How does ZenMate work? Is ZenMate safe?

ZenMate fully secures and encrypts all traffic on your browser (available for Google Chrome, Firefox , and Opera), desktop computer (available for Mac and OS X), and mobile devices (available for Android and iOS ).

With ZenMate you and your personal data are always protected! Read the ZenMate Manifesto for further insight in how ZenMate works to protect you.

ZenMate creates a tunnel similar to a Virtual Private Network (VPN) between your device and our server network. This impenetrable tunnel prevents snoopers, hackers, governments and ISP’s from spying on your web browsing activities, downloads, credit card information or anything else you send over the network.

Use ZenMate to protect your device at home or in a public WiFi. Your IP is hidden, your internet unrestricted and your privacy protected. We are using tested industrial grade encryption standards which we are delivering through our unique lightweight solutions, with no configuration needed at all.

Please note that the browser Extension cannot affect traffic going through other programs on your device. If you're looking for full desktop security, check out our full Desktop VPN Clients for Windows and Mac OS X!

Our Premium users have access to our full Desktop VPN Clients which offer increased functionality by working outside the browser, encrypting and securing all internet traffic such as downloads and VoIP clients.
