<value>Minecraft: PlayStation®3 Edition - TERMS OF USE
|
||
These Terms set out some rules for using Minecraft: PlayStation®3 Edition ("Minecraft"). In order to protect Minecraft and the members of our community, we need these terms to set out some rules for downloading and using Minecraft. We don't like rules any more than you do, so we have tried to keep this as short as possible but if you buy, download, use or play Minecraft, you are agreeing to stick to these terms ("Terms").
|
||
Before we get going there is one thing we want to make really clear. Minecraft is a game that allows players to build and break things. If you play with other people (multiplayer) you can build with them or you can break what they have been building - and they can do the same to you. So don't play with other people if they don't behave like you want them to. Also sometimes people do things that they shouldn't. We don't like it but there is not a lot we can do to stop it except ask that everyone behaves properly. We rely on you and others like you in the community to let us know if someone isn’t behaving properly and if that is the case and / or you think someone is breaching the rules or these Terms or using Minecraft improperly please do tell us. We have a flagging / reporting system for doing that so please use it and we will do what is necessary to deal with it.
|
||
To flag or report any issues please email us at support@mojang.com and give us as much information as you can such as the user's details and what has happened.
|
||
Now back to the Terms:
|
||
ONE MAJOR RULE
|
||
The one major rule is that you must not distribute anything we've made. By "distribute anything we've made" what we mean is "give copies of Minecraft away, make commercial use of, try to make money from, or let other people get access to Minecraft and its parts in a way that is unfair or unreasonable". So the one major rule is that (unless we specifically agree it – such as in our Brand and Asset Usage Guidelines) you must not:
|
||
• give copies of Minecraft 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.
|
||
...and so that we are crystal clear, what we have made includes, but is not limited to, the client or the server software for Minecraft. It also includes modified versions of a Game, part of it 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 (see below) - but just don't do those things that we say you can't.
|
||
USING MINECRAFT
|
||
• You have bought Minecraft so you can use it, yourself, on your PlayStation®3 system .
|
||
• 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 related 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 these Terms and above all do not make commercial use of anything we've made.
|
||
• The permission we give you to use and play Minecraft can be revoked if you break these Terms.
|
||
• When you buy Minecraft, we give you permission to install Minecraft on your own PlayStation®3 system and use and play it on that PlayStation®3 system as set out in these Terms. This permission is personal to you, so you are not allowed to distribute Minecraft (or any part of it) to anyone else (except as expressly permitted by us of course).
|
||
• Within reason you're free to do whatever you want with screenshots and videos of Minecraft. 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. 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 specifically agreed by us, either in our brand and asset usage guidelines or under these Terms. 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 says so.
|
||
OWNERSHIP OF MINECRAFT AND OTHER THINGS
|
||
• Although we give you permission to play Minecraft, we are still the owners of it. We are also the owners of our brands and any content contained in Minecraft, which is made up of our software, textures, assets, tools, infrastructure and a whole load of other clever (and not so clever) stuff that we own. All our rights in that stuff are asserted and reserved but you can use it subject to these Terms.
|
||
• That doesn’t mean we own the cool stuff that you create using Minecraft - you just have to accept that we own each part of Minecraft and Minecraft as a product and service and those things mentioned in the previous sentence – and we also own the copyright and other so called intellectual property rights ("IPRs") associated with those things and the names and brands associated with Minecraft.
|
||
• You of course are going to make your own stuff in and using Minecraft. We don’t own the original stuff that you create and we don’t claim any ownership of anything that we shouldn’t. We will however own things that are copies (or substantial copies) or derivatives of our property and creations (outlined above) - but if you create original things they aren’t ours. So, as an example:
|
||
- a single block – we own that;
|
||
- a Gothic Cathedral with a rollercoaster running through it – we don't own that.
|
||
• Therefore, when you pay for the use of Minecraft, you are only buying a permission to use the Minecraft product in accordance with these Terms. The only permissions you have in connection with Minecraft are the permissions set out in these Terms.
|
||
CONTENT
|
||
• If you make any content available on or through Minecraft, you must give us permission to use, copy, modify and adapt that content. This permission must be irrevocable and unrestricted. You must also let us permit other people to use your content and you must let the other people you let access it (such as those you play multiplayer games with) use it.
|
||
• Please think carefully before you make any content available, because it may be made public and may be used by other people in a way you don't like.
|
||
• If you are going to make something available on or through Minecraft, it must not be offensive to people or illegal, it must be honest, and it must be your own creation. The types of things you must not make available using Minecraft include: posts that include racist or homophobic language; posts that are bullying or trolling; posts that might damage our or another person's reputation; posts that include porn, advertising 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 Minecraft must also be your creation. You must not make any content available, using Minecraft, that infringes the rights of anyone else. If you post content on Minecraft, and we get challenged, threatened or sued by someone because the content infringes that persons rights, we may hold you responsible and that means you may have to pay us back for any damage we suffer as a result. Therefore it is really important that you only make content available that you have created and you don't do so with any content created by anyone else.
|
||
• Please take care over who you play with. 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 also not give out information about yourself through Minecraft.
