Back to School Must Haves for Your Kids Away at College -- Sign them Up Now for BullGuard VPN Personal Privacy Protection - Review and #Giveaway

Disclosure: I was sent a complimentary year's service of BullGuard VPN to try out, and help facilitate my review. All views shared are mine and mine alone.

It’s never been easier to have complete online privacy and total Internet freedom. 

BullGuard VPN gives you the flexibility to safely and securely access the Internet and online services from home, work or abroad.

As kids are returning back to school, many parents are finding themselves forgetting to talk to their college-aged kids about something very important...the dangers of cyber threats and invasions of privacy online.  I have been seeing so many friends and family posting on Facebook all the photos of them moving their kids into the dorms for the first time.  In every photo there is a compute or laptop present.  We live in a time where we all rely on electronics and gadgets for our day-to-day needs, including schooling for kids.  Heck, I use my computer not just for pulling together homeschool stuff for my girls, but also to blog, and even to stream videos and transfer files and documents for work and personal use.  But, like so many people, I forget about the real threats to my privacy when I power on my computer and log into my online email accounts, banking sites, etc.  And, because I am always on the go with my girls, I bring my laptop with me and connect remotely to free wi-fi and hotspot locations whenever I can.  These are the times that I need to be careful with how my personal information is being viewed or collected.  

So, when I was contacted recently by the folks at BullGuard VPN to try out their personal VPN service, I jumped at the opportunity.  Not only were they going to provide me with a free year's subscription, but they also offered to give five (5) of my readers a chance to enjoy BullGuard VPN  for a full year, too. Be sure to read on to learn how you can enter for a chance to win 1 of 5 BullGuard VPN  1-yr. subscriptions up for grabs. :-)

So what is BullGuard VPN  and why should you sign up for a subscription?

"BullGuard VPN is personal privacy protection. As millions of college students head back to school, protecting their online privacy is probably not at the top of their to do lists. Parents of these newly-minted adults are likely warning their children about the dangers of partying and walking on campus at night, but they may not consider teaching them - or be educated themselves on - the very real potential of cyber threats and invasions of privacy online. 

Top reasons to purchase a VPN:

• Using a https://www.bullguard.com is a great way to stream your favorite content while traveling to any country! You can access all of your favorite shows, movies and more any time, anywhere. Perfect for that study abroad trip or traveling back home for the holidays.
• Using a VPN protects you from connecting to the same unprotected network as multiple other users; these open Wi-Fi networks allow cybercriminals to easily distribute malicious software to everyone connected - in the blink of an eye.
• While it doesn’t cross many travelers minds on a regular basis, it’s actually really simple for hackers to set up a fake malicious network and pretend to be “Free SFO Airport Wi-Fi network” or “Coffee Shop Wi-Fi.” A personal VPN allows you to avoid putting yourself at risk while connecting to an unknown network. Don’t take the risk when you don’t have to!

As mentioned above, I was provided with a complimentary year's service of BullGuard VPN to try out, and to help with my review.  Usually I let my husband set up or download things like this as he is a computer programmer and knows his way around the computer and things.  But, after reading the easy to follow instructions on setting up the BullGuard VPN account, I wanted to give it a try myself.  I was surprised at how easy it was to set up the VPN account, which I put on my computer and my Android phone.  Within 10 minutes I was up and running and navigating the different features, to familiaize myself with all the BullGuard VPN has to offer.  I was amazed that I could provide protection to up to 6 devices with just one subscription.  This definitley comes in handy for families looking to protect their devices at home, on the go, and with kids away at school.

After installing BullGuard VPN, I feel more comfortable using my laptop and phone out and about, away from the house.  In the past, I would limit what sites I used and what information I shared through online forms, etc., as I was afraid my information would be comprised.  I have lost count on how many times I have had my credit card information stolen and needed to cancel accounts and put fraud locks on my accounts.  I chock all of these times up to having my information comprised while outside the house, and using unsecure connections.  But, I don't have to worry anymore, as I know BullGuard VPN has me covered, and is there to help me safely and securely access the Internet and other online services at home, work, and even abroad.  

So, with kids heading back to school, why not provide added protection to your family's devices at home and away at school and even work, by signing up for a BullGuard VPN subscription.  This is one of those services you don't think you need, but then realize that it is a must have, and feel foolish you went without it for so long.  I have been raving about BullGuard VPN with friends and family, and have opened their eyes to the need to protect your family , in a day and age where we all rely on our electronic devices and use the Internet and online services in our daily lives.
