About OVPN
OVPN is a commercial VPN service based in Sweden. It keeps no logs, and it won a two-month court case over an information injunction because it had no user data to hand over. The company carries insurance that covers legal fees and publishes monthly transparency reports.
All servers are bare-metal machines owned by OVPN rather than rented or virtual. They run without hard drives, with the operating system held only in RAM. Extra features include port forwarding, multihop connections and public IPv4 addresses. The service advertises 99.5% uptime.
