The ranking
weighted toward what we verify · 4 providers
Each bar is the interval a score provably sits in: the left edge is what a provider has earned outright, the right edge is the most it could reach if everything we have not measured went perfectly. The mark is the published figure, see the methodology.
How a score is built
Gather primary evidence
We read each provider's own privacy policy, terms, audits and pricing, and record the exact passage.
Cite every claim
Each fact links to its source with the quoted text and the date we captured it, so you can check it yourself.
Compute the score
An open formula turns the evidence into one number, capped by how well each input is verified.
What we weigh
Eleven dimensions, weighted toward what we can verify from primary sources.
From the notebook
All entriesVPNTestor Platform's complete July 2026 third-party security audit report covering SingLinkVPN clients, leak protection, access controls, remediation, scoring, and limitations.
A source-linked index of the VPN audits currently recorded by VPNTestor Platform. It separates a public report from a provider summary, records scope and tested version, and states what the evidence cannot establish.
We ran the parts of a professional VPN security audit that can be done from the outside on SingLink VPN: transport-layer configuration, the App Store record, and the protocol, transparency, logging and jurisdiction posture read from its own documents. The transport layer is modern. The security-critical core, the protocol and the independent-audit trail, is either unverifiable by design or absent. Here is exactly what checks out, what does not, and what no outsider can confirm.
Reading a score
- Measured
- We produced this number ourselves and can reproduce it.
- Documented
- Read out of a primary document: a privacy policy, an audit report, or source code.
- Vendor-claimed
- Asserted by the provider. We have not independently verified it, and the score is capped accordingly.
- No evidence
- We found nothing to score. The dimension is excluded from the weighted mean rather than counted as zero.
Weighting: Default (evidence-weighted). Weights are allocated toward what this site independently verifies. Speed and streaming are vendor-claimed rather than measured here, so they carry roughly half the weight the industry standard assigns them; that weight moves to privacy, transparency and server authenticity, all of which are checked against primary documents or our own probe network.
