Terms of Use and Privacy
Last updated: 25 October 2026
In short: jithin.site gives free subdomains to personal, open-source, student and hobby projects. Don't use it for anything harmful or misleading. We can remove any subdomain that breaks these rules, and the service comes with no guarantees.
1. The service
jithin.site ("we", "the service") is a free, volunteer-run project that points subdomains of jithin.site, such as todo.jithin.site, to websites and apps hosted elsewhere. We only manage DNS records. We don't host, store or control the content of any site that uses a subdomain.
2. Who can use it
- You need a GitHub account in good standing, and you must be old enough to use GitHub under its terms.
- Subdomains are for personal, open-source, student and hobby projects. Companies and commercial products should register their own domain.
- Each GitHub account can hold up to 2 subdomains.
3. Acceptable use
You may not use a subdomain, or the site it points to, for:
- Phishing, collecting passwords or payment details, or pages that imitate another site's login
- Malware or unwanted software, or links to them
- Scams, fraud, fake giveaways, investment or crypto schemes, or gambling
- Impersonating any person, brand, company, government body or this service
- Sexual content, hate speech, harassment, or anything that harms children
- Copyright or trademark infringement, or pirated content
- Spam, URL shorteners, redirect-only pages, or reselling or sub-letting the subdomain
- Anything illegal in India or in the country where you live
You're responsible for your site's content and for following your hosting platform's terms.
4. Removal
- We may remove any subdomain at any time, with or without notice, if we believe it breaks these terms or puts people or the service at risk.
- Phishing, malware and other harmful sites are removed immediately, and the owner's account is blocked from making new requests.
- If your subdomain stops pointing to a working site for 30 days, we may remove it so nobody else can take it over.
- You can remove your own subdomain at any time with a change request.
5. No warranty
The service is provided free and "as is", without warranties of any kind. We don't promise it will always be available, and we aren't liable for any loss caused by using it or by a subdomain being changed or removed. If we ever shut the service down, we'll try to give at least 30 days' notice on this site and on GitHub.
6. Privacy
- Requests are public. What you enter in the GitHub request form (your GitHub username, the subdomain, its target and your project link) is published on GitHub. Don't include anything private.
- Abuse reports are private. Reports sent by email are seen only by the maintainers. We keep records of reports and removals for at least 180 days, as Indian law requires.
- This website uses no cookies, analytics or trackers. It's served by Cloudflare, which processes visitors' IP addresses to deliver and protect the site.
- The name checker on the home page asks Cloudflare's public DNS service (1.1.1.1) whether the name you type already exists. Nothing is sent to us.
- Sites that use an jithin.site subdomain are run by their owners, under their own privacy policies.
7. Report abuse
To report a subdomain used for phishing, malware, scams or other harmful content, email abuse@jithin.site with the full subdomain and what you found. Screenshots and links help. We acknowledge reports within 24 hours and remove clear phishing or malware as soon as we see it.
Found a security problem with jithin.site itself? See our security policy.
8. Grievance Officer
In line with India's Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021, complaints about this service can be sent to our Grievance Officer:
Name: Jithin Lal K R
Email: abuse@jithin.site
We acknowledge complaints within 24 hours and aim to resolve them within 15 days.
9. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the current version, and the full history is public on GitHub. Keeping a subdomain after a change means you accept the new terms.
10. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of India.
