By using the web-proxy you accept the web-proxy policies
01 What Is Proxyium?
When you visit a website directly, that site sees your real IP address — your digital location. Proxyium sits between you and that site. Your browser talks to Proxyium, Proxyium fetches the page, and sends it back to you. The destination site sees Proxyium's IP, not yours.
This makes Proxyium useful for three things: bypassing geo-restrictions, unblocking sites restricted by your network (school, office, country), and adding a basic layer of privacy to your browsing session.
Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge — desktop or mobile. Open the site and start browsing immediately.
Your connection to Proxyium's servers is SSL-encrypted, even for sites that don't have HTTPS.
No account, no download, no setup. Paste the URL and go — works in under 5 seconds.
Ad-supported and completely free. No hidden paywalls for the core proxy function.
02 How Does Proxyium Work?
The flow is: Your device → Proxyium server → Target website → Proxyium server → Your device. Your ISP or network admin sees traffic going to Proxyium. They cannot see which specific sites you are browsing through it.
The four server locations explained
Proxyium offers servers in four locations. The best choice depends on where you are and what content you're trying to access:

04 What Can Proxyium Unblock?

| Website / Service | Works? | Notes |

09 Troubleshooting Common Issues
Your ISP or network may be blocking the domain. Try changing your DNS to Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 or Google 8.8.8.8 in your router or device settings. This often resolves the issue immediately.
Switch to the server geographically closest to your location. Avoid the US server if you're in Asia or Africa. For video, try a different server — load varies by time of day.
Open an incognito/private browser window, clear cookies, and try again. Some sites use scripts that don't render cleanly through a proxy by design.
Make sure you enter the full URL including https://. Avoid shortened URLs (bit.ly, t.co) — enter the final destination URL directly.
Disable Chrome's Data Saver or Lite Mode — it compresses pages before the proxy can render them. Go to Chrome Settings → Lite Mode → Off.
Some sites detect proxy traffic and disable logins as a security measure. For these sites, a residential VPN will work where a web proxy cannot.
