Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 2026

This policy describes data processing that may occur when you visit Clash Chinese Official Site. The site provides static pages with download links for Clash clients, protocol documentation, and configuration tutorials. It does not offer user accounts or require an email address, name, or other registration information.

1. Scope of Data Collection

You can browse the site's public content without registering or signing in. The site does not provide comments, direct messages, online payments, or personal-profile uploads, so it does not actively collect account passwords, contact details, identity documents, payment information, or proxy configuration data. Tutorials and download pages also do not require subscription URLs, node information, or local configuration files.

To keep the site running, the server may generate routine technical logs while processing requests. These generally include the request time, requested path, browser type, device category, referring page, response status, and address information processed at the network layer. This data is used to detect unusual requests, diagnose page errors, improve mobile compatibility, and maintain service reliability. It is not used to build user profiles that identify specific individuals.

2. Analytics and Purpose of Use

The site uses analytics tools to understand overall page usage, such as page views, traffic sources, broad device and browser categories, time spent on pages, and events triggered when users switch download-platform tabs. Results help determine which client guides, protocol resources, and Troubleshooting content need improvement, and help identify broken links, loading problems, and layout compatibility issues.

Analytics is primarily used for aggregate analysis and does not require users to provide their real identities. The site does not email users based on analytics results, nor use visit records for automated credit decisions, differential pricing, or personalized marketing. Server logs and aggregated statistics are retained only as needed for site operations, troubleshooting, and necessary security reviews, then cleared or consolidated according to maintenance procedures.

3. Cookies and Local Storage

The site's main content and navigation do not depend on account cookies. Analytics tools may use cookies or similar browser identifiers to distinguish return visits, prevent duplicate counts, and produce anonymized session statistics. Your browser may also store small amounts of interface state, such as your most recently selected download platform, language path, or expanded navigation state, so the page can preserve a reasonable experience after refreshing.

This browser data does not contain Clash subscription content, proxy nodes, account credentials, or configurations edited by users. You can restrict or clear cookies and site data through your browser settings. The pages will remain accessible, but saved preferences such as platform selection may return to their defaults. Private browsing, blocking extensions, or strict tracking protection may limit analytics without affecting normal access to the static documents.

4. Third-Party Links and Download Redirects

The site provides links to official client websites, app stores, open-source project pages, and download resources. After you click one of these links, you leave clashsecure.com and enter the relevant third-party service. Any subsequent data collection, file distribution, account requirements, and privacy practices are governed by that third party's own policies. The site cannot control its page content or data practices.

Before downloading, check the client name, target operating system, processor architecture, and file extension listed on the page, and preferably use the links clearly identified on the site's download pages. App-store installation may also be subject to store accounts, device-region settings, and platform terms. If a third-party page requests personal information beyond what installation requires, read its privacy policy and decide for yourself whether to continue. External links are provided only for reference or download navigation and do not mean that this site assumes responsibility for a third party's data processing.

5. Policy Updates and Feedback

This policy may change when the site's features, analytics methods, storage mechanisms, or applicable rules change. Updated text will be published on this page, and the month shown at the top as the last update will be revised. If a change materially affects the scope of data processing, the site will provide an appropriate notice in a prominent page message. When you continue browsing, the version published at that time applies.

For information about importing clients, system proxies, TUN mode, or configuration files, see the Quick Start Tutorial. If the page description does not match actual behavior, first follow the Troubleshooting steps in the tutorial to identify which parts involve the browser, local client, or third-party service. This Privacy Policy page does not collect feedback forms or contact details, avoiding the creation of additional personal-information records.
