Private Internet Access (PIA) was initially released in August 2010. Its parent company is London Trust Media, Inc., founded by Andrew Lee, and run by CEO Ted Kim. Also owned by London Trust Media is the Freenode IRC network. Private Internet Access operates more than 3,394 servers in 32 countries and is trusted by companies such as Forbes, Business Insider, Wired, and more.

Private Internet Access uses VPN (virtual private network) tunneling to provide multi-layered security for individuals and businesses. It claims to hide the customer’s IP address using an IP cloak, encrypts data transmission, blocks unwanted connections, provides identity protection, and allows unrestricted and uncensored internet to the likes of US, UK, CA, Romania, Germany, Sweden, Swiss, Sweden, NL, and France based services.

Customers may choose from three subscription plans, each set up for recurring automatic payments. The monthly plan costs $6.95 per month. The six-month plan is available for $35.95, which comes to $5.99 per month. The yearly plan costs $39.95, which comes to $3.33 per month. The six-month and yearly plans are paid in full at the beginning of the subscription period. Customers needing multiple Private Internet Access accounts have the option to buy in bulk, giving potentially larger discounts based on the subscription plan chosen and the number of accounts paid for at once.
