Over a so-called Virtual Private Network (VPN), a sort of "tunnel" is built between your computer and one of Hideway's VPN servers, over which the entirety of your online activities is handled. This tunnel encodes all the information flowing through it using a SSL-connection, which is e.g. also used for online banking, and thereby makes it absolutely tap-proof – even for your internet provider. The tunnel leads to one of the Hideway servers, which then forwards the request to the web. Thus, you surf the web remaining absolutely anonymous: the web pages that you visit only see the IP address of the Hideway server.

Hideway acts both as an anonymizer and an antispyware solution. We hide your IP!

Very important: the Hideway server is located in a country without mandatory data retention. Only this way can you be sure that no nosy officials are reading your data!

It is important to understand the concept of Hideway's VPN.

What we do:

• We hide your IP address (everything you do on the Internet will be done with our Austrian IP address, not yours)
• We encrypt all traffic between your computer and our server.

What we can NOT do:

• Encrypting traffic between our Austria-based server and a third-party computer

So in some cases it is important to use additional security measures:

• Whenever possible use SSL to access websites (https instead of http)
• Use email encryption techniques (for example PGP)

Also we cannot protect you if there is some spyware/trojan stored on your local computer. So make sure your computer is clean!

And last but not least: Check from time to time if your VPN is "up" (small green computer icon in the bottom right corner of your screen) and use our VPN Check!
