Frequently Asked Questions
How does the anonymous web proxy work?
The web proxy is a server placed between your PC and the website you visit – the website only ever sees the proxy's IP address, never yours. If the server is located abroad, it can also help bypass geo-blocking or network restrictions, though success isn't guaranteed in every case.
What should I use the anonymous web proxy for?
Use the web proxy when you don't want to be tracked or need to bypass regional blocking. For encrypted connections across your whole device, or for streaming, we recommend a VPN such as Steganos VPN Online Shield instead.
Can I stream movies, series or TV with the web proxy?
No, the web proxy only protects a single browser tab and isn't suited to streaming. For streaming services you need a VPN such as Steganos VPN Online Shield, which secures your entire connection.
Is the connection via the web proxy encrypted?
No, the web proxy does not encrypt your connection. If you also want to stay safe and anonymous in public WLANs and hotspots, use a VPN such as Steganos VPN Online Shield instead.
