Why use a VPN in Germany?
Secure your digital privacy at home and abroad
Whether it’s protecting your internet traffic from GEMA or just hiding your trace from internet marketers, Surfshark VPN will suit your German VPN needs just fine by encrypting your internet connection and hiding your IP address.
Watch anything in complete privacy
Stream your favorite shows without being watched and tracked. Netflix, Crunchyroll, Hulu, Peacock, Shudder, Disney+, Hotstar, and more - right in your living room in Bad Oeynhausen by establishing a VPN connection to a foreign server.
Use fast local servers for optimal speed
Can we say that we’re a German VPN? Well, see for yourself: we have VPN servers in Berlin, Frankfurt am Main, a multihop server that connects you to the UK before looping back to a German server, and several static IP servers in Frankfurt.
Disclaimer: Surfshark does not encourage using a VPN in any way that would potentially violate the Terms of Service of other service providers.
A Germany VPN with reliable world-wide service
Enjoy no activity logs policy
Not only do we operate on a no activity logs policy, but all of our servers are RAM-only. This means that anyone trying to seize the servers wouldn’t find anything, as any data passing through the servers or required to maintain a VPN connection would be lost as soon as they’re turned off.
Mask your IP address
The ability to mask your IP (Internet Protocol) address ensures that you won’t have your internet service provider or other third parties spy on your traffic. If anyone tries to access your data, they will only see the IP address of whatever VPN server you’re connected to.
Benefit from great servers in Germany for optimal speed
All German VPN servers feature P2P support, WireGuard/OpenVPN/IKEv2, Private DNS, Camouflage mode, and up to 10 Gbps server ports to maintain good speeds.
FAQ
How do I get a VPN in Germany?
Is a VPN legal in Germany?
Germany ranks high on freedom of the internet, so VPN use is legal. Partaking in illegal activities – like software piracy while using a VPN app is still illegal.
What’s the best free VPN in Germany?
Free VPNs are inherently untrustworthy and unsafe, so we’d advise against using them:
- Free VPN apps have less money to spend on quality assurance and research.
- Free VPNs have to make money somehow, so they might show ads, impose caps to make you buy the premium version, or just sell your data.
- Quite a few free VPN apps have been discovered to contain malware or not encrypt your data.
- Free services have far fewer VPN server locations.
Instead, why not use a premium VPN provider like Surfshark that offers a 30-day money-back guarantee?
