This license is a legal agreement between + you and us (Mojang AB) and describes the terms and conditions for using + the Game. We don't like reading license documents any more than you do, so + we have tried to keep this as short as possible. If you break these rules + we may stop you from using our Game. If we think it is necessary, we might + even have to ask our lawyers to help out. + + If you buy, download, use or play our Game, you are agreeing to stick to + the rules of these end user license agreement ("EULA") terms. If you don't + want to or can't agree to these rules, then you must not buy, download, + use or play our Game. This EULA incorporates the terms of use for the + mojang.com website ("Account Terms"), our brand and asset usage + guidelines, our privacy policy, and, if you live in the United States, + our Arbitration Agreement. By agreeing to this EULA you also agree to + all of the terms of the foregoing documents, so please read through them + carefully. + +BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER IF YOU LIVE IN THE UNITED STATES + + For those that who live in the United States, please click here to + review the binding arbitration agreement and class action waiver that is + part of this EULA. Under the agreement, we both agree to use a neutral + arbitrator to decide any individual claims that may arise and thus agree + to waive our rights to bring individual claims in court for consideration + by a judge or jury. We also agree that class action lawsuits and + class-wide arbitrations are not allowed under the terms of the agreement. + + The complete Arbitration Agreement is on this page. You and we agree + to it; please read it. + +ONE MAJOR RULE + + The one major rule is that you must not distribute anything we've made + unless we specifically agree to it. By "distribute anything we've made" + what we mean is: + + • give copies of our Game to anyone else; + • make commercial use of anything we've made; + • try to make money from anything we've made; or + • let other people get access to anything we've made in a way that is + unfair or unreasonable; + + unless we specifically agree to it. And so that we are crystal clear, "the + Game" or "what we have made" includes, but is not limited to, the client + or the server software for our Game and includes Minecraft and Minecraft: + Java Edition on all platforms. It also includes updates, patches, + downloadable content, add-ons, or modified versions of a Game, part of + those things, or anything else we've made. + + Otherwise we are quite relaxed about what you do - in fact we really + encourage you to do cool stuff - but just don't do those things that we + say you can't. + +USING OUR GAME + + You have been granted a license to the Game so you can play and use it, + yourself, on your devices. + + Below we also give you limited rights to do other things but we have to + draw a line somewhere or else people will go too far. If you wish to make + something pertaining to anything we've made we're humbled, but please make + sure that it can't be interpreted as being official and that it complies + with this EULA and the brand and asset usage guidelines and above all do + not make commercial use of anything we've made. + + The license and permission we give you to use and play our Game can be + revoked if you break any of the terms of this EULA. + + When you buy our Game, you receive a license that gives you permission to + install the Game on your own personal device and use and play it on that + device as set out in this EULA. This permission is personal to you, so you + are not allowed to distribute the Game (or any part of it) to anyone else. + This also means you cannot sell or rent the Game, or make it available for + access to other people and you cannot pass on or resell any license keys. + You may however give gift codes that have been bought through our official + gift code system. This is important to help us stop piracy and fraud and + to protect our Game. It is also important to prevent members of our + community from buying pirated versions of our Game or fraudulent license + keys - which we may cancel, such as in the case of fraud. + + If you've bought the Game, you may play around with it and modify it by + adding modifications, tools, or plugins, which we will refer to + collectively as "Mods." By "Mods," we mean something original that you or + someone else created that doesn't contain a substantial part of our + copyrightable code or content. When you combine your Mod with the + Minecraft software, we will call that combination a "Modded Version" of + the Game. We have the final say on what constitutes a Mod and what + doesn't. You may not distribute any Modded Versions of our Game or + software, and we’d appreciate it if you didn’t use Mods for griefing. + Basically, Mods are okay to distribute; hacked versions or Modded Versions + of the Game client or server software are not okay to distribute. + + Within reason you're free to do whatever you want with screenshots and + videos of the Game. By "within reason" we mean that you can't make any + commercial use of them or do things that are unfair or adversely affect + our rights unless we've specifically said it's okay in this EULA, allowed + it through the Brand and Asset Usage Guidelines, or provided for it in a + specific agreement with you. If you upload videos of the game to video + sharing and streaming sites you are however allowed to put ads on them. + Also, don't just rip art resources and pass them around, that's no fun. + + Essentially the simple rule is do not make commercial use of anything + we've made unless we've specifically said it's okay. Oh and if the law + expressly allows it, such as under a "fair use" or fair dealing" doctrine + then that's ok too - but only to the extent that the law applicable to you + says so. + + In order to ensure the integrity of the Game, we need all Game downloads + and updates to come from an authorized source. It's also important for us + that 3rd party tools/services don't seem "official" as we can't guarantee + their quality. It's part of the responsibility we have to the customers of + Minecraft. Make sure that you read through our brand and asset usage + guidelines too. + +OWNERSHIP OF OUR GAME AND OTHER THINGS + + Although we license you permission to install on your device and play our + Game, we are still the owners of it. We are also the owners of our brands + and any content contained in the Game. Therefore, when you pay for our + Game, you are buying a license to play / use our Game in accordance with + this EULA - you are not buying the Game itself. The only permissions you + have in connection with the Game and your installation of it are the + permissions set out in this EULA. + + Any Mods you create for the Game from scratch belong to you (including + pre-run Mods and in-memory Mods) and you can do whatever you want with + them, as long as you don't sell them for money / try to make money