Frequently Asked Questions
The .onion lets users sign up, pay, and download configs without their connection touching standard CDN edges. Tor users can onboard the VPN without first having to expose unencrypted traffic to reach the signup page — useful for users in jurisdictions where Proton's clearnet domains are blocked.
Yes — anonymous Bitcoin payment is supported, and the .onion checkout flow doesn't require a personal email address. Combined with the .onion access path, the entire signup-through-pay flow can be conducted without identity exposure if the user maintains OPSEC discipline.
Proton's no-logs policy is annually audited by external security firms, and the audit reports are published. Treat audit reports as one signal among many — the company's overall jurisdictional positioning in Switzerland reinforces the policy with regulatory backing rather than just contractual promise.
VPN-over-Tor and Tor-over-VPN are both viable Proton configurations depending on threat model. The .onion service is for account management and configuration download — actual VPN tunneling happens through standard Proton infrastructure, which the user reaches over their preferred network path.
