What a VPN Adds

Encryption between your device and the VPN server, and IP masking so the cloud provider sees the VPN exit IP. We do not log your traffic.

Performance

With WireGuard and a nearby server, sync speed impact is usually small. For large uploads, pick a server with good bandwidth.

Conclusion

Connect to the VPN before opening your cloud app. Your sync and backups then use the encrypted tunnel.
