Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 2026
This policy applies to browsing clash-lite.com, using site features, and accessing download links. Clash Picks provides client-selection guides and setup information as a static content website. Data handling by clients and external websites is covered by their respective privacy policies.
1. Information We Collect
This site does not offer account registration, email subscriptions, or profile submission, and does not ask for your name, email address, or phone number. You can read our guides without submitting subscription links, proxy nodes, configuration files, or logs. Showing configuration examples does not give the site access to the actual settings on your device.
When you visit a page, request version information, or download a file, the server receives the network information needed to fulfill the request, such as your IP address, request path, time, browser identification, and response status. Whether referral information is sent depends on your browser and the referring website's settings. This information may be recorded in service logs to diagnose issues, identify unusual requests, and deliver resources.
Do not put real subscription URLs, passwords, or access credentials in query parameters on this site. Request URLs may be logged by the server or saved in your browser history.
2. Analytics and How We Use Data
We use website analytics to understand page views, referral sources, device categories, and client platform choices. This helps us decide which guides need more detail, identify obstacles in the user journey, and check how pages work on different screen sizes. Analytics are not used to generate proxy configurations.
If you actively switch the download platform, the page may record that selection as an event. This reflects an action on the website; it does not confirm that an app was installed or a connection succeeded. Our analytics do not reveal which nodes you select in a client, your proxy traffic, or browsing activity in other apps.
Logs and analytics data should be accessed only by personnel who need them to maintain the site, troubleshoot issues, or improve its content. We do not sell this data as a list of user names. Retention periods depend on the deployment configuration, so we do not promise a fixed number of days without verification.
3. Cookies and Local Storage
Analytics may use cookies or browser storage to distinguish visits and repeat visits. Whether data is actually stored depends on the analytics configuration and your browser permissions. You do not need a login cookie to use site navigation, jump to sections, or read articles.
Local storage stays in your current browser; it is not the same as submitting personal information to a server. We do not use it to store proxy passwords or subscription content. Clearing site data may reset preferences saved in your browser and cause analytics to treat a later visit as a new session.
You can restrict cookies, clear this site's data, or use a content blocker in your browser's privacy or site permission settings. Blocking analytics scripts generally will not affect article reading, but restricting other scripts may affect navigation, platform switching, or updated download links.
4. Downloads and Third-Party Links
Client websites, app stores, and other external resources are operated by third parties. When you open one of these links, the third party may receive your IP address, browser information, and referral information, and may use cookies under its own policies. This privacy policy does not replace the third party's terms or control how it handles data afterward.
Some downloads are delivered through a file proxy, which may process the request URL and necessary network information. Check the destination domain, app name, and supported platform before downloading. During installation, review the publisher and permission prompts shown by your system.
Importing a subscription, authorizing a network extension, or connecting to a proxy service after installation is handled by the client and service provider. Do not submit subscription content through this website. For instructions, see the quick-start guide.
5. Policy Updates and Support
If our data uses, analytics methods, or browser storage practices change, we will update this page and revise the update date at the top. Changes apply from the time they are published and will not retroactively broaden the purposes for which previously collected data was used. We do not send policy updates by email, so please revisit this page when needed.
For browser permissions, subscription imports, or system proxy settings, start with the subscription import guide and system proxy instructions. These pages provide instructions; they are not channels for submitting personal information. For issues involving third-party accounts, app store orders, or proxy service data, use the relevant provider's support or privacy settings.
