Vexon
Effective Date: September 1, 2026
Last Updated: September 1, 2026
Summary: This Privacy Policy and Data Protection Guide outlines how Vexon safeguards user digital identity. As an encrypted browser proxy and Chrome extension engineered to hide IP Chrome browsing activity and deliver enterprise-grade DNS leak protection, Vexon enforces a strict zero-logging standard across our secure edge network.
Vexon is a product of Snippipedia Inc., a company registered in the United States.
Vexon is a Chrome browser privacy tool that routes browser traffic through our secure edge global proxy network. We built Vexon with one principle: collect the least amount of data possible to run the service. Users rely on Vexon to hide IP Chrome connections without installing intrusive system-wide software. By combining encrypted routing with automatic DNS leak protection, Vexon stops ISPs, network trackers, and malicious actors from snooping on your browsing destinations.
This Privacy Policy explains exactly what we collect, why we collect it, how we store it, and your rights over it. No legal jargon. No hidden clauses.
If you do not agree with this policy, do not install or use Vexon.
This policy applies to:
We want to be direct about this first.
Vexon does NOT collect or store:
Our secure edge network processes your proxy traffic at the edge and discards it immediately. Nothing passes through servers we own or manage.

Retained: Until account deletion
What: Secure Subscription ID, plan type (e.g. Vex, Vexon, Vexon+), plan start date, plan expiry date

We do NOT store your real IP address in session logs. Your email is stored as a one-way cryptographic hash — we cannot reverse it to your actual email.
