Operation and Maintenance Logs: The system automatically collects visiting IP addresses, device operating systems and access timestamps, which are exclusively used for troubleshooting website malfunctions and blocking malicious crawler programs targeting question banks.

Voluntary User Submissions: Nicknames, error reports on puzzles and optimization suggestions are all filled out voluntarily by users. No mandatory registration is required, nor are users compelled to submit contact information.

Partner service providers are only permitted to access aggregated statistical data stripped of personal identifiers, making individual user identification impossible.
