Privacy隐私说明

X-WOW keeps nothing about who you are, unless you write to us除非你写信给我们，X-WOW 不保存任何能认出你的东西

No accounts, no cookies, no analytics, no trackers, no forms. Nothing you type on this site is sent anywhere or shown to anyone. Here is every place a visit touches, and what each may keep.

没有账号，没有 cookie，没有统计分析，没有追踪器，也没有表单。你在这个网站上输入的任何东西都不会被发到别处，也不会给任何人看。下面列出一次访问会经过的每个地方，以及它们各自可能留下什么。

Who serves the pages谁把网页送到你这里

Every page and file of x-wow.com comes from GitHub Pages, a service of GitHub, Inc. To send you a page, a web server has to receive your device's IP address. GitHub's documentation says: “When a GitHub Pages site is visited, the visitor's IP address is logged and stored for security purposes, regardless of whether the visitor has signed into GitHub or not.” (What is GitHub Pages?, read 10 October 2026). It doesn't say for how long; GitHub's privacy statement says retention “depends on the purpose of data collection and any legal obligations”. GitHub sends the pages through a content delivery network: the site's replies name Fastly, which GitHub lists among its subprocessors for content delivery. X-WOW can't see GitHub's logs. When we checked on 10 October 2026, the site set no cookie.

x-wow.com 的每个网页和文件都来自 GitHub Pages，这是 GitHub 公司的一项服务。服务器要把网页发给你，就必须收到你设备的 IP 地址。GitHub 的文档写道：“访问 GitHub Pages 网站时，无论访客是否登录了 GitHub，访客的 IP 地址都会被记录并保存，用于安全目的。”（What is GitHub Pages?，2026 年 10 月 10 日读取；引文为译文）它没说保存多久；GitHub 的隐私声明说，保存期限“取决于收集数据的目的和法律义务”。GitHub 通过内容分发网络送出网页：本站的响应里写着 Fastly，GitHub 把它列为负责内容分发的分包处理方。X-WOW 看不到 GitHub 的日志。我们在 2026 年 10 月 10 日检查时，本站没有设置任何 cookie。

The pages ask for nothing from anywhere else: no fonts, scripts, images or videos from other hosts. The slide game SHRINK loads its slide pictures from x-wow.com too. A link to another site (YouTube, a publisher, a supplier, GitHub) takes you to that site, under its own privacy rules.

Before a page loads, your device looks up x-wow.com's address. That lookup normally goes through your internet provider's resolver to the domain's name servers (ace and erin.ns.cloudflare.com since 11 October 2026, run by Cloudflare, Inc., not by X-WOW), not to X-WOW. Corrected 11 October 2026: this line named GoDaddy's name servers (ns27 and ns28.domaincontrol.com) until the domain moved that day.

网页加载之前，你的设备会先查 x-wow.com 的地址。这次查询通常经由你的网络服务商的解析服务器，发到这个域名的域名服务器（自 2026 年 10 月 11 日起是 ace 和 erin.ns.cloudflare.com，由 Cloudflare 公司运行，不是 X-WOW），而不会发到 X-WOW。2026 年 10 月 11 日更正：域名当天迁移之前，这一句写的是 GoDaddy 的域名服务器（ns27 和 ns28.domaincontrol.com）。

这些网页不向任何别的地方要东西：不从其他服务器加载字体、脚本、图片或视频。玻片游戏“变小探险”的玻片图像也来自 x-wow.com。点开指向别的网站的链接（YouTube、出版社、供应商、GitHub），你就到了那个网站，按它自己的隐私规则来。

What your browser keeps你的浏览器存了什么

Four small notes at most, kept only in your browser and never sent to anyone:

最多四条很小的记录，只存在你的浏览器里，从不发给任何人：

• xwow-lang (local storage): the language you chose with the EN / 中文 button. It is written only when you press that button, and stays until you clear it.
• xwow-booted (session storage): that the opening animation has already played in this tab, so it doesn't play again. It disappears when you close the tab, and is never written if your device asks for reduced motion.
• shrink-v1 (local storage, written the first time you open SHRINK): your progress in the game, including the names you typed for your finds. “Start over” in the field guide empties it; clearing the site's data removes it.
• xwow-duck (local storage): written only if you press “Hide the duck”, so it stays away; pressing “Bring the duck back” removes it.