|
||
If you are going to make content ("Your Content") available using Minecraft it must:
|
||
- comply with all Sony Computer Entertainment’s rules including the ToSUA which are the "PSN" Terms of Service and the User Agreement and any other guidelines that you have to agree to in order to use your PlayStation®3 system and the "PSN";
|
||
- not be offensive to people;
|
||
- not be illegal or unlawful;
|
||
- be honest and not mislead, trick or exploit anyone else nor impersonate others;
|
||
- not infringe anyone’s copyright or other rights;
|
||
- not be racist, sexist or homophobic;
|
||
- not be bullying or trolling;
|
||
- not damage our or another person’s reputation;
|
||
- not include pornography;
|
||
- not include advertising.
|
||
- You must not make any content available using Minecraft that infringes the rights of anyone else.
|
||
• You are responsible for all Your Content that is made available by you using Minecraft.
|
||
• By making Your Content available you warrant and are telling us that you are fully entitled to do so under these Terms and that we are entitled to exercise the rights you have granted to us under these Terms.
|
||
• If we get challenged, threatened or sued by someone because of any content that you make available using Minecraft or is made available by anyone on or through Minecraft it may be removed, you may be held responsible and you may have to compensate us back for any damage we suffer as a result. Your access to certain aspects of Minecraft may be removed or suspended too.
|
||
USER CONTENT
|
||
The following sets out some terms concerning both Your Content and content made available by others which are referred to simply as "User Content". Minecraft is an entertainment service and ancillary to this we (and our licensees (like Sony Computer Entertainment) are involved in the transmission, distribution, storage and retrieval of User Content without review, selection or alteration of the content. What that means is that we do not review the User Content and so we won't know what is being circulated by you or other people. We have these rules in the Terms so that you and other people have to comply with but we can’t know everything that goes on.
|
||
So please note that:
|
||
• the views expressed in any User Content are the views of the individual authors or creators and not us or anyone connected with us unless we specify otherwise;
|
||
• we are not responsible for (and make no warranty or representation in relation to and disclaim all liability for) all User Content including any comments, views or remarks expressed in it;
|
||
• by using Minecraft you acknowledge that we have no responsibility to review the content of any User Content and that all User Content is made available on the basis that we are not required to and do not exercise any control or judgement over it.
|
||
HOWEVER we (or our licensees like Sony Computer Entertainment) may remove, reject or suspend access to any User Content and remove or suspend your ability to post, make available or access User Content – including removing or suspending access to Minecraft or the "PSN" if we consider it is appropriate to do so, such as because you have breached these Terms or we receive a complaint. We will also act expeditiously to remove or disable access to User Content if and when we have actual knowledge of it being unlawful.
|
||
UPGRADES
|
||
• We might make upgrades and 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 Minecraft, we just can't guarantee that we will do so.
|
||
OUR LIABILITY
|
||
• When you get a copy of Minecraft, we provide it 'as is'. Updates and upgrades are also provided 'as is'. This means that we are not making any promises to you about the standard or quality of Minecraft or that Minecraft will be uninterrupted or error free or for any loss or damage that they cause. We only promise to provide Minecraft and any services with reasonable skill and care. The law in most countries says that we can't disclaim liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence so if your computer gets up and stabs you because of something we've done wrong then we'll take the hit on that.
|
||
WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR:
|
||
• ANY USE OR MISUSE OF MINECRAFT BY YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON;
|
||
• ANY CONTENT THAT IS MADE AVAILABLE BY YOU USING MINECRAFT;
|
||
• ANY BREACH OF THESE TERMS BY YOU;
|
||
• ANY BREACH OF ANY TERMS BY ANY OTHER PERSON.
|
||
TERMINATION
|
||
• If we want we can terminate your right to use Minecraft if you breach these Terms. You can terminate it too, at any time, all you have to do is uninstall Minecraft from your PlayStation®3 system . In any case the paragraphs about "Ownership of Minecraft", "Our Liability" and "General Stuff" will continue to apply even after termination.
|
||
GENERAL STUFF
|
||
• These Terms are subject to any legal rights you might have. Nothing in these Terms will limit any of your rights that may not be excluded under law nor shall it exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury resulting from our negligence nor any fraudulent representation.
|
||
• We may also change these Terms from time to time but those changes will only be effective to the extent that they can legally apply. For example if you only use Minecraft 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 Minecraft that rely on our providing ongoing online services then the new EULA will apply. In that case we may not be able to / don't need to tell you about the changes for them to have effect so you should check back here from time to time so you are aware of any changes to these Terms. We're not going to be unfair about this though - but sometimes the law changes or someone does something that affects other users of Minecraft and we therefore need to put a lid on it.
|
||
• If you come to us with a suggestion for Minecraft or any of our games, that suggestion is made for free. This means we can 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, you must tell us you expect to be paid before you tell us the suggestion.
|
||
• In addition to these Terms we also have some Brand and Asset Usage Guidelines which you can find online.
|
||
• If you break these rules we (or Sony Computer Entertainment) may stop you from using Minecraft. If you don't want to or can't agree to these rules, then you must not buy, download, use or play Minecraft.
|

If there’s anything legal you’re wondering about that isn’t answered from this page, don’t do it and ask us about it. Basically, don’t be ridiculous and we won’t.
