Protection For All Your Devices
Surf in Privacy with PIA’s Chrome VPN Extension
Third parties track everything you do online, and Google is no exception.
Their business runs on your data, and their Chrome browser allows trackers and other cookies by default, compromising your privacy before you even get started. You can enable some security features in Chrome’s settings, but they fall short of any meaningful privacy. Websites can access your autofill data, location, or webcam far too easily.
For real privacy in your browser you need a VPN extension for Chrome.

When Should I use the Chrome VPN Extension Versus the VPN app?
When you’re surfing the web or streaming, use the Chrome Extension. It blocks unwanted trackers and ads while giving you a streamlined connection. When privacy really matters, and especially when you’re using multiple apps, you’ll need the full VPN.
Isn’t Chrome’s Incognito Mode Enough?
Chrome’s incognito mode doesn’t offer much protection at all. It only clears cookies and trackers, and stops the browser from recording new ones. It doesn’t stop third parties from seeing your data. Only a VPN keeps your information really private.

FAQ
Every app and website collects data on its users, often without you knowing. Most browsers aren’t designed to protect your digital identity. They may have a few advanced settings, but they won’t protect your IP address, location data, or webcam, and they won’t stop malware in its tracks.
To take full control of your privacy, you’ll need PIA VPN’s browser extension. PIA is like a bouncer for your browser, protecting your data from trackers, advertisers, cybercrooks, and snoops.
You’ll find lots of browser extensions available, but most are little more than proxies with hardly any security features. When you add PIA to Chrome you’ll get to block trackers, secure your webcam, and automatically switch to HTTPS encryption.
PIA brings 10+ years of experience to our Chrome app, with a comprehensive suite of security features such as WebRTC, UTM, and FBCLID blocking. Subscribe to our Chrome extension and you get full access to our VPN app, so you can protect any device, anywhere.
Setting up the extension is easy. Go to the Chrome Web Store, search for Private Internet Access, and click Add to Chrome. Click on the extension icon, sign in, click the connect button, and you’re good to go. If you have questions about setup, reach out to our 24/7 Customer Support team.
No, so you’ll need to use a third-party extension to get browsing protection.
Subscribe to PIA VPN and download our Chrome extension to block trackers, cookies, and unwanted ads. This way you can surf the web and stream your favorite shows without worrying about who’s accessing your data.
The PIA Chrome extension is a great start to protecting your digital identity, but it doesn’t have all the features you need for complete protection.
The PIA app doesn’t just work in Chrome, it protects your whole device and comes with a ton of advanced features to keep your info safe. This includes an advanced Kill Switch, multi-hop obfuscation, and unlimited access to our worldwide server network.

When you use a VPN you’re routing your data through more servers, so it’s possible your speeds will slow down. We’ve built an advanced NextGen server network to reduce connection slowdowns. Our 10 Gbps connectors will give you the best speeds possible. If your connection slows down when you connect to PIA, you most likely won’t even notice.
