Apple是世界上对隐私最友好的科技公司之一，这就是为什么您在Mac或 iPhone 上使用Safari时可能会比在其他浏览器上更频繁地遇到与隐私相关的错误消息。一个常见的问题是“您的连接不是私密的”。
如果您不确定为什么会看到此错误，尤其是如果网站之前运行正常，则在继续之前需要考虑以下几个原因。
为什么会出现这个错误？
网站通过使用加密来保护与您的通信。这就是为什么您会在大多数网站地址的开头看到“ HTTPS ”。“S”代表“安全(Secure)”，在Safari中，您会在站点地址左侧看到一个小挂锁图标，表示其SSL（安全套接字层(Secure Socket Layer)）证书丢失或无效。
这些安全证书是确保网络安全使用的关键。如果网站未使用HTTPS保护，任何人都可以看到您与网站服务器之间传递的数据内容。
由于互联网的运作方式，您的数据在到达目的地的途中将通过许多网络设备。如果您的数据包未加密，任何人都可以在途中复制和读取它们，而您甚至都不会知道。
如果网站的证书与网络浏览器在计算机上进行比较的身份验证证书不匹配，则无法建立SSL连接。这时您会看到此错误，通常伴随着包含“expired_certificate”或类似内容的错误代码。
重新加载网站
通常，隐私错误是由临时故障引起的。只需(Just)刷新几次网页，等待几分钟，然后再次加载站点。在大多数情况下，问题会自行解决。您可能还想查看网站的社交媒体或使用Down Detector等网站，看看问题是只影响您还是网站本身的问题。
清除浏览器缓存
与所有浏览器一样，Safari为您经常访问的网站提供本地文件缓存。发生此错误的原因可能是缓存站点导致站点证书出现问题。清除浏览器缓存是个好主意。这不会清除历史记录、设置或个人数据。它只是强制Safari下载该网站的新副本。
查看如何清除 iPhone 和 iPad 上的每个浏览器缓存(How to Clear Every Browser Cache on iPhone and iPad)以及如何在 Mac 上的 Safari 中清除缓存、历史记录和 Cookie，以(How to Clear Cache, History, and Cookies in Safari on Mac)获取准确的说明。
重新启动连接(Connection)（或尝试不同(Different One)的连接）
重新启动连接是一个很好的基本故障排除步骤，即使您只在一个特定网站上遇到此错误。关闭路由器，等待一分钟左右，然后重新打开。
ISP(ISPs)将某些网站列入黑名单，因此您可能无法访问某个网站，因为您的宽带提供商不允许访问。您可能幸运地使用不同的服务提供商访问该网站，例如您的手机提供商。
检查您的时区(Time Zone)和时间是否正确(Time Are Correct)。
如果您的Macbook或 iOS 设备的日期不正确，则您在访问网站时无法正确验证证书。前往(Head)Apple Menu > System Preferences > Date & Time并确保一切正确。
该网站的SSL 证书无效(SSL Certificate Is Invalid)或已过期
有时，您收到此错误是因为网站所有者采取了一些措施使其安全证书无效，或者他们忘记了更新证书。在这种情况下，您可以联系他们，等到他们解决问题，或者您可以选择绕过警告并继续进行。您可以在下面进一步了解如何执行此操作。
不支持旧版本的 macOS
如果您在Mac上使用 macOS (Mac)El Capitan或更早版本，那么您一定会遇到这个问题，因为这些版本的 macOS 没有收到更新，并且在2021 年9 月 30(September 30)日之后，用于IdentTrust DST Root CA身份验证的证书操作系统本身的(DST Root CA X3 certificates)X3 证书已过期。
这意味着那些 macOS 版本无法确定IdentTrust颁发的网站证书是否有效，并且会产生此错误。您可以尝试使用第三方替代品更新那些经过认证的证书，但这代表着严重的安全风险。相反，我们建议更新到更新版本的 macOS。如果您的Mac太旧而无法运行比El Capitan更新的任何东西，则可能需要更换。
该网站是假的或被黑的
网络钓鱼是一种网络攻击，在这种攻击中，用户会被引导至伪造的网站，这些网站看起来像真正的银行网站或您可能会在其中输入敏感信息的其他网站。这些虚假网站通常没有HTTPS加密，因此浏览器会向您发出警告。
仔细检查您输入的网址是否正确。不要使用电子邮件或消息中发送给您的链接访问该站点。切勿(Never)将任何个人信息输入受HTTPS保护的网站，即使您确定该网站是正确的。
查看页面的缓存版本
如果您只想查看网站的内容，那么一种安全的方法是查看页面的缓存版本。您可以访问诸如Internet Way Back Machine之类的网站，该网站会定期拍摄网站快照并让您浏览内容。
如果您想要最新的站点版本，可以使用Google。在Google(Google)中搜索网页或将其URL粘贴到搜索栏中。
在搜索结果旁边，选择三个点，然后从弹出的选项中选择缓存。(Cached)
请记住，您不能与网站互动，只能阅读！
使用私人模式
与 Google Chrome 的隐身模式(Incognito Mode)和新隐身窗口(New Incognito Window)命令一样，Safari浏览器提供隐私浏览模式。在Safari菜单栏上，转到“File > New Private Window，然后将打开一个私人窗口。
本窗口(Window)不记录cookies等网站数据。从网站的角度来看，您是一张白纸。有时，这似乎解决了连接错误，您将不会再看到警告消息。
检查您的防病毒软件(Antivirus)或防火墙软件(Firewall Software)
如果您使用Mac防病毒软件或者您有第三方防火墙软件或硬件，请检查您尝试访问的特定站点是否在某处列入黑名单。该安全系统有时会干扰网站访问。您可以暂时禁用它们以快速确认它们是否有问题。
在禁用防病毒软件之前，请在使用时执行系统扫描。恶意软件(Malware)（例如浏览器劫持程序）可以将您重定向到黑客设置的虚假网站。
不要使用公共 Wi-Fi 网络
如果您使用带有公共密码的 Wi-Fi 连接，例如在酒店或咖啡店；您的网络流量很容易被拦截、路由到虚假网站，或者只是被监视。
如果您在使用公共 Wi-Fi(Public Wi-Fi)时在Safari中遇到(Safari)SSL隐私错误，您绝对不能继续访问该网站。切勿(Never)使用必须输入详细信息（例如信用卡信息）的网站，除非它们提供安全连接。
