Get a French IP address, stream France.tv and Canal+, and browse privately whether you're in Paris or on the other side of the world.
Streaming, banking, and browsing all break when you leave France. Inside the country, ISPs are legally required to retain your IP address data, and ARCOM actively tracks peer-to-peer activity. A France VPN replaces your real IP with a French one and encrypts your connection so everything works the way it should.
France.tv, TF1+, Canal+, Arte, M6+, and Molotov all check your IP before letting you watch. A France VPN bypasses those geo-blocks instantly.
Banking with BNP Paribas, Société Générale, or Crédit Agricole, accessing government portals like impots.gouv.fr, and shopping on local e-commerce sites all work better when websites see a French IP.
Your connection is encrypted the moment you connect to public Wi-Fi at a Paris café, a Lyon airport lounge, or a Marseille co-working space.
A VPN encrypts your traffic so your provider (Orange, Free, SFR, Bouygues) can't selectively slow streaming or gaming during peak hours.
France.tv, TF1+, Canal+, Arte, and M6+ all restrict access when your IP leaves the country. Connect to a France VPN server and the full library comes back, including live Ligue 1 football and Roland-Garros coverage.
Hotel, airport, or café networks are soft targets. A VPN encrypts your traffic so no one on the same network can intercept what you're doing.
BBC iPlayer, HBO Max, and Hulu are all geo-restricted outside their home countries. Connect to a UK or US server through VPN Super and those platforms unlock from France.
French law requires ISPs to retain connection data including IP addresses and subscriber identity for one year under Decree n°2025-980, extended through October 2026. A VPN encrypts your connection, reducing what can be collected or shared.
Between ARCOM's copyright monitoring, mandatory ISP data retention, and new court orders requiring VPN providers to block piracy sites, French internet users have plenty of reasons to encrypt their connections. Getting started takes under a minute.

The Paris server sits inside one of Europe's most connected internet hubs, with strong peering to France's four main ISPs: Orange, Free, SFR, and Bouygues Telecom. That means low latency for French streaming platforms and consistent speeds for everyday browsing.
Leaving France usually means losing access to France.tv, TF1+, Canal+, Arte, M6+, and Molotov. Connect to VPN Super's France server and those platforms see a French IP instead.
Stream France.tv, Canal+, and TF1+ in full HD. VPN Super's French servers handle peak traffic during live Ligue 1 matches and Roland-Garros without dropping quality.
French streaming platforms actively detect and block VPN connections. VPN Super refreshes French server IPs regularly so you stay connected when other providers get flagged.
Open VPN Super, pick the Paris server, tap Connect. Your French streaming library loads like you never left.
Performance note: Premium servers are optimised for streaming in HD without buffering.
Most free VPNs either sell browsing data or run such small server networks that French platforms block them within days. Premium unlocks faster speeds, more locations, and multi-device coverage across Orange, Free, SFR, or Bouygues connections.

VPN Super encrypts your connection with AES-256, the same standard used by banks and governments. Your real IP is hidden, your data is encrypted, and your browsing stays between you and your screen.
French ISPs must retain connection metadata for one year under Decree n°2025-980, renewed annually. ARCOM taps this data to identify users flagged for P2P copyright infringement, sending millions of automated requests to ISPs each year.
A VPN encrypts your connection, adding a privacy layer that current legislation does not fully guarantee.
Stream France.tv, TF1+, Canal+, Arte, M6+, and Molotov from any country. Live Ligue 1, Roland-Garros, and Tour de France included.
BBC iPlayer is UK-only and Max (formerly HBO Max) is US-only. Connect to a UK or US server through VPN Super and both unlock from inside France
Hide your IP and encrypt your traffic. Your ISP, advertisers, and Wi-Fi snoops can't see what you're doing.
Some retailers and airlines show different prices by location. A French IP shows you local pricing.
