Privacy Policy | Clash Desktop

This policy applies to browsing clash-wind.com, reading its guides, and visiting its download links. This is a static content website with no account registration or email collection forms. Website visits and client software use involve separate data practices; this policy does not cover the behavior of clients, subscription providers, or network services after installation.

1. Website Data and Collection

When you browse a page, your browser sends a request to the website server. Technical information needed to serve pages, handle download requests, and diagnose issues may include your IP address, request time, page path, response status, browser type, and referring page. This information is generated by network requests and is not the same as identity details you submit yourself.

This site does not ask for your name, phone number, or email address, and does not collect client subscription links, proxy passwords, configuration files, or connection logs. Configuration examples in the guides are for reference only. Entering a subscription URL in a local client does not automatically send it to this website when you read a guide.

2. How Traffic Analytics Are Used

We use traffic analytics to understand page visits, referral sources, and download platform choices, helping us improve guide structure, find broken links, and make the site work better on mobile. Analytics may record pages visited, visit times, device and browser categories, referral information, and interactions such as clicks on download links. These results are used to understand overall usage, not to infer subscription contents.

Analytics services and server logs serve different purposes: analytics focus on how pages are used, while server logs support request handling and site maintenance. Do not add passwords, subscription URLs, or other sensitive information to page addresses or query parameters. If included in a request URL, they may be recorded as part of the request path. We do not specify a universal retention period on this page without confirmation.

3. Cookies and Local Storage

Analytics scripts may use cookies or similar browser identifiers to distinguish sessions and repeat visits. Whether they are stored, and for how long, depends on the analytics configuration, browser permissions, and privacy settings. Local storage is a browser-side storage mechanism, separate from server access logs, and should not be treated as a secure place for sensitive configuration data.

Use your browser's site data settings to view, restrict, or clear this site's cookies and local storage. You can also enable the browser's tracking protection. Blocking analytics scripts usually does not affect access to page content, but may make traffic statistics less complete. Clearing browser data does not remove logs already generated on the server or subscriptions and settings saved in a local client.

4. Downloads and Third-Party Links

Some links on this site lead to software project websites, app stores, or other third-party pages. After you follow a link, the destination may receive your IP address, browser information, and referring page, and handle that data under its own policies. We cannot control third-party storage settings, sign-in processes, or subsequent services. Read their privacy information before submitting any details.

Download requests may also be routed through infrastructure to file-hosting services. Choose installers from this site's download center or release channels recognized by the project, and check the destination domain, software name, and system architecture. If your operating system displays a security warning, verify the publisher and warning details first. Installing a client does not give this site access to its runtime data; refer to the relevant project documentation for details about permissions and data practices.

5. Policy Updates and Feedback

We may update this policy when website features, analytics settings, or download services change. The updated date will appear at the top of this page. Significant changes to the purpose or scope of data collection will be explained here. Since this site does not collect email addresses, policy changes are not sent individually by email. Check this page for the latest terms.

For questions about client permissions, connection issues, or configuration, start with the FAQ and user guide. When contacting a third-party project through its support channels, share only the information needed to diagnose the issue, and remove subscription URLs, credentials, personal domain names, and other sensitive details first. The third party's own policies govern how it handles feedback.
