Logging (Connection Logs)

Connection logs may include timestamps, server chosen, and data totals; privacy depends on what’s logged and retained. For most people, the biggest privacy win is shielding activity from local network observers and reducing ISP-level profiling. A practical tip is to verify behavior after OS updates, since networking defaults and DNS behavior can change unexpectedly. When in doubt, prefer simpler configurations: fewer exceptions, fewer custom routes, and verified leak-test results. VPN Surf and Elite VPN guidance aims to keep the concept actionable, not just theoretical.
