Privacy Policy

1. In short

Your history, bookmarks, cookies, passwords and downloads stay on your computer.

We do not sell data, show ads or build a browsing profile about you.

We only send data to our servers when you create an account, turn on sync, use meetings or write to us. Even then, we send the minimum and protect what is sensitive.

2. What stays only on your computer

History, bookmarks, tabs, workspaces, cookies, cache and downloads stay on your computer, in the browser’s data folder.

Saved passwords are encrypted with Windows protection and, to view or copy them, the browser asks for the vault password. We never see these passwords.

Private browsing does not save history, cookies or passwords and discards everything when you close the window. It does not hide what you do from your internet provider, your employer or the websites.

3. Account and sync (optional)

To create an account we use your e-mail, your name (optional) and a password, stored only as an irreversible code (hash). If you sign in with Google, Microsoft or Apple, we receive the e-mail and name that the provider authorizes, and never your password with them.

With sync on, we send to our servers workspaces, tabs, bookmarks, history, sidebar apps, the extension list and settings. Everything is encrypted on the server. Passwords are only synced if you turn that option on and are end-to-end encrypted, with a key derived from the vault password that exists only on your computers: not even we can read them.

The content of the pages you visit is not sent.

4. Meetings

To hold a meeting we store: the meeting code and time, who took part and in what role, the invitations sent (the invitee’s e-mail) and chat messages, so you can see them when you rejoin. We do not record meeting audio or video.

Audio, video and the shared screen pass through our meeting server only to reach the other participants, encrypted in transit, and are not stored.

When you invite someone by e-mail, we send a message on your behalf containing the meeting link.

5. Website forms

When you use the suggestion, support or business contact forms, we receive what you write (name, e-mail, message and, if provided, company, phone and browser version) and your IP address, to prevent abuse. We use this data only to reply and improve the product.

These messages arrive in our mailbox (suggestion@, support@ and [email protected]) and stay there as long as needed for the service. The vbrowser.net website uses no tracking cookies or third-party analytics tools. It counts visits with our own cookieless statistics: page, language, country, referring site and device type, without storing your IP address (the visitor code changes every day and cannot be linked across days). We respect your browser’s “Do Not Track” and “Global Privacy Control” signals. Page fonts are loaded from Google Fonts servers, which receive your IP.

5.1 Usage and crash data

Sending crash reports is optional and off by default. When you turn it on, we send an anonymous technical summary (error type, version and system), without website addresses, folder names or identifiers of yours.

Usage statistics are optional and off by default: if you turn them on in Settings, we receive the browser version, system, language, country and which features you used (for example, VPN or meetings), with a random device code unrelated to your account, e-mail or IP, and never the sites you visit. You can turn it off at any time. Crash reports are kept for up to 90 days.

6. Third-party services the browser uses

Some features depend on outside services. They are only triggered when you use the feature, and each receives the minimum needed:

Page translation: the page text is sent to Google’s translation service. Weather: your IP is sent to ipwho.is (to find the city) and the city to Open-Meteo. Search suggestions: what you type is sent to the search engine you chose, as in any browser (this can be turned off). VPN: traffic passes through public third-party servers. Suspicious-site check: if your account is on, the domain of an already-suspicious site may be looked up on our server to estimate the domain’s age. Updates: the update.vbrowser.net server sees your IP and installed version when the browser checks for news. Secure DNS: the DNS provider you choose receives the names of the sites you visit.

We do not control these third parties. See their policies.

6.1 Cookies

Cookies from the sites you visit stay on your computer and the tracker blocker stops many third-party cookies. You can delete cookies and site data at any time, or set the browser to delete them on exit.

7. What we use data for (and the legal basis)

To provide the service you asked for (account, sync, meetings) and perform the contract; to comply with legal obligations; to protect the security of the service and prevent fraud and abuse (legitimate interest); and to answer your messages. For any other use we will ask for your consent.

8. Who we share with

We do not sell or rent personal data. We may share only with: providers that run infrastructure on our behalf (hosting, e-mail), bound by confidentiality; authorities, when there is a legal order; and other meeting participants (your name, e-mail and what you say, show or write in it).

9. Security

We use encrypted connections (HTTPS), hashed passwords, encryption of synced data on the server, end-to-end encryption for passwords and a vault protected by Windows. Updates are digitally signed. No system is completely invulnerable: if an incident affecting your data occurs, we will notify you and the authorities as the law requires.

10. How long we keep data

Account and sync data stay as long as your account exists. When you delete it, we remove that data from our systems, except what the law requires us to keep. Meeting and chat history follows the life of the account. Messages sent through the forms are kept as long as needed for service and to meet legal obligations.

11. Your rights

At any time you can: confirm whether we process your data and access it; correct it; request deletion or anonymization; take your data to another service (export); withdraw consents; and object to processing. You can also turn off sync and delete server data in Settings.

To exercise your rights, open a ticket at vbrowser.net/en/support/ or write to [email protected]. We reply within the legal deadline. You may also complain to Brazil’s National Data Protection Authority (ANPD) or to the data protection authority of your country.

12. Children

V Browser is not intended for children under 13 and we do not knowingly create accounts for them. If we learn that we collected a child’s data, we will delete it.

13. International transfers

Our servers and providers may be in other countries. When that happens, we adopt the safeguards provided by law to protect your data.

14. Changes to this policy

When we change this policy, we will update the date at the top and, if the change is significant, announce it on the website or in the browser.
