Privacy Policy

1. Data collected by this website

Do I need to register to read the manual? No. This is a static content website with no user accounts, email subscriptions, or submission forms. You do not need to provide your name, email address, payment details, or app connection credentials. You can read tutorials and rule examples without uploading your configuration.

What information is logged when I visit? The website hosting infrastructure may process IP addresses, request times, page paths, response status codes, and browser request information to deliver pages, handle errors, and maintain security. These technical logs support page delivery, troubleshooting, and security maintenance; they are not records of in-app network activity.

Does this website receive connection details? No. This website does not provide, sell, or recommend nodes or subscriptions. Related tutorials assume you already have your own subscription or server details. Do not enter real subscription URLs, passwords, or configurations containing credentials in website addresses, query parameters, or other public locations.

2. How website analytics are used

Why use website analytics? Analytics help us understand page readership, referral sources, device categories, and common access errors so we can improve navigation, clarify guidance, and check page availability. Analytics focus on aggregate content and usage patterns; they are not used to create purchase accounts or process payments.

Which actions may be counted? Page views and clicks on the App Store button on the download information page may be recorded. A button click indicates that a user opened the product page; it does not mean they purchased or installed the app or completed a connection. It does not reveal Apple Account or order details.

How can I limit unnecessary exposure? Avoid adding personal information to page links when visiting the site. Analytics and technical logs should be handled only as needed to maintain the website. Their specific retention depends on the actual deployment configuration; this policy does not claim that all records share a single retention period.

3. Cookies and local storage

What does your browser store? During normal visits, the browser cache stores static resources. Whether cookies or local storage are used depends on which analytics and preference features are enabled. They are limited to visit recognition, analytics deduplication, or saving interface preferences; they are not used to store subscription credentials or payment details.

How can I review and manage storage? Check this website’s cookies, cache, and local storage in your browser’s site data settings, then delete or restrict them as needed. Clearing data may reset preferences or change analytics recognition results, but you do not need to provide personal information to read the public manual. Browser privacy restrictions may also prevent some analytics from being recorded.

4. App Store links and purchases

What rules apply when I leave this website? The only way to get Shadowrocket is through the App Store product page, which is operated by Apple. Apple’s terms and privacy policies govern visits, sign-ins, payments, and purchase records. This website does not receive payment details or Apple Account passwords.

Does the one-time app purchase include connection services? No. Buying the client once is not the same as buying a service plan. Purchasing the app and using services you already have are separate matters. Device compatibility, system requirements, and purchase eligibility are as listed on the App Store page; information on this website does not change the store’s terms of sale.

5. Policy updates and questions

How is this policy updated? If website features or data handling practices change, we will revise the relevant terms on this page and update the month shown at the top. If a new data collection purpose is introduced, a clear explanation should be provided when the relevant feature is enabled. Reading an earlier version of this policy does not constitute acceptance of an undisclosed new purpose.

Where should I look first if I have a question? Visit Troubleshooting for information about purchase and usage boundaries, or follow the tutorial to check the steps. Before troubleshooting, remove personal information from screenshots, links, and configurations. For information about the app’s own data handling, refer to the App Store privacy details and relevant in-app disclosures.
