Accuracy & Fact-Checking
- Technical claims about VPN protocols, encryption, and security are reviewed by our engineering team before publication.
- Statistics pages are updated regularly as new data becomes available. Every stat page shows its last-updated date.
- If we discover an error, we correct it promptly and note the correction.

Content Types
Blog Posts & Guides
Our blog covers cybersecurity news, VPN tutorials, and privacy guides. Pillar guides are comprehensive, long-form articles (2,000+ words) that serve as definitive resources on specific topics. Our content team researches, writes, and maintains these resources.
Research & Statistics
Our research pages compile cybersecurity statistics from authoritative sources. Each statistic includes its source, and we update these pages as new data becomes available from organizations like the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Freedom House, and industry reports.
Tool Pages
Our security tools (IP checker, DNS leak test, speed test, etc.) are functional utilities that provide real-time results. The educational content on these pages explains what the results mean and how to interpret them.
Product Pages
Pages about GhostShield VPN features, pricing, and downloads are clearly product content. We aim to be accurate and transparent about our capabilities and limitations.
Testing Methodology
When we make claims about VPN performance, server speeds, or streaming compatibility, these are based on actual testing conducted by our team. For details on how we test, see our testing methodology page.
Corrections & Updates
