Terms of Use

Last updated: October 2026

These terms apply to the download index, configuration guides, and related articles on clash86.com. Please read them before accessing or using this content. Third-party software, services, and app stores may have separate terms that you must also review and follow.

1. Purpose and Scope

Clash for Linux curates information about Clash ecosystem clients and the mihomo core for educational and technical reference only. The site name, software names, and download links do not mean this site is part of, officially authorized by, or endorsed by any related project’s development team.

The guides describe common installation and configuration methods. They do not guarantee suitability for any particular device, network environment, or use case. Interfaces, configuration fields, and system permissions may change as projects evolve; refer to the documentation and release notes for the software you use.

2. Lawful Use and User Responsibilities

You must comply with the laws and regulations that apply where you are located and where you use the software, as well as the rules of your organization, network operator, and service providers. Do not use this site’s materials or related software for unlawful purposes, including unauthorized system access, data theft, infringement of others’ rights, or disruption of network operations.

Obtain the necessary authorization before changing proxy, routing, DNS, or virtual network interface settings on someone else’s device, a workplace device, or a managed network. Administrator privileges and background services can affect connectivity across an entire device; a tutorial describing an action does not grant permission to perform it.

You are responsible for assessing the source of your configurations and the scope of any authorization. Keep subscription URLs, access credentials, and local backups secure. Remove sensitive information before sharing logs or screenshots, and do not publicly disclose confidential details from third-party subscriptions, accounts, or configurations.

3. Software Sources and Disclaimers

The software discussed here is provided by its respective open-source project or other rights holder. This site curates information and provides download guidance, but is not involved in all aspects of its development, testing, or operation. An accessible link does not guarantee that software will run on every system or that a third-party service will remain available.

To the extent permitted by law, this site makes no guarantees about the completeness or currency of its materials, software availability, or suitability for a particular purpose. It is not liable for connection interruptions, data loss, or other losses caused by software defects, configuration errors, system differences, broken links, or changes to third-party services.

Back up important data and make sure you can restore your settings before installing or updating software or changing network configurations. If something goes wrong, stop the relevant services, restore your previous settings, and then troubleshoot using the documentation. These terms do not exclude or limit liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law, or affect any rights you have under that law.

4. Intellectual Property and Open-Source Licenses

The names, trademarks, icons, source code, and documentation of software belong to their respective rights holders. References to these materials on this site identify projects and explain how to use them; they do not grant a trademark license or change ownership of any rights.

The terms for copying, modifying, redistributing, or commercially using open-source software are set by the license accompanying the relevant project and version. Open source does not mean copyright-free. Check each license to determine whether you must retain notices, provide source code, or meet other requirements when redistributing software.

When quoting original material from this site, credit the source and link to the original, and do not remove qualifications that affect its meaning. Use of third-party material is also subject to its own licensing requirements; this site cannot grant permission on behalf of the relevant rights holders.

5. Updates and Further Information

These terms may be revised to reflect changes to site content, the software ecosystem, or legal requirements. Revisions will be published on this page, and the last-updated month at the top will be changed accordingly. Unless otherwise stated, revisions apply from the date they are published.

If you do not agree to the updated terms, stop using the relevant content. If you have questions about installation steps, permissions, or configuration, see Frequently Asked Questions and Getting Started. These guides do not replace applicable laws, project licenses, or third-party service terms.
