Transparency Is In Our Nature
“The only way to secure your data is not to store it.”
Robert Knapp, Co-founder & Chairman, CyberGhost VPN
CyberGhost VPN’s Transparency Reports
Transparency Reports are a tradition we hold dear. Back in 2011, we were the first in the VPN industry ever to launch a report, where we detailed the number of data requests we receive from various legal authorities and copyright holders.
Since then, we’ve shared this information with you yearly. In 2019, we decided to put a twist to it, and increase the publishing frequency. Now we’re publishing our Transparency Reports every quarter on Privacy Hub.
We’re Committed to Our No Logs Policy
We consistently receive requests for user data, but we don’t have anything to share. As part of our mission to protect digital privacy, we keep absolutely no logs and don’t collaborate with any authorities.
We have a strict No Logs policy in place, which means we never collect or store any activity on our servers. We even underwent an independent audit where a Big Four global firm, Deloitte, inspected our VPN server network and management systems, and found our configurations match our privacy policy.

See All Our Legal Requests
We group all requests we receive into 3 main categories: (1) DMCA complaints, (2) malware activity flags, and (3) police requests. This makes it easier to interpret and visualize.
All types of requests ask for some form of user data including IP address, DNS requests, activity logs, and any other personally identifiable data.
