firewall, antivirus or anti-malware software in the following FAQ item: Antiviruses and Trust.Zone: How to add Trust.Zone VPN Client for Windows into exceptions/exclusions list in your firewalls, antivirus or anti-malware software?

Some email providers (such as GMail, Outlook, etc) may block access to their services when customer's IP address changes to IP address of another country too quickly. For example, when you usually access your email from UK and suddenly you are trying to access it from US (while being connected to US VPN server) your email provider 'thinks' that somebody from US is trying to hack your email and blocks access to your email box.
To unlock access to your email while using VPN server from a different country you need to open your email inbox in web browser and pass verification. After verification you should be able to send/receive emails with your email client.
If you're using Gmail you may need to open following page https://accounts.google.com/DisplayUnlockCaptcha and click "Continue" while being connected to Trust.Zone VPN to restore access to your Gmail mailbox.
Yet, in some cases, this wouldn't help because some VPN servers have blocked outgoing email ports due to SPAM complaints from server providers. In this case you can still send E-Mail messages from your webmail (when you access your E-Mail account from browser).
No need. Just restart the application. Click on "Exit" icon, close the application and then run it again!
In case you've put wrong email address during registration or payment and haven't confirmed it yet, you can change it on your Profile Page.
Just open your Profile Page, replace your wrong email address with correct one, enter your current password to "Current Password" field and click "SAVE GENERAL SETTINGS" button.
Shortly confirmation message will be sent to your new email inbox. Please open it and click confirmation link to confirm your new email address.
Please note: You will unable to change your new email address after you've confirmed it.
When you connect to a new server in the same VPN zone (for example, us.trust.zone) Windows creates a new network between you and that server. One network per each server in VPN zone.
After you have connected to every server in the zone at least once, windows stops creating new networks.
This happens due to obsolete GEO IP database on some websites. You can check your current location on Connection Check Page.
