Acceptable Use Policy

labs.ly exists to help real, honest projects. By requesting or using a subdomain you agree to this policy. Violations lead to removal of the subdomain and the associated DNS record.

1. Real, live projects only

The target must be a working website for a genuine project. Placeholder pages, empty repositories, link shorteners and parked or for-sale pages are not allowed.

2. No advertising, tracking or spam

No ad networks, pop-ups, forced redirects, affiliate spam, crypto faucets, or aggressive tracking. Content must be suitable for a general audience.

3. No abusive or illegal content

No harassment, hate speech, sexual content involving minors, malware, phishing, fraud, piracy, or anything that violates applicable law or the rights of others.

4. No impersonation or brand abuse

Do not request names that impersonate labs.ly, its maintainers, or any third-party brand. Reserved and misleading names are rejected automatically.

5. Security and integrity

Do not use a subdomain for credential harvesting, malware distribution, botnets, or to misrepresent your relationship with labs.ly. We may suspend any subdomain at any time to protect the domain's reputation.

6. Enforcement and takedown

We review reports of abuse and, where warranted, remove the entry, revoke the DNS record and block future requests. Report abuse via the repository's issue tracker.

7. No warranty

Subdomains are provided free of charge, as-is, with no guarantee of availability.
