Privacy Policy

1. Scope and Sources of Data

This site uses static pages and has no account registration, email subscriptions, or comment forms. You do not need to submit your name, email address, phone number, or payment details to read the manual. This site does not provide proxy nodes. You are responsible for managing your own subscriptions and server details; obtain them from your service provider.

When your browser requests a page, the infrastructure hosting the site receives information needed to deliver it. This may include your IP address, request time, page path, response status, and browser identifier. These technical records are used to serve pages, diagnose access issues, and maintain operational security; they should not be confused with connection records within the app.

2. Analytics and How We Use It

This site uses analytics to understand how visitors read pages and use navigation. Records may include pages viewed, referral categories, device and browser types, and events such as clicking an App Store button. Button events help assess whether the download guide makes the App Store easy to find; they do not indicate that a purchase was completed.

Analytics are used primarily to identify broken links, improve the manual’s structure, and make it easier to read on mobile devices. This site does not ask you to submit subscription URLs, server passwords, or Apple Account details for analytics. Do not add this information to query parameters in site links, as it could be included in technical records with page requests.

This policy does not specify a fixed retention period for all records. How long different technical records are handled depends on their purpose and the configuration in use. Analytics should focus on aggregated reading trends and avoid treating an individual visit as evidence of identity or purchase intent.

3. Cookies and Local Storage

This site does not require login sessions. Whether analytics tools use cookies or local storage depends on the analytics configuration currently enabled. Your browser may also cache fonts, images, and stylesheets to reduce repeat requests. Cached files and account information are different types of data.

You can view, restrict, or clear this site’s cookies, local storage, and cache in your browser’s site data settings. Restricting related features may affect analytics completeness. After you clear the cache, your browser will request page resources again on your next visit. Clearing browser-side data does not delete technical records already created on the server.

Pages on this site cannot clear data stored under Apple’s or other services’ domains. Manage that data in the relevant site settings in your browser or in the privacy settings of the service concerned.

4. App Store Links and Purchase Scope

The only place to get Shadowrocket is the App Store product page. Apple operates that page. Account sign-in, payments, purchase history, and related data handling after you leave this site are governed by Apple’s terms and privacy policy. This site does not receive payment information or have access to your App Store purchase history.

A one-time purchase of the app is not a service plan. Buying the app and using a connection service of your choice are separate matters. Refer to the App Store page for compatibility, system requirements, and purchase availability. This policy covers data handling on this website only; it does not replace the privacy information applicable to the app or any connection service.

5. Policy Updates and Further Information

If this site changes how it handles data, uses analytics, or provides page features, the relevant terms will be updated here and the last-updated month at the top of the page will be revised. Changes that add a new purpose for collecting data or broaden its use should be explained before the relevant feature is enabled. An update to this page should not be understood as retroactive authorization for previous data handling.

For questions about website content and setup steps, see the user guide. For the App Store link and purchase verification, see the purchase verification section of the download guide. When reviewing or describing an issue, leave out subscription URLs, passwords, payment receipts, and other personally identifying information.
