We operate an extensive high availability network of UK proxy servers to ensure that our customers enjoy the highest quality of service, privacy and security.You can also use Hoxx VPN to hide your tracks and/or protect your personal information at public Wi-Fi locations.ĭid you know that public Internet locations are dangerous for your personal data? Bad people around you, on the same network can sniff out your personal information. This enables our UK proxies to provide fast access to regularly accessed websites and services. Unlike a VPN, our UK proxy servers cache regularly accessed web pages like the news. This is exactly the same model as the corporate organisations described above. In our case, our users connect to our UK proxy service, and we connect to the websites our users wish to access. This encrypted tunnel provides little or no security to users in this situation, as it is still possible to break the encryption, and also monitor user activity from the other end of the tunnel.Ī proxy server provides a central point, or points, from which users access the Internet. The client is then assigned an IP address on the provider’s network, which is then used to access the Internet. Differences between a UK Web Proxy and a UK VPNĪ VPN simply provides an encrypted tunnel between the user and a VPN server. If corporate organisations can benefit from this technology, so should our expat community.
Web proxies significantly improve corporate network security and enables employees to access these “Geo-Aware” websites. Most internationally based organisations deploy similar web proxy technology to ours, in key locations around the globe. Obviously this kind of tracking can prevent access to some UK websites that our expat community would like to access. This information is regularly used by marketing organisations for user profiling, and sales promotion.įurthermore, some “Geo-Aware” websites actively prevent access to their content from IP addresses that are not registered to the UK. Many websites routinely track which websites you visit, and where you have accessed that website from. This ensures that we can maintain the highest levels service for our subscribers and sufficient investment in our infrastructure. We do not fund this service by advertising on our proxies, or selling email addresses to online marketing companies. UK Proxy IP Address is a subscription based service. We use very similar web proxy technology to many large multinational corporate organisations which routinely deploy web proxies in key locations globally, to improve their network security and network performance. Our service provides access to these services, just as if you were in the UK.
