Question about using VPN when on a network that is being monitored
Hi!
This is probably a very stupid question but here goes. Where I live, Internet is offered from the housing company, who get it from an ISP. The housing company states that they monitor every connection on the network and they have a bunch of rules that you have to follow, however they do allow VPN. In the apartment there's an Ethernet port and I plugged in a router for wireless access. My question is, will VPN work in this situation? Is it already encrypted before it reaches the housing company's hands? English is not my first language

Thank you for your response! To assist, our VPN works by establishing an encrypted tunnel between your computer and our server.
What happens when your ISP provides you with an internet connection? Our service then encrypts this connection, making it anonymous and secure. Your ISP cannot see what you are downloading, because of the encryption used by our service. Other people online cannot see who you really are, because our server acts as a middle-man between you and any connections you are establishing, so all anyone sees when you connect to something is our server. This then makes it appear to the internet that your IP Address is the IP address of our server. The encryption offered by the VPN provides security, privacy, and anonymity from prying eyes.
