Privacy Policy

1. Scope and data collection

This is a static content site. It does not offer account registration, ask for your email address, or collect subscription links, server passwords, configuration files, or QR codes through its pages. You can read the tutorials without submitting any of this information. Examples in the documentation are for understanding the steps only; do not replace them with real credentials and send them to this site.

When your browser requests a page, image, or installer, the server may log your IP address, request time and path, response status, and device information provided by your browser. These technical logs help deliver content, diagnose access errors, and handle unusual requests. Page view records are not the same as proxy connection logs from the client app, and this policy does not treat them as the same thing.

2. Site and installer download analytics

Site analytics help us understand page views, referral sources, device categories, and clicks on download links. We use this information to improve the documentation, find broken links, and assess download availability. If you click through to the App Store product page, the site may record that visit. This event does not include Apple Account information and cannot confirm whether a purchase was completed.

Installers are served from the site's /dl/ path. The server may aggregate download request counts, file types, and response results. Repeated clicks, retries, and resumable downloads can generate multiple requests, so download counts do not represent unique users or successful installations. Analytics and logs are used only to operate the site, improve its content, and troubleshoot issues. Access should be limited to people responsible for this work.

3. Cookies and browser storage

Reading static page content does not require account cookies. Analytics scripts may use cookies or browser storage to distinguish sessions and reduce duplicate counts. You can review the specific data in your browser's site data settings. Page menus, section links, and device detection are used for display and navigation; they do not require you to submit real server details.

You can use your browser settings to restrict cookies, clear this site's data, or block analytics scripts. This may affect analytics accuracy or the retention of some preferences, but you can still access the documentation and download guides. Clearing this site's browser data does not remove configurations stored in the Shadowrocket app. Manage app data using the relevant features within the app.

4. App Store and downloads from this site

The iPhone / iPad version costs $2.99 as a one-time App Store purchase. The Mac (Apple Silicon and Intel), Windows, Android, and Linux versions are free. See the download guide for platform-specific options. Installers on this site are served from /dl/shadowrocket/.

The Shadowrocket App Store product page is operated by Apple. After you follow the link, Apple handles account, payment, and purchase records under its own terms and privacy policies. This site does not receive payment card details. For iPhone / iPad system requirements, refer to the App Store page.

A one-time app purchase does not include a proxy service plan. Keep subscription and server details under your own control. When troubleshooting, do not expose full subscription URLs or authentication details in URL parameters, public text, or screenshots.

5. Policy updates and issue reports

If analytics purposes, data handling, or download services change, this page will be revised and the month shown at the top will be updated. Significant changes to data handling will also be explained on relevant pages. Refer to the current page; do not treat old screenshots or cached copies as current guidance.

For help checking a procedure or troubleshooting page behavior, see the user guide and installation instructions. When describing an issue, include only the relevant error message, device category, and steps to reproduce it. Do not include account or payment details, subscription credentials, or a complete configuration.
