What is Avira Phantom VPN?

Avira Phantom VPN is a VPN from security company Avira. It encrypts your web traffic with AES-256 and sends it through Avira servers, so your real IP address is hidden behind a virtual one. You can pick a virtual location to reach content that is blocked where you are.

The free version gives you 500 MB of data a month, plus encryption and a virtual IP address. Phantom VPN Pro removes the data limit and adds customer support. On Windows, Pro also has a kill switch that cuts your internet connection if the VPN drops. Avira says it has a strict no-logs policy and does not sell browsing data.

It fits people who want basic privacy on public Wi-Fi, travelers who need their streaming or social media accounts abroad, and anyone who wants to check prices from another country. The service is not available inside India because of local data-logging rules.