from + them and so long as you don’t distribute Modded Versions of the Game. + Remember that a Mod means something that is your original work and that + does not contain a substantial part of our code or content. You only own + what you created; you do not own our code or content. + +CONTENT + + If you make any content available on or through our Game, you agree to + give us permission to use, copy, modify, adapt, distribute, and publicly + display that content. This permission is irrevocable, and you also agree + to let us permit other people to use, copy, modify, adapt, distribute, and + publicly display your content. You are not giving up your ownership rights + in your content, you are just giving us and other users permission to use + it. For example, we may need to copy, reformat, and distribute content + that you post on our website so others can read it. If you don't want to + give us these permissions, do not make content available on or through our + Game. Please think carefully before you make any content available, + because it may be made public and might even be used by other people in a + way you don't like. + + If you are going to make something available on or through our Game, it + must not be offensive to people or illegal, it must be honest, and it must + be your own creation. Some examples of the types of things you must not + make available using our Game include: posts that include racist or + homophobic language; posts that are bullying or trolling; posts that are + offensive or that damage our or another person's reputation; posts that + include porn or someone else's creation or image; or posts that + impersonate a moderator or try to trick or exploit people. + + Any content you make available on our Game must also be your creation or + you must have permission or the legal right to do it. You must not and you + agree that you will not make any content available, using the Game that + infringes the rights of others. ' + + We reserve the right to take down any content in our discretion. + + Please watch out if you are talking to people in our Game. It is hard for + either you or us to know for sure that what people say is true, or even if + people are really who they say they are. You should think twice about + giving out information about yourself. + +UPDATES + + We might make upgrades, updates or patches (we call them all "updates") + available from time to time, but we don't have to. We are also not obliged + to provide ongoing support or maintenance of any Game. Of course, we hope + to continue to release new updates for our Game, we just can't guarantee + that we will do so. With updates come changes that might not work well + with other software, such as Mods. This is unfortunate, but it is + something we don’t take responsibility for. If that is the case, try + running an older version. + + OUR LIABILITY, GOVERNING LAW, AND PLACE TO RESOLVE DISPUTES + + The terms of this EULA do not affect any legal (statutory) rights that you + may have under the law that applies to you for the Game. You might have + certain rights which the law that applies to you says cannot be excluded. + Nothing we say in these terms will affect those legal rights, even if we + say something which sounds like it contradicts your legal rights. That’s + what we mean when we say “subject to applicable law”. + + SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAW, When you get a copy of our Game, we provide it + "'as is"'. Updates are also provided "'as is"'. This means that we are not + making any promises to you about the standard or quality of our Game, or + that our Game will be uninterrupted or error free. We are not responsible + for any loss or damage that it may cause. You bear the entire risk as to + its quality and performance. You have to accept that we may release games + well before they are complete and so they may (and often will) have bugs + -but we prefer to release these features early than make you wait for + perfection. If you would like to notify us about a potential bug, we have + a site for that here. + + If you and we ever have a dispute in court (and we hope that won't happen + just as much as you do), the exclusive forum (that is, the place it will + be handled) will be a state or federal court in King County, WA (if you + live in the United States) or a court in Ontario (if you live in Canada). + (If you live in the United States, most disputes go to arbitration, not + court.) The laws of your state or province govern this EULA and all + disputes, including disputes relating to it, our Game, or our Website, + regardless of conflict of laws principles, except that the Federal + Arbitration Act governs everything related to arbitration. + +TERMINATION + + If we want we can terminate this EULA if you breach any of the terms. You + can terminate it too, at any time; all you have to do is uninstall the + Game from your device and the EULA will be terminated. If the EULA is + terminated, you will no longer have any of the rights to the Game given in + this license. You do still have the right to things you have created + yourself with the game of course. The Arbitration Agreement (if you live + in the United States) and the paragraphs about "Ownership of Our Game", + "Our Liability" and "General Stuff" will continue to apply even after the + EULA is terminated. + +GENERAL STUFF + + Your local law may give you rights that this EULA cannot change; if so, + this EULA applies as far as the law allows. Nothing in this license limits + our liability for death or bodily injury resulting from our negligence or + fraudulent misrepresentations. + + We may change this EULA from time to time, if we have reason to, such as + changes to our games, our practices, or our legal obligation. But those + changes will be effective only to the extent that they can legally apply. + For example if you use the Game only in single-player mode and don't use + the updates we make available then the old EULA applies but if you do use + the updates or use parts of the game that rely on our providing ongoing + online services then the new EULA will apply. In that case we'll inform + you of the change before it takes effect, either by posting a notice on + our Website or by other reasonable means. We're not going to be unfair + about this though - but sometimes the law changes or someone does + something that affects other users of the Game and we therefore need to + put a lid on it. + + If you come to us with a suggestion for any one of our Websites or Games, + that suggestion is made for free and we have no obligation to accept or + consider it. This means we can use or not use your suggestion in any way + we want and we don't have to pay you for it. If you think you have a + suggestion that we would be willing to pay you for, please do not submit + your suggestion unless you have first told us you expect to be paid and we + have responded in writing by asking you to submit the suggestion. -- cgit v1.2.3
