LinksTo.fyi

Terms of Service

Effective Date: July 27, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of LinksTo.fyi, a URL shortening, link management, and click analytics platform. By creating an account or using our service, you agree to these Terms.

Plain English summary: Don't use our platform for spam, phishing, or illegal content. Don't abuse the system. We'll treat you fairly, and we expect the same in return.

1. Account Registration

To use LinksTo.fyi, you must create an account with a valid email address and password. You are responsible for:

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

2. Acceptable Use

You agree to use LinksTo.fyi only for lawful purposes. You may not use the service to:

3. Service Tiers & Limits

LinksTo.fyi offers multiple account tiers (Free, Trusted, Premium, Admin) with different link limits, features, and capabilities. Specific limits include:

We reserve the right to modify tier limits, features, and pricing at any time. Current limits are displayed in your account dashboard. Administrators may override limits on a per-user basis.

4. Link Behavior & Auto-Expiration

Active links: Your short links redirect visitors to your specified destination URL as long as the link is active and your account is in good standing.

Auto-expiration: Links on free accounts that receive no clicks for 180 consecutive days may be automatically archived by our system. Archived links stop redirecting but are not permanently deleted. Upgraded account tiers are exempt from auto-expiration.

Deactivation: You may deactivate or archive any of your links at any time through your dashboard. Administrators may deactivate links that violate these Terms.

5. Soft Delete & Slug Retention

When a link is deleted or archived, the slug (short URL path) remains permanently reserved. It will not be released for use by other accounts. This protects users who have printed, published, or distributed their short links — ensuring those URLs are never hijacked by another party.

Only site administrators can manually release an archived slug in exceptional circumstances.

6. Domain Filtering

We maintain a list of blocked destination domains to prevent abuse. Links pointing to known phishing, malware, or spam domains will be rejected. We may also block specific TLDs (top-level domains) associated with high abuse rates.

If you believe a legitimate domain has been incorrectly blocked, contact support.

7. Click Analytics

We provide click analytics as part of the service. Analytics data (click counts, referrers, timestamps) is available to the link owner and site administrators. IP addresses of link visitors are hashed before storage — we do not store or display raw IP addresses.

8. Data Export

You may export your link data (including slugs, destination URLs, labels, campaigns, notes, click counts, and timestamps) as CSV at any time through your dashboard. We believe your data belongs to you.

9. Intellectual Property

You retain ownership of all content you link to through LinksTo.fyi. We do not claim any rights over your destination URLs, labels, or campaign data. The LinksTo.fyi name, logo, and platform design are our intellectual property.

10. Availability & Uptime

We strive to maintain high availability but do not guarantee 100% uptime. The service may be temporarily unavailable for maintenance, updates, or circumstances beyond our control. We are not liable for any losses resulting from service downtime.

11. Limitation of Liability

LinksTo.fyi is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the maximum extent permitted by law:

12. Account Termination

By you: You may request account deletion at any time by contacting support@linksto.fyi. Your personal data will be removed, but archived slugs are retained per our slug retention policy.

By us: We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, engage in abuse, or pose a risk to the platform or other users. We will attempt to notify you by email before or at the time of termination when possible.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

14. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of South Carolina, without regard to conflict of law principles.