• xwow-lang（本地存储）：你用 EN / 中文 按钮选的语言。只有按下那个按钮时才会写入，直到你清除为止。
• xwow-booted（会话存储）：开场动画在这个标签页里已经播过，免得再播一遍。关掉标签页它就没了；如果你的设备设置了“减少动态效果”，它根本不会被写入。
• shrink-v1（本地存储，第一次打开“变小探险”时写入）：你在游戏里的进度，包括你给发现的东西起的名字。图鉴里的“全部重来”会把它清空；清除这个网站的数据就会把它删掉。
• xwow-duck（本地存储）：只有在你按下“让小鸭走开”时才会写入，好让它不再出现；按“把小鸭叫回来”就会删掉。

The site works without any of them. To clear them, delete this site's data in your browser's settings, or use a private window.

没有它们，网站照样能用。要清除，在浏览器设置里删除这个网站的数据，或者用无痕窗口。

The duck小鸭

A small duck in a lab coat lives in the page margin (or in the footer on narrow screens). It never speaks and never covers the page. The duck is asleep until you tap it (or press “Wake the duck” in the footer). Awake, it reacts to how you scroll, move the pointer and pause on this page, and to long paragraphs and pictures in the middle of the screen, using only what's in your browser: it walks when you scroll, looks toward your pointer, lowers its goggles, wobbles when you tap it, and naps when nothing happens for a while. It keeps no record and works out nothing about you; nothing is sent anywhere. Everything is forgotten when you leave the page, and it is asleep again on the next one. If you send it away with the footer button, your browser remembers that in one setting (xwow-duck); “Bring the duck back” removes it.

一只穿实验服的小鸭住在页边（窄屏幕上住在页脚）。它从不说话，也从不挡住页面。小鸭子在你点它之前一直在睡觉（也可以按页脚的“叫醒小鸭”）。醒来后，它会根据你在这个页面上怎么滚动、移动指针和停顿，以及屏幕中间的长段落和图片做出反应，用的只是你浏览器里的信息：你滚动时它走路，它会朝你的指针看，会拉下护目镜，你点它一下它会晃一晃，一段时间没有动静就打盹。它不留记录，也不推测任何关于你的事；什么都不会发到别处。离开页面就全忘了，到下一页它又睡着了。如果你用页脚的按钮让它走开，浏览器会用一项设置（xwow-duck）记住；按“把小鸭叫回来”就会删掉。

Read aloud朗读

The LOUPE read-aloud button, and SHRINK's “Read it to me”, use only a voice that runs on your own device. If your device has none for the language, the button says so and stays silent, rather than use an online voice, which would send the text to another company.

LOUPE 朗读按钮和“变小探险”的“读给我听”只用你设备上本地运行的语音。如果设备上没有这种语言的本地语音，按钮会说明并保持安静，而不去用在线语音，因为在线语音会把文字发给另一家公司。

Email邮件

If you write to info@x-wow.com, your message, with your email address, stays in X-WOW's mailbox, which Google Workspace runs for us, so that we can read it and reply. We keep a message only as long as we need it to reply and to follow the conversation, and delete it sooner if you ask. We never publish private emails and never add anyone to a list. To see or delete what we hold from you, write to the same address. If you think we've got it wrong, you can complain to the UK's Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).

如果你写信到 info@x-wow.com，你的邮件连同你的邮箱地址会留在 X-WOW 的邮箱里（邮箱由 Google Workspace 为我们运行），好让我们读信、回信。邮件只保存到回信和跟进这次通信所需的时间为止；你要求的话，会更早删除。私人邮件绝不公开，也绝不把任何人加进名单。想查看或删除我们收着的你的邮件，写信到同一个地址。如果你觉得我们做得不对，可以向英国信息专员办公室（ICO，ico.org.uk）投诉。

Children孩子

The same rules hold for everyone. Nothing on this site lets one visitor reach another, and pages made for children don't link to GitHub.

对每个人都是同样的规矩。这个网站上没有任何东西能让一个访客联系到另一个访客；给孩子看的页面也不链接到 GitHub。
