Traveling to Australia and value your privacy? PikaSim provides anonymous eSIM service for Australia with reduced metadata retention, protection from mandatory telecommunications data logging, and privacy-first connectivity across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and beyond.
Why Choose Anonymous Connectivity in Australia

Protect Location Privacy
Australian metadata laws require logging of cell tower connections, creating detailed location history. Anonymous eSIM minimizes location tracking scope.
Reduce Digital Footprint
Australian carriers must log IP addresses, connection times, and service usage. International eSIM reduces the breadth of mandatory data collection.
Tourist Privacy Protection
Visiting Australia temporarily? Avoid creating 2-year retained metadata records linked to your passport and visa entry documentation.
