It is legal for a third party web site to accept an ESTA application from you and submit it on your behalf.
However, you may be charged more than the statutory $14 you would be charged at the official page. You may also have visited a fake web site, and there is no good way to determine in advance if the site will really submit the application for you or not.
It’s best, then, to always go to the official ESTA web site to apply or update your information. Note that virtually all U.S. government web sites have a domain ending in .gov.
Of course, it is illegal under US law for a site to take your money and not submit the ESTA application. CBP recommends that, if this has happened to you, that you dispute the charges with your bank or credit card issuer.
