Terms of Use

Last updated: October 2026

These terms apply when you visit the Clash Open Source Hub or use its client download links, setup guides, and technical resources. Read them before downloading software or changing network settings. If you disagree with these terms, stop using the relevant services. These terms do not replace software license agreements or the rules of third-party services.

1. Site Purpose and Scope

This site provides resources about Clash ecosystem clients and network configuration for educational purposes, technical research, and lawful network administration. Guides cover common procedures for specific platforms and clients. Interfaces, supported fields, and system permissions may change as projects are updated.

This site compiles resources and provides usage guides. It does not represent client developers, core maintainers, or subscription providers. Download links, project descriptions, and references to documentation do not imply agency, partnership, or any guarantee of third-party services. This site does not provide proxy nodes or subscriptions.

2. Lawful Use and User Responsibilities

Users must comply with the laws and regulations applicable where they live and where they use the software, as well as the rules of their employer, school, and network operator. Do not use related software, configurations, or resources from this site for unlawful activities, including unauthorized system access, privacy violations, distributing illegal content, or disrupting network operations.

Before downloading or installing software, verify that you have the necessary device permissions, that the license terms allow your intended use, and that your purpose is lawful. Before changing system proxy settings, enabling TUN, or allowing LAN connections, understand the scope of the changes. Do not deploy software on devices without authorization or expose proxy ports to untrusted networks. Users are responsible under applicable law for their actions and any resulting consequences.

3. Third-Party Software and Services

Related software is provided by its respective open-source project or developer. Features, maintenance status, compatibility, and release schedules depend on each project. When visiting external websites, app stores, or subscription services, their own terms and privacy policies apply. Review them separately before submitting information or making a payment.

This site does not control third-party download sources, subscription content, account status, or network routes. A working link does not mean software is suitable for every device or that a third-party service will remain available. Choose an installer that matches your system architecture, and review permission requests carefully during installation.

4. Risks and Limitation of Liability

We make reasonable efforts to keep these resources clear and accurate, but do not guarantee that they are complete, continuously updated, or that software and links will always be available. Client performance may depend on your operating system version, security software, network conditions, and configuration source. Examples in our guides cannot replace an assessment of your specific environment.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, this site is not liable for connection interruptions, overwritten configurations, data loss, or other losses resulting from the use of related software or resources. Back up working configurations and important data before making changes. If a problem occurs, try disabling the relevant proxy features and restoring your previous network settings. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where applicable law prohibits such exclusion or limitation.

5. Intellectual Property and Open-Source Licenses

The rights to each project's name, logo, software code, and documentation belong to their respective owners. This site's descriptions do not alter ownership. The terms for using, modifying, redistributing, or commercially using software depend on the licenses for the relevant project and its included components. No single project's license should be treated as a license for the entire ecosystem.

When copying or distributing software, retain applicable license texts and copyright notices, and meet the obligations set out in the relevant licenses. When citing original guides from this site, credit the source. Do not edit or remove context in a way that could mislead readers, or use this site's branding to suggest developer endorsement.

6. Changes to These Terms and Help

We may revise these terms to reflect changes to site content, projects, or legal requirements. Updates will be posted on this page, and the month shown as the last updated date at the top will be changed. New requirements apply as described in the revised terms and do not retroactively change rights or obligations already established under applicable law.

We recommend reviewing this page again before use. For installation, subscription imports, and configuration issues, start with Frequently Asked Questions or the setup guides and follow the instructions there. For questions about third-party accounts, subscriptions, or software licenses, contact the relevant service or use the project's public support channels.
