Partnerships
A recommendation should be useful because it fits what you are doing, not because someone built a profile of you to sell.
Status: the browser placements described on this page are designed and agreed with the partner, and are not in a shipped release yet. They arrive in an upcoming version of PATANYX Browser. PATANYX Search partnerships are live today.
01 / How it works
A recommendation should not become a tracker.
The recommendation comes from the feature you opened, not a profile PATANYX built about you.
- 01You open a tool Private Tunnel, Vault, or another relevant PATANYX surface.
- 02PATANYX shows an option A partner may appear because it is relevant to that feature.
- 03Nothing is sent Simply seeing the recommendation does not contact the partner.
- 04You choose to click Only then does the referral leave PATANYX.
- What the partner knows before a click
- Nothing from the placement.
- Why you saw it
- The tool you opened.
- How PATANYX may benefit
- Commission on qualifying purchases.
02 / Where partners fit
Only where the connection makes sense.
The partner should answer a need PATANYX does not already solve in the same way.
Private Tunnel
Route PATANYX through a server you choose. Bring a WireGuard configuration from your own server or a compatible provider; nothing else on the computer is affected.
Need a managed VPN instead?
NordVPNA full VPN service can cover needs beyond the browser. The placement makes clear that it is an alternative service, not an importable PATANYX Tunnel configuration.
Prefer to bring your own configuration?
Private Internet AccessA managed VPN with an official WireGuard config for PATANYX's Private Tunnel.
Why this is here
- What PATANYX already does
- Browser-scoped WireGuard tunnel.
- What the partner adds
- Managed VPN infrastructure and apps beyond PATANYX.
- Why this placement exists
- The user is already thinking about network privacy.
- Partner contacted before click?
- No.
Vault
PATANYX Vault keeps passwords on your own computer. Nothing is synchronized to a PATANYX server, because there is no PATANYX server holding them.
Need passwords across devices?
NordPassA separate password service may make sense for someone who needs synchronization across devices. It is an alternative to Vault, not an add-on to it.
Why this is here
- What PATANYX already does
- Local, browser-scoped password storage.
- What the partner adds
- Synchronization across devices and platforms.
- Why this placement exists
- The user is already managing credentials.
- Partner contacted before click?
- No.
Deep Recall
Deep Recall helps you keep a private, searchable record of what you've seen online. But some online risks don't end when you close the page.
Need cover beyond the browser?
CoveronCoveron helps monitor for identity exposure, suspicious activity, and scams beyond the browser, for qualifying U.S. residents.
Why this is here
- What PATANYX already does
- An encrypted, on-device archive of pages you chose to keep.
- What the partner adds
- Monitoring and recovery for identity exposure beyond the browser.
- Why this placement exists
- The reader is deliberately keeping records that matter to them.
- Partner contacted before click?
- No.
Travel
PATANYX Search tells you what a country requires, what officials are warning about, and what the weather may look like when you arrive. Staying connected safely on an unfamiliar network is a separate travel need, one that comes with the trip, not something Search itself is meant to solve.
Live on PATANYX Search
NordVPN Private Internet Access Coveron, on U.S. destinationsA "For your trip" section sits at the foot of every destination page, after the official government guidance.
Why this is here
- What PATANYX already does
- Advisories, entry rules, and conditions for a destination.
- What the partner adds
- Network privacy away from home, and identity monitoring where eligible.
- Why this placement exists
- The reader is planning to be somewhere unfamiliar.
- Partner contacted before click?
- No.
03 / Current and planned
What do you need beyond PATANYX?
Organized around the reader's need, not around the corporate family behind the product.
Connection privacy
NordVPN
A managed VPN option for people who want protection beyond the browser, or who do not want to bring their own WireGuard configuration.
Planned · browserConnection privacy
Private Internet Access
A managed VPN service covering every app on the device, not only the browser. PIA publishes an official open-source WireGuard config generator, so with a PIA subscription you can create a configuration and import it into Private Tunnel.
Live · partnershipsPasswords across devices
NordPass
PATANYX Vault keeps passwords local. A separate password service may make sense for someone who needs synchronization across devices.
Planned · browserIdentity protection
Coveron
An optional identity-monitoring and recovery service where eligibility and context make the recommendation relevant. Available to eligible U.S. residents.
Live · search travel04 / The boundary
Some parts of PATANYX are not for sale.
- Privacy defaults A partner cannot pay to weaken, remove, or hide a core privacy protection.
- Feature design Affiliate compensation does not decide how a PATANYX feature behaves.
- Your activity Browsing history, searches, and individual activity are not handed to a partner to make a recommendation.
- Preference Paying PATANYX does not automatically make a product "best." Placement still has to make contextual sense.
05 / Funding
How PATANYX pays for itself
Much of the web is funded by attention, profiling, or data. PATANYX takes a different route. Its funding comes from three sources you can actually see, and none of them require turning your browsing into the product.
Disclosed partnerships
Relevant recommendations
When PATANYX points to a partner, the relationship is disclosed where the recommendation appears. If you choose to buy through a qualifying affiliate link, PATANYX may earn a commission.
The recommendation is there because it fits the feature or the need, not because PATANYX profiled you.
In useSponsorship
Back the browser directly
If PATANYX is useful to you, you can help fund its continued development directly.
No partner in the middle. No advertising profile. No data exchange. Just support for building and maintaining the browser.
Become a sponsorPremium
More capability. Same boundary.
PATANYX Premium is being built for people who want more from the browser.
When it launches, Premium will help fund continued development without changing the privacy bargain: you pay for additional features, not with your activity.
Coming soonWhat none of that changes.
However PATANYX is funded, these core principles hold.
