## Questions & answers
### [What is a VPN?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/how-to-geek-q39054460#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-d686434c306cf932-a-b61192fc74669052f973)
“VPN stands for "virtual private network." It's a way of sending data across a public network (like the internet) as if you were connected to a private network in a different location.”
Sources: https://www.howtogeek.com/738071/best-vpn-services/

### [How does a VPN work?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/how-to-geek-q39054460#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-d686434c306cf932-a-cfeb383d9ebd7608bb9a)
“When you connect to a VPN, your device creates a secure tunnel between itself and the remote VPN server. The VPN server functions as a go-between, forwarding traffic back and forth.”
Sources: https://www.howtogeek.com/738071/best-vpn-services/

### [How do I get the most out of a VPN?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/how-to-geek-q39054460#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-d686434c306cf932-a-f7da74b3c5a36f068ad0)
“First, choose a solid VPN. Not all VPNs are equal.”

### [How do I set up a VPN?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/how-to-geek-q39054460#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-d686434c306cf932-a-7e0481b1c584c48f2185)
“If you're picking a consumer VPN, setup is easy: You will just need to create an account, download an application, sign in, and press a button or two. The VPNs we recommend offer apps for platforms like Windows, Mac, iPhone, Android, iPad, Chrome OS, and Linux.”

### [Can I be tracked using a VPN?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/how-to-geek-q39054460#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-d686434c306cf932-a-b4224b913d750ff50156)
“A VPN can make it more difficult to track you online. Rather than using a unique IP address, you're sharing a VPN's IP address with other people, and that IP address isn't tied to your physical location.”
