Does Proton track its own VPNs? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

See title. A bit of a dumb question, but given my threat model, I'm curious if it's maybe strategically better to not rely on Proton for their VPN. If I rely too much on one provider, I think that that's not a good idea.

They do not track anything on their VPN servers, at least not according the the audits I've heard about.
