Terms of Use
These terms apply when you visit Clash FAQ, read configuration guides, or use download links on this site. Please read the following before using the content. If you disagree, stop using the relevant content or services. These terms do not replace a software license or limit any rights granted to you by applicable law.
1. About This Site and Its Content
This site brings together download links for Clash ecosystem clients, YAML field references, setup guides, and solutions to common issues. Its content is for educational and technical reference only. Clash FAQ is an independent information resource and does not represent any software project, developer, or subscription provider. Listing a project does not create an agency, endorsement, or authorization relationship with it.
Menu names, default ports, and configuration snippets in these guides may vary by client, core version, and operating environment. Examples explain what fields mean; they are not a promise that a configuration will work in your network environment. Check the documentation for your current version before applying any steps, and do not replace a complete configuration with an example.
2. Lawful Use and User Responsibilities
You must comply with the laws and regulations where you are located and in any region affected by your use, along with network management requirements and the terms of any services you access. You are responsible for confirming that installing and running software and handling network traffic are lawful. Do not use this site's content or related software for illegal activities, including unauthorized system access, data theft, distribution of unlawful content, or infringement of others' rights.
Limit configuration and testing to devices, accounts, and networks you are authorized to manage. Do not enable access for unauthorized people by turning on LAN access, sharing a proxy, or changing routing settings. You are responsible for the services you choose, configuration values, and actions you take. These guides do not authorize you to bypass access controls or other restrictions.
3. Third-Party Software and Data Risks
The software discussed here is provided by its open-source project or publisher. Installation requirements, supported features, licensing terms, and release schedules are determined by the relevant project. Listing a download link does not mean this site has reviewed all of the software's code or guarantees that it will remain maintained or available, or work with any particular device.
Back up important data before installing or upgrading software or changing configuration. Logs, subscription URLs, and configuration files may contain account information; remove sensitive details before sharing materials for troubleshooting. Third-party websites, app stores, and subscription services are managed by their operators. This site does not control their account, security, or data handling practices, so review their policies before using them.
4. Content Accuracy and Liability
We make reasonable efforts to maintain accurate information, but cannot guarantee that every guide will always be complete, accurate, or applicable to every version. Network outages, upstream changes, broken links, system permissions, and configuration conflicts can all affect results. For critical devices or production environments, test changes in a recoverable environment first, and avoid changing multiple network settings at once.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, this site is not liable for third-party software becoming unavailable, connection issues caused by configuration changes, data loss, service interruptions, or other related losses. We also cannot guarantee that troubleshooting steps will resolve an issue. Nothing here excludes or limits liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited. Mandatory legal requirements prevail if they conflict with these terms.
5. Intellectual Property and Open-Source Licenses
The names, marks, code, and other materials associated with Clash ecosystem software belong to their respective rights holders. Open source does not mean copyright is waived. Follow the applicable license and attribution requirements when using, modifying, or redistributing software. These terms grant no additional rights to third-party projects and do not change their existing license obligations.
Original guides and layout on this site are protected by applicable law. Please credit the source when quoting, and do not republish an entire page without attribution or mislead readers about who created the content.

6. Changes to These Terms and Feedback
We may revise these terms to reflect content or service changes or legal requirements. Revisions will be published on this page, and the date at the top will be updated. Revised terms apply to use from the date they are published and do not retroactively change rights or obligations already established under applicable law. Check this page for updates before using the site again.
For installation or configuration issues, start with Troubleshooting and check the steps in the user guide.
