Privacy Policy
We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how ClashFlag handles access data and our specific commitments to user safety.
Policy Overview
ClashFlag (hereinafter "this site") recognizes the importance of privacy for every user. As a technical platform for Clash-related information and client downloads, our core commitment is to minimize data collection and maximize user privacy protection.
We do not collect names or personal identifiers; we do not track individual browsing habits; we do not sell or lease user data; we do not use behavioral tracking ads; we do not require registration or login.
We only collect anonymous technical data required for website operation; we encrypt all pages via HTTPS; we comply with data protection laws; and we regularly review this privacy policy.
Data Collection Scope
When visiting this site, our servers or third-party infrastructure may automatically log the following anonymous technical information, which cannot be used to identify you personally:
- Access Logs: Page URL, timestamp, and HTTP status codes used to troubleshoot technical issues.
- IP Addresses: Automatically logged for security (preventing bots and DDoS attacks); not linked to individual identity and logs are purged regularly.
- Browser Information: User-Agent strings (browser type, OS version) used to optimize compatibility without tracking specific users.
- Referral Source: Referrer information used to understand traffic sources in an aggregated statistical format.
- Download Statistics: The number of times a client has been downloaded (aggregated totals) without identifying who downloaded what file.
How We Use Data
The limited anonymous data we collect is used solely for the following purposes and is never used for commercialization or individual tracking:
Monitoring server health and intercepting malicious requests to ensure site stability.
Understanding which client versions and platforms are most popular to optimize our content and download experience.
Automatically redirecting to the correct language version based on your browser preferences.
Cookie Policy
Our use of cookies follows a minimalist principle: we do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
- Language Preference (localStorage): Remembers your chosen language on your device so we can display it next time you visit. This data is not sent to our servers.
- CDN Technical Cookies: Necessary technical cookies set by providers like Cloudflare for load balancing and DDoS protection. These do not contain personal info.
Information Sharing
We do not sell, lease, or exchange any of your data. Limited data flow may only occur in the following circumstances:
This site is hosted by third-party cloud and CDN providers who may access server logs while providing their services, under strict data handling agreements.
If required by law or judicial process, we will comply with applicable regulations and notify users where permitted by law.
Data Security Measures
We use multi-layered security measures to protect the site and user data:
- Site-wide HTTPS Encryption: Forced TLS encryption on all pages to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks and eavesdropping.
- DDoS Protection: Automated filtering of malicious traffic via CDN to ensure a reliable visitor experience.
- Minimal Log Retention: Server access logs are automatically cleared after a technical necessity period.
- File Integrity: All downloads are direct links; you can verify SHA256 hashes via official GitHub releases to ensure files haven't been modified.
Your Rights
Since we do not collect PII, you do not need to worry about account data, personal profiles, or behavioral tracking. All visits are anonymous.
If you wish to:
- Clear Local Storage: You can clear cookies and localStorage in your browser settings at any time to remove any preference data saved on your device.
- Block Cookies: You can block third-party cookies in your privacy settings without losing access to core site features.
- Anonymous Access: Use your browser's Incognito or Private mode to visit this site without leaving local history.
Protection of Minors
This site is intended for adult users with a technical background. We do not actively collect information from minors, nor is any content designed specifically for them.
Since there is no registration or personal data collection, there is no technical risk of data harvesting for minors. If in doubt, please use the site under the guidance of a guardian.
Third-Party Links
This site contains links to third-party websites like GitHub. These open with target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" to ensure no information is passed from this site.
Third-party sites have their own privacy policies. We recommend reviewing them, as we are not responsible for their data practices.
Links to GitHub repositories are subject to GitHub's own terms and privacy policies, which are separate from this site.
We use Google Fonts for 'Inter' and Cloudflare for 'Font Awesome.' These requests may be logged anonymously by those providers as technical logs.
Policy Updates
We may update this policy periodically to reflect site changes or legal requirements. Updated versions are posted here with a new 'Last Updated' date.
We recommend checking this page regularly. Continued use of the site implies acceptance of the current policy. Since we don't collect contact info, we cannot notify you directly of changes.
