Terms of Use

Last updated: September 15, 2026

Acceptance of Terms

By using FindOpenSource, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

About FindOpenSource

FindOpenSource is a free, community-maintained directory and search tool for discovering open source projects by the feature or problem they solve. It is a static website with no user accounts, no login, and no backend database.

Directory and Project Information

Project entries on FindOpenSource — including names, descriptions, categories, keywords, and links — are curated by the community and reviewed through GitHub pull requests. While we aim for accuracy, this information may be incomplete, outdated, or contain errors. Always verify details against the project's own repository and official documentation before relying on them.

External Websites and Third-Party Content

FindOpenSource links to external websites, including GitHub repositories, official project sites, and documentation, which are operated independently by their respective maintainers or organizations. We do not control, endorse, or take responsibility for the content, availability, or practices of any external site.

Open-Source Licenses

FindOpenSource does not own, license, or grant any rights to the open source projects listed in the directory. Each project is owned and licensed by its respective authors or organizations under the license shown on its entry. Before using any listed project, review its actual license and official repository to confirm the terms that apply to it.

Accuracy and Availability

FindOpenSource is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We do not guarantee that the site, or any project information it contains, will be complete, accurate, uninterrupted, or error-free.

User Contributions

Anyone may propose additions or corrections to the project catalog by opening a pull request or issue on GitHub, as described on the Contribute page. Contributions are reviewed by maintainers before being merged, and we do not guarantee that any particular contribution will be accepted, or accepted within a specific timeframe.

Intellectual Property

The FindOpenSource codebase and website are open source under the MIT License, available on GitHub. Project names, logos, trademarks, and software referenced in the directory belong to their respective owners and are used for identification purposes only; listing a project does not imply endorsement by, or affiliation with, its owners.

Prohibited Use

You agree not to misuse FindOpenSource — for example, by attempting to disrupt the site, scraping it in a way that degrades service for others, or using it to distribute unlawful or harmful content.

Disclaimer

FindOpenSource makes no warranties, express or implied, about the site or the open source projects it links to, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, FindOpenSource and its contributors are not liable for any damages arising from your use of the site or your reliance on information found on it, including issues with any third-party project or website it links to.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms of Use as the site evolves. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after changes take effect means you accept the updated terms.
