Trust & Legal
Terms of Service
These are the terms for using Learn Dark Web. By using this site you agree to them. They are written in plain language on purpose — if anything here is unclear, email us and ask.
What this site is
Learn Dark Web is an independent education website about the dark web, Tor, digital privacy and cybersecurity. It is run from Pakistan by Abdul Hannan, the site's editor. The content is educational information, not legal advice, not professional security advice, and not a service. See the Educational Disclaimer for the full statement.
What you may do with our content
- Read and learn. Everything on the site is free to read.
- Share with attribution. You may link to any page, and you may quote short passages for discussion, teaching or criticism, as long as you name Learn Dark Web and link back to the page.
- Use the tools. The free browser-based tools — password checks, hash and encoding demonstrations, ciphers and quizzes — are free to use. They run entirely in your browser; what you type stays on your device.
What you may not do
- Republish whole pages without permission. Do not copy entire articles, guides or pages to your own website, book, or course without our written permission. Short quotation with attribution is fine; whole-page republication is not.
- Pretend our content is yours. Do not remove attribution, and do not present our work as your own.
- Use the site unlawfully. Do not use anything on this site to break the law, to harm anyone, to access systems without permission, or to facilitate any illegal activity. The site teaches defensive, educational concepts only.
- Scrape or overload the site. Do not run automated requests that degrade the site for other readers.
No warranty
The content on this site is provided "as is", without warranties of any kind. We work hard to keep it accurate — every factual claim is checked against a reliable source before publication, and corrections are made openly — but we cannot guarantee that every page is complete, current or error-free. Technology, guidance and the law all change, and a page may become outdated between reviews.
Nothing on this site is legal advice, and nothing here is a guarantee of anonymity, security or safety. Tor is a privacy tool with real limits; it does not make anyone invisible, and no tool on this site does either.
Liability limits, in plain words
To the fullest extent allowed by law, we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of this site — including decisions you make based on its content, or anything that happens because you relied on a page that was incomplete or out of date. We are also not responsible for the content of external websites linked from this site.
That limit does not cover anything the law says cannot be limited, and it does not change your own responsibility for what you do with the information here. If you act unlawfully, that is your responsibility, not ours.
Availability
We aim to keep the site available, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted access. The site may be changed, updated or taken down for maintenance at any time, without notice. We may also change, correct or remove any page at any time.
Changes to these terms
These terms may be updated from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page shows when they last changed. By continuing to use the site after a change, you agree to the updated terms. If a change is material, we will say so in the updated text.
