Since 2011, Deflect has protected thousands of independent media outlets, human rights defenders, and civil society organizations around the world. Our goal will always be to keep this protection accessible to those who need it most, without compromising privacy or independence. Deflect will never sell your data and remains one of the few non-commercial protection services on the internet.
We are committed to ensuring that Deflect stays free for qualifying non-profits and individuals whose work advances human rights, democracy, or community well-being. To keep this possible, we now encourage organizations with the capacity to pay to choose a paid plan. Your contribution directly supports free protection for others who rely on Deflect to stay online.
By paying for Deflect, you are helping sustain an independent, privacy-first infrastructure that exists for the public good and keeps the open web resilient.
