Add-on summary

The Avast SecureLine VPN Web Extension is a simple browser application that allows you to control your SecureLine VPN easier and faster from your browser toolbar. One click, and you can turn your VPN on or off, or change where you’re connecting from to give you a perfectly seamless privacy experience.

Please note that this is not a stand-alone VPN product. It requires Avast SecureLine VPN to be installed on your PC or Mac, which must be activated with a valid license. But once you get that going, then it’ll be good to go.

Not sure what a VPN is? A VPN (or virtual private network) is like a secure tunnel that hides you when you browse. Normally when you connect online, what you’re doing could be seen by anyone else on the network, and your location and other personal information can be tracked. But when you connect with a VPN, your data is encrypted and your location is hidden, allowing you to use public wi-fi fearlessly and access websites and content that might be censored or geo-locked.

Why Avast SecureLine VPN?

Powerful, fast connection: Unlike other VPNs, Avast SecureLine VPN is optimized for performance, which means you’ll never have to choose between privacy and speed.

256-bit encryption: We use the same technology used by banks to keep their data safe to secure your connection to the internet.

Worldwide selection: We offer 54 locations in 35 countries, giving you all the options you need… and then some.

Hidden even to us: we don’t track the apps you use, the websites you visit or the content you consume, period. If someone asks, we just can’t answer.
