What you are actually adding

Nearly every VPN browser plugin Chrome users find in the Web Store is an encrypted proxy for that one browser. Chrome's traffic goes to the publisher's server, and everything else on the computer carries on as before. To do its job, the plugin asks for permission to read and change your data on all websites. That is not a trick. It is how a proxy extension has to work. It does mean that the publisher is in a position to see every page you open and every form you complete.

What it covers

Tabs in that Chrome profile, and nothing beyond the browser.
Incognito windows only if you allow it there separately.
DNS and WebRTC only if the plugin deals with them. Many do not.
Other browsers, email apps, games and system updates are not covered.
Chrome on a phone does not support plugins at all.

Vetting a Chrome plugin for VPN use

✓Who publishes it? Look for a company with a name, an address and a business that it could lose.
✓Does the same firm make a full VPN application? Those firms have a reputation to protect.
✓When was it last updated, and has the owner changed recently?
✓Does the privacy policy say what happens to browsing data?
✓Remove the plugins you are not using. They keep their access for as long as they stay installed.

A cleaner arrangement

Chrome follows the proxy settings of the operating system. So a desktop client running in system proxy mode covers Chrome without any plugin at all, and nothing gains the right to read your pages. Switch the same client to TUN mode and the rest of the computer is covered as well. A Royal Key cannot run inside a plugin anyway, because extensions have no means of speaking VLESS. That is why we point people to the client.

Chrome through a key

1Install Hiddify or v2rayN on Windows, or Hiddify or V2Box on a Mac.
2Ask @royalkey_club_bot for the five free days, and import the key.
3Switch on the system proxy in the client. Chrome picks it up straight away.
4Search what is my IP in order to confirm the new address.
5Use the client's routing rules if only some sites should go through the tunnel.

Other Chrome VPNs questions

Does incognito mode help? It stops local history from being saved, and nothing more.
Will a plugin beat a family filter? Often, for the browser only, and DNS leaks are common.
Chromebooks: a personal one can run an Android client. A school one blocks both routes.
Is it safe for online banking? Use a browser profile with no unknown plugins in it.
Two proxy tools running at once will fight each other. Run one.

The ledger

We keep no ledger of you, only of the key

Royal Key holds three things: a Telegram chat, the key sent to it and the date that key expires. No account sits behind them, so there is nothing for a log to attach to, and we never ask for a name, an email address or a phone number. It is a modest claim, and we prefer it to pretending that no jurisdiction could ever reach us.

Nothing on file
  • No account, email address or phone number
  • No record of the sites you visit
  • No connection times or IP addresses kept
  • No card details: you pay inside Telegram
  • No renewal and no charge you did not choose

At the counter

Asked at the counter

Is a Chrome VPN plugin a real VPN?

Usually it is a proxy for that browser alone.

Can it read my passwords?

A plugin with access to all sites can see whatever you type into pages.

Are free ones safe?

Some are, when they come from known providers. Several unknown ones have been caught selling browsing data.

Does Chrome follow the system proxy?

Yes, on Windows and on macOS.

Will the key work in a plugin?

No.

Does it slow Chrome down?

Hardly at all, with a nearby location.

Question not on the list?

The bot that cuts keys also answers questions. The setup section names the client to install.
