Terms and Conditions

Terms of Service

This policy outlines the VanishedVPN terms and conditions of usage. By signing up with and/or utilising any VanishedVPN service, you agree to be bound by the following terms of this document and the terms of the other named policies included herein by reference and to keep updated on changes as these policies may change at any time.

Definition of the Service that you are buying

'The Service' that we provide is a Virtual Private Network (VPN) which is made available for your use on a 'subscription' basis (either monthly or Annual). During the time that you continue your subscription, you will have access to our VPN servers , which enable you to create a private, secure tunnel from your device to protect your privacy, and improve your security while online. As part of the service that you purchase, we also provide setup guides, and a basic level of technical support to assist you with the configuration of your device.

The 'service' does not include a guarantee of access to any 3rd party sites or services. With the exception of www.vanishedvpn.com.au , all other sites and services on the internet are not within our control and are not part of the Service that we provide.

Service availability

Actual service coverage, speeds, locations and quality may vary. We will attempt to make the Services available at all times except for limited periods for maintenance and repair. However, the Services may be subject to unavailability for a variety of factors beyond our control, including, but not limited to, emergencies, third party service failures, transmission, equipment or network problems or limitations, interference, and poor signal strength. You acknowledge that, under such circumstances, the Services may be interrupted, limited, or curtailed. We are not responsible for loss of data, nor for messages or pages lost, not delivered, delayed or misdirected, due to interruptions caused by performance issues with the Services. We may impose usage or service limits, suspend Services, or block certain kinds of usage in our sole discretion to protect users of the Services. The accuracy and timeliness of data received is not guaranteed; delays or omissions may occur.

Service Delivery

The Services will be activated within 6 hours of receipt to us of notification of successful payment. Your billing cycle begins on the date that we have received payment from you.

A termination fee may also be assessed. It is within VanishedVPN's sole discretion to determine what comprises unreasonable use.
