Does EE cyber security provide a VPN when abroad?

I am currently in Canada for a couple of weeks and when I joined the hotel’s secure network a VPN appeared in the settings that keeps turning itself back on every time I connect to Wi-Fi, and there appears to be no way to delete it. I am not aware that I had signed up for this and don’t want to find that I am being charged for it or find out it is something sinister. I am not using my phone except through Wi-Fi whilst I’m away.
Anyone have any experience of this? Any help would be much appreciated. Pauline

@Paulinemiller12 : When you are using WiFi it has nowt to do with EE & you are not using its mobile network. The VPN must be a layer of security in your hotel’s secure network.
