This policy applies to the Simplified Chinese site at clashplugin.com and its public pages. The site provides static documentation with download links for Clash clients, installation guides, rule and configuration references, and troubleshooting information. By visiting or continuing to use the site, you acknowledge the scope of data handling described here. If you continue through a third-party website, app store, or download service, that service's own privacy rules apply.
1. Scope and Account Information
This site does not offer account registration, comments, online submissions, paid subscriptions, or email subscriptions, and it does not ask visitors to provide their name, email address, phone number, identity documents, or payment details. Guides, terminology references, and download indexes can be viewed directly. The site does not create personal profiles intended to identify individual visitors, nor does it collect configuration files, subscription URLs, proxy nodes, or device network records through page forms.
When troubleshooting an issue, visitors should first remove subscription URLs, authentication fields, node details, and local paths from logs before deciding whether to share them with the relevant client project or service provider. This site has no channel for receiving private configurations or account information.
2. Visitor Analytics and Purposes
This site uses first-party analytics to record page visits. The process may handle the request time, page visited, referring page, browser category, device type, screen size, operating system, language settings, and a truncated or anonymized network address. This information helps determine whether documentation is easy to find, whether pages display properly across devices, whether download-platform labels are being used, and which installation or troubleshooting topics need more coverage.
Analytics are reviewed as overall trends and at the page level. They are not used to build advertising profiles, verify user identities, or read client configurations. To maintain site availability and investigate unusual requests, the server may retain access logs briefly as part of routine operations. Logs are used only for operations, security analysis, and error diagnosis, and are periodically deleted according to actual maintenance needs.
3. Cookies and Local Storage
Basic document browsing on this site does not depend on login cookies. Where permitted by the browser, the analytics component may set an identifier to distinguish browsing sessions and avoid counting the same visit repeatedly. Browser scripts may also use session storage or local storage to retain interface state, such as the selected download platform, dismissed notices, or page interaction preferences.
This data remains in the visitor's browser and does not contain Clash subscription content, proxy credentials, or node configurations. Visitors can restrict cookies through their browser settings or clear this site's cookies, site data, and local storage. After clearing them, interface options such as platform labels may return to their defaults, while the public documentation remains available.
4. Third-Party Links and Download Sources
Some pages link to app stores, official client websites, open-source project pages, or download distribution paths. After a link is clicked, the request is handled by the relevant third-party service; that service may record visit, download, account, or device information under its own privacy policy. This site cannot control third parties' log-retention periods, regional rules, or data practices. Review the terms published on the destination page before proceeding.
Before downloading, check the address-bar domain, client name, operating system, processor architecture, and installer file extension, and confirm that the publisher information matches the selected client's documentation. If a redirect behaves unexpectedly, the filename does not match the download card, or the browser displays a source warning, stop the installation and return to this site's download page to choose the entry point again. Do not enter subscription URLs, account credentials, or device passwords on pages of uncertain origin.
5. Data Retention and Security Boundaries
This site processes relevant technical information only for as long as needed for analytics, operations, and troubleshooting. Retention periods for analytics and server logs may change based on system capacity, security incidents, and operational requirements. Data no longer needed for maintenance is deleted or aggregated into statistics that cannot be linked to an individual visit.
Internet transmission and third-party services each have their own security boundaries. Visitors should keep their browser and operating system up to date, avoid storing sensitive configurations on shared devices, and remove subscription links, authorization fields, local network addresses, usernames, and similar details before sharing troubleshooting screenshots or logs.
6. Policy Updates and Feedback
This policy may be revised when page features, analytics methods, browser-storage mechanisms, or applicable rules change. The updated text will be published on this page, and the last-updated month at the top will be changed accordingly. Significant changes to the scope of data handling will be clearly explained near the relevant feature. Continuing to visit the updated page means that you have reviewed the current version.
For questions about client installation, importing subscriptions, or network configuration, start with Quick Start and Troubleshooting Manual. These pages provide public procedures and troubleshooting steps without requiring personal information. Issues involving third-party clients, app stores, or download services should be handled through the support channels published by the relevant service.
