PrivadoVPN Free gives you 10GB of data every 30 days without a credit card. The FAQ on privadovpn.com says the free plan includes 10GB a month, access to 13 server locations and strong encryption, while the company's App Store listing describes 12 global servers, so expect roughly a dozen choices either way. The pricing page says you can use PrivadoVPN on 1 device with a free account and up to 10 devices with a paid subscription. That is a reasonable setup for someone who wants a VPN for banking and email on hotel Wi-Fi a few times a month, and the App Store listing describes the app as ad-free. The allowance is the limit, as with Windscribe: 10GB covers a lot of browsing but not much video. On the US App Store, Premium costs $10.99 for 1 month or $59.99 for 1 year, which works out to about $5.00 a month.
