Before you start reading
Let's be honest.
Most people never read the Terms of Service of a service.
We understand that.
That's why we've tried to write K1VPN's Terms of Service in as simple, clear and understandable a way as possible.
In each section you'll find a short summary first, followed immediately by the detailed explanation.
The summaries are designed to help you quickly understand the content of each section.
However, the full provisions that follow constitute the official and binding Terms of Service of the service.
1. Acceptance of Terms
In brief
By using K1VPN you accept these Terms.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern access to and use of the website, applications and services provided by K1VPN LLC ("K1VPN", "we", "us").
By creating an account, purchasing a subscription or using any K1VPN service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
If you do not agree with any part of the Terms, you must not use our services.
2. What is K1VPN
In brief
K1VPN provides VPN services with a focus on privacy and security.
K1VPN provides Virtual Private Network (VPN) services, as well as related applications, software, technological infrastructure and auxiliary services relating to VPN operation.
The service allows users to encrypt their internet traffic and route their communications through K1VPN's servers.
K1VPN operates in accordance with the Privacy Policy published on our website, which also covers the No-Logs Policy in detail.
3. Account Creation
In brief
You need an account to use the service. If you pay with cryptocurrency you still need an account, but it is not linked to your email and is anonymous, since it is generated at random. You are responsible for the security of your account, and in every case you should enable two-factor authentication (2FA).
An account is required to use K1VPN's services.
When registering you may be asked for:
- - email address,
- - username,
- - password,
- - payment details for paid services or trial access.
The user is solely responsible for:
- - maintaining the confidentiality of their password,
- - managing access to their account,
- - all activity carried out through their account.
Selling, transferring or granting accounts to third parties without prior written consent from K1VPN is not permitted.
4. Account Security
In brief
If you believe someone has accessed your account, notify us immediately.
You must notify us immediately if you:
- - suspect unauthorised access,
- - lose control of your account,
- - notice suspicious activity.
K1VPN is not liable for damage resulting from inadequate protection of access credentials by the user.
We reserve the right to temporarily suspend accounts where there are reasonable grounds to suspect a breach or abuse.
5. Free Trial Access
In brief
We offer a free trial period so you can evaluate the service before purchasing a subscription or a one-time access package. No charges apply.
K1VPN may offer free trial access of up to 48 hours.
Activating the trial period requires:
- - Creating an account,
- - Registering a valid payment card,
- - Accepting these Terms.
Your access to the K1VPN network is full and without any restrictions, exactly as for paying customers.
We ask for a valid card solely to prevent abuse. No charge is made, not even after the trial period ends. You will need to actively choose an access package yourself.
K1VPN reserves the right to restrict or reject trial periods where abuse or an attempt to circumvent the trial programme is detected.
The detailed terms of the trial period are described in the Free Trial Terms.
6. Subscriptions and Auto-Renewal
In brief
Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel them. One-time packages do not, as they are charged once only.
K1VPN's services are provided either through subscription plans or via a one-time purchase of access time through your dashboard.
By purchasing a subscription plan (e.g. annual), you authorise K1VPN and its associated payment providers to charge your chosen payment method in accordance with the selected plan (e.g. every year).
Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each subscription period unless auto-renewal is disabled before the renewal date.
Subscription management, including cancellation of auto-renewal, can be carried out very easily through your account dashboard, in the 'Billing' section. See here how to cancel your subscription.
7. Pricing and Price Changes
In brief
Prices may change in the future, but we will not unexpectedly change a billing period you have already paid for.
K1VPN reserves the right to modify:
- - subscription prices,
- - available packages,
- - plan durations,
- - service features.
Any price changes will apply only to future charges and renewals.
Users will be notified in good time where required by applicable law.
8. Payments
In brief
Payments are processed by specialist payment providers.
Payments for K1VPN services are processed through third-party payment providers including Stripe. Full details on how payment data is handled are in our Privacy Policy.
K1VPN does not store full credit or debit card details.
Transactions are also subject to the terms and policies of the relevant payment provider.
9. Refunds
In brief
K1VPN does not offer a commercial money-back guarantee, as it provides a free trial period before every purchase.
K1VPN offers full, free trial access before purchasing any package, whether a subscription or a one-time access time package.
The free trial is designed so that users can fully evaluate the service before making any payment. Full details in the Free Trial Terms.
