IVPN
Established in Gibraltar in 2009, IVPN is one of the most respected independent VPN services in the industry. Founded by security experts to combat surveillance marketing, it pioneered the random Account ID system that eliminates the need for emails or personal data. As of 2026, IVPN is recognized for its regular independent audits, open-source apps, and its commitment to a "sovereign stack" through self-hosted infrastructure and a lack of third-party trackers.
