NordVPN Introduces a Warrant Canary

In the US and some other jurisdictions, Internet service providers, VPN services and other entities can be served secret warrants, such as government subpoenas or national security letters. These warrants from law enforcement agencies are designed to force companies to turn over any records or details on their customers for investigation. They are often accompanied by a gag order preventing the company from notifying the target that they have been subjected to surveillance.

NordVPN Introduces a Warrant Canary

This is where warrant canaries come in. A warrant canary is a regularly published statement confirming that a service provider has not received a secret warrant and been prohibited from reporting it. Once a service provider does receive such request, the speech injunction goes into place, and the canary statement is removed.

While NordVPN is based in Panama, where data retention is not required and gag orders are not legally possible, we want to give you extra assurance by publishing our own warrant canary, updated daily.

We, NordVPN, confirm that we take full control of our infrastructure. We have never willingly disclosed any user data or provided any access to user traffic to any third party. We do not collect user traffic logs and have never been compelled to do so by any third party. We have not disclosed any private keys or any information of our users, and we have not been forced to modify our system to allow access or data leakage to a third party of any kind.

As of 2022-02-15, we:

  • Have NOT received any National Security letters;
  • Have NOT received any gag orders;
  • Have NOT received any warrants from any government organization.

NordVPN operates under the jurisdiction of Panama and will only comply with requests from foreign governments and law enforcement agencies if these requests are delivered according to laws and regulations. We are 100% committed to our zero-logs policy – to ensure users’ ultimate privacy and security, we never log their activity unless ordered by a court in an appropriate, legal way. If you want to join the NordVPN movement, you can download the app today using a NordVPN coupon to get the best deal possible.