禁用您的 VPN 或更改服务器
如果您使用 VPN（虚拟专用网络(Virtual Private Network)），您可能正在访问托管该站点的服务器，该站点已被破坏或存在证书问题。网站通常托管在世界各地的多台服务器上，您将由离您选择的VPN位置最近的站点服务器提供服务。(VPN)
因此，通过关闭您的VPN或选择不同的VPN服务器位置，您可以访问托管您要访问的站点的服务器，该服务器没有任何问题。
绕过警告
如果您没有采取任何措施来消除此连接不是私人错误，并且您必须有权访问该站点，则您可以绕过该错误并无论如何查看该站点。
在Safari中，选择显示详细信息(Show Details)选项。
这将解释错误并为您提供“访问此网站”的选项。
如果您确定，则可以使用该选项访问该站点的不安全版本。
安全胜于抱歉！
如今一切都如此依赖互联网，您不能拿自己的隐私或信息冒险。如果Safari（或任何其他浏览器）警告您连接不安全，最好听一听！
What Does “This Connection Is Not Private” Mean in Safari?
Apрle is one of the most privacy-friendly technology companies іn the world, which is why you might facе privacy-related error messages more often on a Mac or iPhone when using Safari than another browser. A common one to see is “Your connection is not private.”
If you’re not sure why you’re seeing this error, especially if a site has worked normally before, there are a few reasons you need to be concerned before pressing on.
Why Does This Error Occur?
Websites secure their communications with you by using encryption. This is why you’ll see “HTTPS” at the start of most website addresses. The “S” is for “Secure,” and in Safari, you’ll see a small padlock icon to the left of a site address to indicate that its SSL (Secure Socket Layer) certificate is either missing or invalid.
These security certificates are key to making the web safe to use. If a website is not secured using HTTPS, anyone can see the content of the data being passed between you and the website server.
Due to how the internet works, your data will pass through many network devices on the way to its destination. If your data packets aren’t encrypted, anyone can copy and read them en route, and you’d never even know.
If there is a mismatch between the website’s certificate and the authentication certificate the web browser compares it to on the computer, it can’t establish an SSL connection. This is when you’ll see this error, usually accompanied by an error code that includes “expired_certificate” or something similar.
Reload the Website
Often, the privacy error results from a temporary glitch. Just refresh the web page a few times, wait a few minutes, and load the site again. In most cases, the problem will resolve by itself. You may also want to check the site’s social media or use a website such as Down Detector to see if the problem is only affecting you or if it’s an issue with the website itself.
Clear the Browser Cache
Like every browser, Safari has a local cache of files for websites you visit often. It’s possible for this error to happen because the cached site is causing issues with the site’s certificate. It’s a good idea to clear the browser cache. This won’t clear history, settings, or personal data. It simply forces Safari to download a fresh copy of the website.
