1. Introduction & Overview

ByteBunkers ("we," "our," or "us") is dedicated to protecting your privacy and digital freedom. This Privacy Policy explains how ByteBunkers VPN operates, how Android’s VpnService API is utilized, and how we handle information in full compliance with the Google Play Developer Program Policies and international privacy frameworks (including GDPR and CCPA).

Core Commitment: ByteBunkers VPN operates under a strict Zero-Logs Policy. We do not track, collect, record, or monetize your browsing history, destination websites, DNS queries, or internet activity.

2. Core VPN Functionality & Android VpnService

ByteBunkers VPN is a full-featured Virtual Private Network (VPN) utility whose primary functionality is to establish an encrypted virtual tunnel for your device.

  • Purpose of VpnService: We utilize Android's official android.net.VpnService API to establish a secure, local virtual network interface (tun0).
  • Encrypted Tunneling: Once activated by the user, device-wide IPv4 and IPv6 traffic is routed through this encrypted interface to remote obfuscated relay nodes.
  • Protocol Encryption: All traffic in transit is secured using modern cryptographic standards (including WireGuard, TLS 1.3, Shadowsocks AEAD, and Xray protocols) to prevent surveillance, packet snooping on public Wi-Fi, and ISP-level content throttling.
  • No Traffic Manipulation: We do not inspect, inject, modify, or censor your network traffic.

3. Strict Zero-Logs Guarantee

We firmly believe that what you do online is your business only. When connected to ByteBunkers VPN:

Browsing History & URLsNEVER collected, stored, or monitored
Traffic Destination IPsNEVER collected, stored, or monitored
DNS QueriesNEVER logged or recorded (routed via encrypted FakeDNS & DoH)

4. Information We Do NOT Collect

  • We do NOT require user registration, usernames, or email addresses.
  • We do NOT require credit cards or billing information.
  • We do NOT collect physical GPS location data.
  • We do NOT access your device storage, photos, contacts, microphone, or camera.

5. Third-Party Services & Advertising (Google AdMob)

To provide free, high-speed encrypted VPN servers to our users without subscription fees, ByteBunkers VPN displays advertisements using the Google Mobile Ads SDK (Google AdMob).

Information Handled by Google AdMob:

  • Device Identifiers: Google AdMob may process your device's Google Advertising ID (GAID), IP address (temporarily for geo-targeted ads at country/city level), and standard device diagnostic metrics.
  • Ad Performance & Fraud Prevention: Non-personal telemetry used to serve ads, measure impressions, and detect invalid traffic or fraud.
  • Encrypted in Transit: All interactions with Google AdMob servers are encrypted using industry-standard TLS encryption.

For detailed information on how Google handles advertising data, please review:

Opting Out of Personalized Advertising:

You can reset or delete your Advertising ID at any time via your Android device settings:

  • Go to Settings > Security & Privacy (or Google) > Ads.
  • Tap Delete advertising ID or Reset advertising ID.

6. Data Security Measures

  • Encryption in Transit: All tunnel communications utilize end-to-end cryptographic ciphers (ChaCha20-Poly1305, AES-256-GCM).
  • RAM-Only Operation: Tunnel routing engines operate in volatile memory. No disk caches of packet payloads or destination addresses exist.
  • DNS Leak Protection: All DNS resolutions are intercepted and shielded to prevent leaking queries to your local Internet Service Provider (ISP).

7. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

ByteBunkers VPN is intended for general audiences aged 18 and older (and teenagers aged 13+). We do not knowingly collect personal identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately, and we will take steps to remove such information.

8. International User Rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Regardless of your geographic location, we respect your privacy rights:

  • Right to Access & Deletion: Because we operate on a zero-logs, no-account architecture, we possess no identifiable data linking you to your browsing sessions.
  • Right to Restrict Processing: You have full control over the VPN connection and may activate or terminate the tunnel at any moment with a single tap.
  • No Sale of Personal Data: We do not sell, rent, or trade user data to third parties or data brokers.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may periodically update our Privacy Policy to reflect technical enhancements or regulatory changes. Any updates will be published at this URL with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
