Russian data retention

As of July 12, VPN has IPVanish over a VPN server in the presence of Russia.

early last week, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a controversial anti-terrorism legislative package in the law of the land. Of the increase in mass surveillance powers is a new set of data retention laws, some of which are more stringent than we have seen to date.

The new data retention laws require VPN service providers such as ourselves to 1) store data on a user connects to a physical server located within the surveillance nation and 2 ) store it for a whole year. Specifically, the Russian government we (or worse) a fine for each time we refused to provide the following:

  • Personal user information (name, address (es) IP, information account)
  • user activity (data transfers, browser history, login timestamps)
  • user Content communications
  • decryption of data on request

because of unfair duties that the Russian authorities will force us to respect, we decided to promptly abandon their activities within the monitoring nation. As one of the few VPN services with an authentic political "zero-logs," we will never negotiate our values ​​for privacy for the good of many servers.

all VPN servers At July 12 , 2016 IPVanish has retired physically located in Russia, which will affect connections made in Moscow. the server lists in our applications will be updated automatically, but the devices manually connected to a Moscow server will require reconfiguration to elsewhere on our VPN server list.

We can explore adding VPN servers in new places around the nation for monitoring offset the difficulties, if any. However, it is important to remember that personal safety is more important than convenience.
