This page explains how Clash CN Download ("this site") handles visitor data while providing Clash client downloads and setup tutorials. This site is purely static content — every page renders directly in the visitor's browser. There is no account system and no server-side user database of any kind.
Scope of Data Collection
This site has no registration, login, comment, subscription, or any feature that requires submitting personal information. Visitors can browse every page and access download links without providing a name, email address, phone number, or any other identifying detail. Reading tutorials, switching platform tabs, and clicking download buttons all happen anonymously. This site does not have, and does not maintain, any database containing personal user records.
Purpose of Visit Analytics
To understand how each page performs and decide which content needs updating first, this site runs a self-hosted analytics system. The data collected is limited to anonymized technical information: the page visited and the time of the visit, an approximate geographic region (accurate to country or region level), browser and operating system type, screen size, and the referring page. These results are used only to improve site content and structure — they are never sold or shared with any third party, and are never used to identify or track a specific individual. This system does not read files on your device and does not collect records of your activity on other websites.
Cookies and Local Storage
This site uses a small amount of cookies and local storage (localStorage) in the visitor's browser for purposes including: remembering the preferred interface language; retaining the selected platform tab on the download page so it returns to the last viewed platform on the next visit; and generating an anonymous identifier through the analytics system to distinguish unique visitors. All of this data is stored only on the visitor's own device and cannot be used to reconstruct a personal identity. Visitors can clear cookies and site data at any time through browser settings; doing so does not affect page reading or downloads — only interface preferences will reset to default.
Third-Party Links and Downloads
Pages on this site contain links to third-party sites, including official client project websites, app store pages (such as the Apple App Store), and client installer distribution addresses; the download page lists the corresponding clients and distribution channels for each platform. These sites are managed independently by their own operators, and their data practices are not covered by this policy — it's recommended to review a third-party site's own privacy policy before using its services. When a client download is initiated through a link on this site, the file transfer takes place directly between the visitor and the distributor; this site does not intervene in that transfer and does not log which specific file a visitor downloaded.
Updates to This Policy
This site reserves the right to revise this policy as needed. When the policy changes, the full text of this page will be updated directly and the "Last updated" date at the top will be revised accordingly; significant changes to how data is handled will be highlighted prominently on this page. Visitors are encouraged to check this page periodically for the latest version.
Questions and Feedback
This site does not publish a public contact email. If you run into issues installing, configuring, or using a Clash client, check the tutorials page and troubleshooting page first, which cover solutions for most common problems; for feature requests or bug reports related to the client software itself, please submit them directly through the official channels of the relevant client project.
