Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how the mobile application provided by 1CNY VPN (the 'App') handles personal information. We collect and use data according to necessity, transparency, and minimization principles, and we protect your privacy within the scope of this policy.

When you download and launch the App, the system may collect necessary operational data, including your Internet Protocol (IP) address, device operating system version, in-app access paths, crash logs, and session duration. To provide more stable global connectivity, we may process approximate device location information. This data is used for: 1. Node recommendations: suggesting suitable routes based on 1CNY VPN's node distribution; 2. Performance optimization: identifying regional connection issues through anonymized aggregate data; 3. Service communication: sending important updates, security notices, or plan information through your registered email or username.

We only transmit aggregated or anonymized data to necessary third-party service providers, such as Google Play Services and Firebase, for crash analysis, statistics, and feature improvement. Except in the following cases, we do not share your personal information: 1. Compliance with legal process or regulatory requirements; 2. Protection of user safety or investigation of fraud; 3. Cooperation with entrusted service providers bound by confidentiality obligations. If you wish to stop data collection, remove the App through your device's standard uninstall process.

User-provided data is retained during the service period and for a reasonable period afterward. If you need to cancel your account early and delete your profile, contact our privacy team at [email protected]. The App is not intended for children under 13. If we discover that such information was collected by mistake, we will delete it as soon as reasonably possible. Guardians may contact us through the same email for assistance.

This Privacy Policy may be updated due to regulatory requirements or business changes. Please review this page periodically. Continued use after changes are published means you accept the revised policy. This policy takes effect on October 4, 2025. If you have questions or suggestions about our privacy practices, contact the 1CNY VPN team at [email protected].
