Terms of Service

Rules and conditions for using HavenCraft services.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing the HavenCraft Minecraft server, website, or any associated services, you agree to comply with these Terms of Service, our Server Rules, and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you must not use our services.

2. Independent Service

HavenCraft is an independent Minecraft community server and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with Mojang Studios, Microsoft, or any official Minecraft entity. "Minecraft" is a trademark of Mojang Studios.

3. Eligibility

You must own a legitimate copy of Minecraft (Java or Bedrock Edition) to play on HavenCraft. We do not support cracked or pirated clients. Players under 13 should have parental consent before using our services.

4. Account Responsibility

You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your Minecraft account. Any activity performed under your account — including rule violations, chat messages, and trades — is your responsibility. If your account is compromised, notify staff immediately, but punishments may still apply.

5. Server Rules

All players must follow our Server Rules. Violations may result in warnings, mutes, temporary bans, or permanent bans at the discretion of our staff team. Severe offenses (hacking, doxxing, threats) may result in an immediate permanent ban without warning.

6. Purchases and Digital Goods

All purchases on HavenCraft, including ranks, cosmetic packages, and donations, are considered digital goods delivered in-game. No physical items will be shipped. Purchases support server operations and are made voluntarily.

7. No Refund Policy

All payments are final and non-refundable once completed. By making a purchase, you acknowledge this and agree that you will not initiate chargebacks, payment disputes, or fraudulent claims through your payment provider.

8. Chargebacks and Fraud

Any chargeback, payment dispute, or fraudulent activity will result in immediate permanent suspension from the server, store, and all associated services. We reserve the right to pursue appropriate action to recover losses.

9. Rank and Perk Changes

In-game ranks, perks, features, and benefits may be modified, rebalanced, added, or removed at any time to ensure fair and enjoyable gameplay for all players. We will make reasonable efforts to communicate significant changes.

10. Server Availability

We strive for 24/7 uptime but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. The server may experience downtime due to maintenance, updates, security patches, or unforeseen technical issues. We are not liable for any losses incurred during downtime.

11. Item and Data Loss

We are not responsible for lost, stolen, or destroyed in-game items, builds, or progress — whether caused by server issues, bugs, rollbacks, or player actions. We make regular backups but cannot guarantee data recovery in all scenarios.

12. Website Usage

The HavenCraft website is provided for informational purposes and player functionality (voting, leaderboards, profiles). You agree not to abuse any website feature, attempt unauthorized access, or use automated tools to interact with the site.

13. Intellectual Property

The HavenCraft name, logo, website design, and original content are the property of the HavenCraft team. Player-created in-game content remains the creative work of its builders, but HavenCraft may use screenshots for promotional purposes.

14. Modification of Service

HavenCraft reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the server, store, or website at any time without prior notice. We will make reasonable efforts to communicate planned major changes.

15. Enforcement

Violation of server rules or these Terms of Service may result in punishment, including feature restrictions, rank removal, suspension, or permanent bans — without refund of any purchases made.

16. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms of Service at any time. Continued use of the server, website, or associated services indicates acceptance of the updated terms. The "Last Updated" date below reflects the most recent revision.
