What Makes TunnelBear a VPN You Can Rely On?

Trust is something TunnelBear works hard to earn. Plenty of VPN providers ask you to simply believe their promises, but TunnelBear has an independent security audit carried out every year by Cure53, a well-known cybersecurity firm, and puts each full report online for anyone to read. In an industry where secrecy is common, that openness is a real point of difference.

Each year TunnelBear also issues a Transparency Report that lists how many government requests reached the company and what it did about them. So far, no user data has ever been handed to a government or any other third party, since there is no browsing data to give. Because of the strict no-logging policy, TunnelBear would have nothing to show about your online activity even under a legal order.

The company belongs to Gen Digital (formerly McAfee), a cybersecurity business listed on the stock market. Being part of a public company puts TunnelBear under tighter corporate accountability than faceless, anonymous VPN providers. Yearly Cure53 audits, published transparency reports and oversight from a larger organization together give users a firm basis for trusting the service.
