Am I allowed to use a VPN with Steam? (lemm.ee)

Recently got a VPN because I've become increasingly paranoid (It's getting crazy out there), but.... is it a bannable offense to use it while on Steam?

I'm finding mixed answers, and I wanna be safe, so I figured the Fediverse might know.

You don't have to, your regional price is linked to your account's regional setting so that if you move you can legitimately change your region but VPN doesn't affect it at all.