Train stations, airport lounges, hotel lobbies. Connect to VPN Super before you do anything else.
impots.gouv.fr, Ameli, and banking apps (BNP Paribas, Société Générale, Crédit Agricole, LCL) can flag non-French IP addresses. One tap brings them back.
VPN Super works across all major platforms. Download the App, connect to a French server, and you're protected.
VPN Super is one of the most downloaded VPN apps in the world, with over 100 million installs across iOS and Android. That’s not a marketing number. That’s people choosing to connect, day after day.
The connection is fast, stable, and secure, and I never have trouble streaming or browsing. It’s super easy to use, with quick server connections and a simple interface. I really appreciate that it keeps my privacy protected without costing anything. Definitely one of the best VPNs I’ve ever tried — highly recommend!
Initially skeptical after using other apps like Orbot, Tor browser, Surfshark and others. This VPN is seemingly very stable with servers available for other countries and fast continual connectivity.
I’ve found this VPN to be really reliable and easy to use. The connection speed is fast, even when streaming or browsing on different servers, and switching locations only takes a few seconds. I also like the extra privacy and security it gives me when using public Wi-Fi. The app is simple to set up, and it runs smoothly in the background without slowing my device down. Overall, it’s a great option if you want both protection and convenience online.
Ready to get a VPN for France? Here's what to look for.
French streaming platforms actively detect VPN connections. VPN Super refreshes French server IPs and uses smart server selection to route you to a working connection in Paris automatically.
VPN Super offers a Free VPN with no strings attached, plus Premium Subscriptions in 1-month, 6-month, and 12-month tiers. No hidden charges, no auto-renewal traps.
With one-year ISP data retention in force through October 2026 and ARCOM processing millions of IP identification requests annually, French privacy protection has more layers of complexity than most users realise. VPN Super delivers a no-activity-logs policy, AES-256 encryption, and trusted protocols (OpenVPN, IKEv2, WireGuard).
Yes, completely legal. No French law prohibits VPN use. France's National Assembly has discussed evaluating VPN usage in the context of age verification for social media, but no restrictions have been proposed as of March 2026. Any activity illegal without a VPN stays illegal with one.
Open VPN Super, tap the globe icon, scroll to France, pick Paris, and tap Connect. Wait for the green shield. It takes about five seconds.
Most free VPNs have small networks that French platforms block quickly, and some log and sell your data. VPN Super's Free VPN includes French servers, AES-256 encryption, and unlimited bandwidth with no credit card required.
France.tv geo-restricts most of its content to French IP addresses. Open VPN Super, connect to Paris, then visit france.tv and browse normally. If the geo-block persists, clear your browser cookies. Most on-demand content works immediately after connecting.
BBC iPlayer is restricted to UK IP addresses. Open VPN Super, connect to a UK server, then visit bbc.co.uk/iplayer and sign in. If you see a location error, clear cookies and try a different UK server. You'll need a BBC account (free to create with a UK postcode).
Canal+ checks your IP and blocks non-French connections. Connect to VPN Super's Paris server, then open the Canal+ app or visit canalplus.com and sign in with your existing subscription. If access is still blocked, clear your cookies and retry. Canal+ has been at the forefront of anti-piracy VPN blocking orders in France, but these target specific piracy domains, not the ability to use a VPN for legitimate streaming access.
ARCOM's graduated response system monitors peer-to-peer networks, captures IP addresses, and requests subscriber identity from ISPs. A VPN replaces your real IP with the server's IP, so ARCOM's systems can't link activity to your connection. Note that ARCOM only tracks P2P file-sharing, not streaming or direct downloads.
Connecting to the Paris server from within France typically adds only 2 to 8ms of latency. VPN Super's Premium servers support up to 10Gbps, and many users see more consistent speeds because the VPN prevents traffic-type throttling. WireGuard offers the lowest overhead for gaming and video calls.
We're confident you'll love the speed, security, and freedom VPN Super gives you. But if you're not completely satisfied, no worries—just reach out within 30 days and we'll give you a full refund. No hassle. No questions asked. Total peace of mind.
