Privacy Detectives:
Cybersecurity and Personal Privacy Reviews
Welcome to Privacy Detectives! We exist because too many “review” sites are owned by the exact same companies that own the products the site promotes.

We don’t agree with this approach and believe all product reviews should be 100% unbiased, independent, and authentic.

Every recommendation is based solely on thorough research, real-world testing, user feedback, and nothing else.

What We Do

Here at Privacy Detectives, we’re on a mission to make the internet a safer place for you and your digital footprint.

Our mission is to cut through the technical jargon and present our findings in a professional yet accessible manner. We believe in making cybersecurity understandable and approachable for all, enabling informed decisions about the tools you use to protect your digital life.

Whether you’re looking to secure your browsing, manage your passwords, or enhance your overall internet security, we provide the expert advice you need to stay one step ahead.

 

In the digital era, privacy is paramount. VPNs serve as a critical layer of protection, encrypting your internet connection and shielding your online activities from unwanted scrutiny. Our expert reviews investigate and rank the hundreds of VPN services available, evaluating them on ease of use, security features, and value for money. We aim to identify the most reliable and user-friendly options, making it simpler for you to navigate the complexities of online privacy.

 

With the vast number of online accounts each of us holds, remembering every password is an unrealistic expectation. Password managers are essential tools that generate, store, and manage your passwords for you. Our thorough analysis focuses on finding the most secure and intuitive password managers, ensuring your digital credentials are well-protected and easily accessible only to you.

 

What Sets Us Apart From Other Review Sites

Authenticity

Our rankings and recommendations aren’t based on our affiliate earnings or pre-determined list of top affiliate partnerships. Most of our competitors list the same 3-5 VPNs as the best options for every single article. We’re sorry, but no VPN is the best at everything. This is not authentic, trustworthy, or accurate. Instead, we conduct thorough research for every new post we write. We reevaluate each VPN and choose the truly best options for each topic. So, you’ll see a new VPN order in every article.

Human Content

Many cybersecurity review sites obviously use AI for their content. They can do this when they have a set list of VPNs they recommend and share the same information over and over again, despite it not being very helpful to the reader. We operate differently. When you explore our page, you’ll notice that we don’t post nearly as often as our competitors. This is because we don’t churn out articles for the sake of profit. We’re a small team writing valuable, unique content, and we take our time with every piece we publish.

Independence

We are not owned by or partnered with any company that also owns VPNs, password managers, or any other cybersecurity products. This means our opinions are fully our own.

Why Trust Our Reviews

Integrity

100% real, honest reviews

Our reviews are based solely on research and testing. We don’t get paid to write reviews, rank certain products more highly, or otherwise favor one provider over another.

Our Small But Mighty Team

Privacy Detectives is not a big corporate entity. We are a small team of dedicated cybersecurity experts — there’s only 3 of us! Get to know us:

Elora S.

Owner & Head Content Manager.

She has 9 years experience writing about cybersecurity tools (including VPNs, password managers, encrypted messaging apps, and antivirus software). When she’s not working, she raises orphaned kittens, curls up with a good book, or tackles DIY projects around the house.

Rick M.

VPN Writer & Researcher.

With over a decade of experience in the cybersecurity realm, Rick has dedicated himself to demystifying digital privacy for the everyday user. Outside the digital battleground, Rick is an avid hiker, exploring trails whenever he can disconnect. He also enjoys brewing his own beer.

Mari V.

Password Manager Writer & Researcher.

She’s been writing about tech and cybersecurity for 4 years and is the newest member of Privacy Detectives. Mari is passionate about her 3 ferrets and enjoys baking with her younger sister. She also dabbles in gymnastics (though she doesn’t think she’s very good…yet).

Just like you, we’re concerned about privacy and online security and believe everyone should have the tools to protect themselves online. We’re real people conducting real tests to find the best VPNs and password managers to keep you safe and anonymous.