Have a look at How to Clear Every Browser Cache on iPhone and iPad and How to Clear Cache, History, and Cookies in Safari on Mac for exact instructions.
Restart Your Connection (Or Try a Different One)
Restarting your connection is a good basic troubleshooting step, even if you’re only getting this error with one specific website. Turn off your router, wait a minute or so and then turn it back on.
ISPs blacklist some websites, so it could be that you can’t reach a site because your broadband provider doesn’t allow it. You may have some luck accessing the site using a different service provider, such as your mobile phone provider.
Check That Your Time Zone and Time Are Correct.
If your Macbook or iOS device has the incorrect date, you can’t properly authenticate the certificate when visiting websites. Head to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Date & Time and make sure everything is correct.
The Website’s SSL Certificate Is Invalid or Expired
Sometimes, you’re getting this error because the website owner has done something to invalidate their security certificate or they’ve forgotten to renew it. In this case, you can either contact them, wait until they fix the issue, or you can choose to bypass the warning and proceed anyway. You can find out how to do that further below.
Unsupported Older Versions of macOS
If you are using macOS El Capitan or older on your Mac, then you’re bound to run into this problem because those versions of macOS are not receiving updates, and after September 30, 2021, the certificates used for authentication of IdentTrust DST Root CA X3 certificates in the OS itself expired.
This means that those macOS versions cannot determine whether the website certificates issued by IdentTrust are valid or not and will generate this error. You can attempt to update those certificated with third-party replacements, but this represents a serious security risk. Instead, we recommend updating to a newer version of macOS. If your Mac is too old to run anything newer than El Capitan, it’s likely due for replacement.
The Website Is Fake or Hacked
Phishing is a type of cyberattack where users are led to a fake website made to look like a real banking website or another site where you’re likely to enter sensitive information. These fake websites often don’t have HTTPS encryption, and so the browser will warn you.
Double-check that you have entered the web address correctly. Don’t get to the site by using a link sent to you in an email or message. Never enter any personal information into a site that is hot secured by HTTPS, even if you’re sure it’s the correct website.
View a Cached Version of the Page
If all you want to do is see the contents of a website, then one safe way to do it is by looking at a cached version of the page. You can go to sites such as the Internet Way Back Machine, which takes snapshots of websites at intervals and lets you browse the content.
If you want a recent site version, you can use Google. Search for the web page in Google or paste its URL into the search bar.
Next to the search result, select the three dots and then choose Cached from the options that pop up.
Just remember that you can’t interact with the site, only read it!
Use Private Mode
Like Google Chrome’s Incognito Mode and the New Incognito Window command, the Safari browser offers a private browsing mode. On the Safari menu bar, Go to File > New Private Window and a private window will open.
This Window does not record website data such as cookies. From the website’s point of view, you’re a blank slate. Sometimes, this seems to resolve the connection error, and you won’t see the warning message anymore.
Check Your Antivirus or Firewall Software
If you use Mac antivirus software or you have third-party firewall software or hardware, check that the specific site you’re trying to access isn’t blacklisted somewhere. This security system can interfere with website access sometimes. You can temporarily disable them to quickly confirm whether they are at fault.
Before you disable your antivirus, perform a system scan while you’re at it. Malware, such as browser hijackers, can redirect you to fake websites set up by hackers.
Don’t Use a Public Wi-Fi Network
If you’re using a Wi-Fi connection with a public password, such as at a hotel or coffee shop; you’re vulnerable to having your network traffic intercepted, routed to fake websites, or simply spied upon.
If you get the SSL privacy error in Safari while on Public Wi-Fi, you absolutely must not proceed to that website. Never use sites where you have to enter details such as credit card information unless they offer a secure connection.
Disable Your VPN or Change Servers
If you use a VPN (Virtual Private Network) you may be accessing a server hosting the site that’s been compromised or has certificate issues. Websites are usually hosted on multiple servers around the world and you’ll be served by the site server closest to the VPN location you’ve selected.
So by turning off your VPN, or by choosing a different VPN server location, you may access a server hosting the site you want to visit that doesn’t have any problems.
Bypass the Warning
If nothing you do gets rid of the This connection is not a private error, and you must have access to the site, you can bypass the error and view the site anyway.
In Safari, select the Show Details option.
This will explain the error and give you the option to “visit this website.”
If you’re sure, then you can use that option to access the insecure version of the site.
Better Safe Than Sorry!
With everything so dependent on the internet these days, you can’t afford to take any chances with your privacy or your information. If Safari (or any other browser) is warning you that your connection isn’t secure, it’s probably a good idea to listen!
