PRIVACY POLICY

Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2026

This policy explains how data is handled when you browse the Shadowrocket Manual website and clarifies what applies to website content, app use, and purchases through the App Store.

1. Scope and service boundaries

This is the official Shadowrocket website and manual, with guidance on verifying purchases, importing configurations, settings, and troubleshooting. This policy applies to browsing this website and related analytics. It does not replace the privacy information provided with the app or on the App Store.

Shadowrocket is a paid app for Apple platforms and is available exclusively through the App Store. A one-time app purchase is not a subscription to a proxy service. This website does not provide, sell, or recommend servers or subscriptions. Tutorials assume you already have your own subscription or server details.

2. Website data collection

This is a static documentation website with no account registration, email signup, or configuration upload form. You can read the documentation without submitting your name, contact details, payment information, server passwords, or subscription URLs. Showing a tutorial does not give the website access to configurations stored in the app.

When you visit the website, the hosting service may generate essential request logs, such as the time of access, requested path, response status, IP address, and device information supplied by your browser. These logs support page delivery, maintenance, and troubleshooting. Do not include passwords, access tokens, or full subscription URLs in query parameters on this website.

3. Analytics and how data is used

We use analytics to understand how visitors read and navigate the documentation. Analytics may include pages viewed, referral categories, browser and device categories, and clicks on App Store links in the getting-the-app guide. This helps us assess whether navigation is clear and which explanations may need improvement.

A click on a store link only indicates that you chose to open the product page. It does not confirm a purchase and does not include order totals or payment details. Analytics are not used to determine your configurations or connection activity. Operational logs and analytics data should be kept only as needed for maintenance and deleted or aggregated when no longer needed. This policy does not promise an unverified fixed retention period.

4. Cookies and local storage

This website does not use cookies for account sign-in. Whether analytics writes cookies, how long they last, and which browser storage items are used depend on the analytics configuration in use and your browser settings. Static pages may still generate storage records during a visit. Documentation anchors or option states may also be saved in the URL.

You can view, restrict, or clear this website’s cookies and local storage in your browser’s site data settings. Restricting these records may affect analytics continuity; clearing them may reset some reading preferences. You can continue reading the static documentation without creating an account. Your browser manages its cache and history separately.

5. App Store links

The store link in the getting-the-app guide opens the Shadowrocket App Store product page. Apple operates that page. Once you open it, your page activity, account sign-in, payments, purchase history, and refund requests are subject to Apple’s applicable terms and privacy policy.

This website does not receive your Apple Account password, payment details, or proof of purchase. Before buying, verify the developer, Shadow Launch Technology Limited, and app ID 932747118 on the store page. Price, system requirements, compatibility, and purchase availability are as listed on the App Store page.

6. Policy updates and questions

If website features, analytics purposes, or data handling practices change, this policy will be revised on this page and the last-updated month at the top will be changed. Changes involving new data uses should be explained where the relevant feature is offered. Refer to the policy shown when you visit the page.

To tell whether an issue concerns website access or app connectivity, first see the Getting Started guide for setup and troubleshooting. Cover subscription URLs, passwords, and access tokens when diagnosing issues. This website does not ask you to submit these details publicly, and sensitive configuration information is never required to read the documentation.
