Your trip details stay on your device.
This page explains the small amount of data used to operate and improve China On Your Own. Last updated 19 Jul 2026.
Checklist and arrival tools
Country, route, checklist progress, and offline first-hotel address details are stored in your browser's local storage. This address tool is separate from China's official immigration arrival card. The saved details are not sent to a China On Your Own account or database. Clearing this site's browser data removes the saved copy.
The Entry Path Finder keeps your answers only in the current page while it is open. It does not save or send those answers.
Analytics and performance
We use Vercel Web Analytics for aggregated page-use information. The site also includes the Vercel Speed Insights component, but performance collection is not currently enabled for this Vercel project. If it is enabled later, this notice will be updated. Vercel Web Analytics may process the page or route, referrer, approximate region, and device and browser information. Vercel states that it does not associate this data with an individual visitor or IP address and does not use third-party cookies.
