Purpose
These Terms govern the use of the VPNSmith site and its editorial content (self-host VPN guides, VPS benchmarks, methodology). Accessing and using the site implies acceptance of these conditions.
Conditions of use
The published guides and scripts (WireGuard commands, UFW configurations, throughput benchmarks) are educational templates. The user agrees not to attempt to disrupt the service (denial of service, mass scraping).
Limitation of liability
The published guides and benchmarks (WireGuard setups, UFW hardening, iPerf3 measurements) are educational templates. The user remains solely responsible for their technical choices and consequences (security, legality of VPN use in their jurisdiction).
Affiliate links
Some outbound links point to commercial partners (notably {partner} via CJ Affiliate). A subscription via these links earns us a commission, without impact on the price paid. Recommendations remain independent: we do not rank a product by commission but by test results.
Applicable law
These Terms are governed by French law. Any dispute falls under the competent courts at the publisher's seat, unless mandatory provisions state otherwise.
