Last Updated: June 12, 2026

9F Technologies LLC ("we", "us", or "our") operates the 9F VPN application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our App.

Our Core Commitment: We do not sell, use, or disclose any user data to third parties for any purpose. Your privacy is our top priority.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Information We Do NOT Collect

We do not log your browsing activity or traffic data
We do not log your DNS queries
We do not log your IP address on our servers
We do not collect or store your connection timestamps
We do not monitor, record, or inspect your VPN traffic

1.2 Information We May Collect

Device Identifier: A random, non-personally-identifiable device ID used solely for app functionality (e.g., managing free usage time). This ID is not linked to your identity.
Crash Reports: Anonymous crash data to help us improve app stability. This data contains no personal information.
Advertising Data: Our App uses Google AdMob to display advertisements. Google AdMob may collect device information in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy. You may opt out of personalized advertising through your device settings.

2. How We Use Information

The limited information we collect is used exclusively for:

Providing and maintaining the VPN service
Managing free usage time allocation
Displaying advertisements (free tier)
Improving app stability and performance

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise disclose your personal data to any third party for any purpose.

The only exception is when required by law, such as a valid court order or subpoena. In such cases, we can only provide the limited data described in Section 1.2, as we do not collect browsing or traffic data.

4. Data Security

We employ industry-standard security measures to protect your data:

All VPN traffic is encrypted using modern protocols
Server communications use TLS encryption
We regularly audit our infrastructure for security vulnerabilities

5. Data Retention

Since we do not log traffic data, there is no traffic data to retain. Device identifiers used for free time management are stored locally on your device and are not transmitted to our servers.

6. Children's Privacy

Our App is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected such information, we will delete it immediately.

7. Third-Party Services

Our App integrates the following third-party services:

Google AdMob: For displaying advertisements. See Google's Privacy Policy.
Apple In-App Purchases: For subscription management. See Apple's Privacy Policy.

8. Your Rights

You have the right to:

Request information about the data we hold about you
Request deletion of your data
Opt out of personalized advertising
Uninstall the App at any time to remove all locally stored data

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
