Zone Jurisdiction Flags

• United Kingdom (UK): Strong disclosure resistance, moderate surveillance pressure, ideal for private tunnels
• European Union (EU): GDPR enforcement, jurisdiction accountability, well-suited for business infrastructure
• United States (US): Broad access, high surveillance surface, good for latency but not ideal for sensitive signals
• Singapore / Japan / HK: Performance-driven, mixed surveillance laws - sponsor approval recommended
• Fallback Zones: Deployed under Tier 3 override only - reflect minimum exposure environments

Routing Rules Based on Tier

• Tier 1: Auto-routed by signal location and sponsor policy with no manual control
• Tier 2: Choose region during config request and you can request overrides
• Tier 3: Full jurisdiction override dashboard to assign zones per signal type or user role

How Jurisdiction Impacts Privacy

• Some regions require tunnel logging or DNS disclosure by law
• EcoVPN nodes suppress these signals at infrastructure level but jurisdiction still matters
• UK/EU zones offer best protection for config integrity and passive signal defense

Deployment Recommendations

• Users handling sensitive work (e.g. journalists, whistleblowers, sysadmins) should prefer UK or EU zones
• Latency-sensitive tasks (e.g. remote work, streaming) may benefit from US or APAC nodes
• If unsure, let your sponsor pick - routing reflects your referral trust

“Every tunnel reflects its legal environment, privacy begins at the flag your signal flies under.”
