All VPN services have operating costs. With Paper VPN, you pay directly with money. "Free" VPNs often charge you in other ways, such as selling your data to third parties or forcing you to watch ads. Free VPNs also tend to struggle with maintaining the same quality, security, and speed as paid providers, so you’re more likely to face slow connections, weaker privacy protections, and, in some cases, even have your device used to route other users’ traffic.

At Paper VPN, we don’t sell or store your data. We focus on delivering stable, reliable performance, ensuring our service is both secure and accessible — without the risks associated with free VPNs.

Paper VPN works smoothly on the following operating systems:

• Windows: version 10 and up
• macOS: version 10.15 and up
• iOS: version 14 and up
• Android: version 10 and up

Before purchasing, please make sure your device meets these minimum requirements to ensure the service functions correctly.

If you find that you have an older operating system, please contact support at support@papervpn.io before purchasing. While we can’t guarantee compatibility with older systems, we’ll do our best to help.

Yes, VPNs are legal in most countries, as long as they're used lawfully.

However, some countries with strict internet regulations — like North Korea, Belarus, Oman, and Iraq — ban VPNs entirely, while others, like Russia and China, impose heavy restrictions on their use.
