NordVPN service

NordVPN is a leading digital security service originally launched in 2012 by a group of childhood friends. It was founded under the jurisdiction of Panama, a choice made specifically to leverage the country's lack of mandatory data retention laws, ensuring a high degree of privacy for its global user base.

Over the years, NordVPN has grown into a major cybersecurity brand. In 2022, it merged with Surfshark to form Nord Security, a cybersecurity powerhouse. The brand is now part of the Cyberspace group, which maintains its primary operational headquarters in Lithuania while keeping the legal entity for NordVPN registered in Panama to uphold its strict no-logs policy.

The service is developed and maintained by a global workforce primarily based in Europe. As a software-based product, its 'manufacturing' refers to the digital infrastructure and code development managed by Nord Security's engineers worldwide. Today, NordVPN is recognized as one of the most prominent consumer privacy tools on the market.
