Terms of Service for CraftDroid

1. Agreement to Terms

By downloading, installing, accessing, or using CraftDroid (the "Application"), you agree to be legally bound by these Terms of Service (the "Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not install or use the Application.

CraftDroid is an Android software utility providing local containerized environments (PRoot / Box64) to facilitate the execution of Minecraft Java, Bedrock, and Crossplay server software on mobile hardware.

2. Compliance with Mojang Studios EULA & Guidelines

Your use of any Minecraft server software downloaded, configured, or executed through CraftDroid is strictly conditioned upon your acceptance of and ongoing compliance with Mojang Studios' official terms:

• Minecraft End User License Agreement (EULA): Before initializing any Java Edition or Crossplay server, you are required by Mojang Studios to accept their EULA by setting eula=true. You can review the full EULA at https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/eula.
• Minecraft Commercial Usage Guidelines: If you accept donations, monetize server access, sell virtual cosmetic items, or run commercial services on your server, you must adhere strictly to Mojang's Commercial Usage Guidelines. CraftDroid has zero involvement in and accepts no liability for server monetization schemes.
• Bedrock Dedicated Server EULA: Bedrock server binaries provided via Mojang's CDN are governed by the Microsoft/Mojang Bedrock Dedicated Server terms.

3. User Responsibility & Content Liability

CraftDroid functions solely as an administrative execution engine. You are solely and exclusively responsible for:

• Server Management & Access Controls: Managing server operators (ops.json), player whitelists, banned players/IPs, and server ports.
• In-Game Conduct & Player Chat: All interactions, communications, chat logs, and player behaviors occurring within any server you host. The developer has no ability to moderate, monitor, or access your hosted server.
• Third-Party Plugins, Mods & Add-Ons: All modifications, plugins (Spigot, Paper, Purpur, GeyserMC), Fabric mods, and Bedrock behavior/resource packs downloaded or imported by you. You assume all risks associated with malicious or buggy third-party content.
• World Backups & Data Loss: Ensuring adequate world backups via the in-app backup utility or Storage Access Framework. The developer is not liable for world file corruption, power loss, or unrecoverable save states.

4. Mobile Hardware & Thermal Protection Disclaimer

By using CraftDroid, you explicitly acknowledge and agree that:

• CraftDroid provides automated thermal monitoring tools (such as thermal auto-shutdown at configurable thresholds), but the ultimate responsibility for operating conditions rests with you.
• You must ensure proper ventilation, avoid covering the device or using insulating cases during intensive hosting, and avoid operating in excessively hot ambient environments.
• To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, TheWhiteCarp disclaims any and all liability for device overheating, battery wear, hardware damage, thermal throttling, or component failure resulting from prolonged or improper server hosting on mobile hardware.

5. Third-Party Network Services (Playit.gg)

CraftDroid provides built-in integration with the Playit.gg tunneling service to enable multiplayer connectivity over the public internet without port forwarding:

• Your use of Playit.gg is subject to the Playit.gg Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
• TheWhiteCarp does not own, operate, or guarantee the uptime, bandwidth, latency, or availability of the Playit.gg routing infrastructure.

6. Server Credits, Ad-Supported Runtime, Monetization Changes & Updates

Ad-supported builds of CraftDroid distributed on Google Play utilize an in-app Server Credit and active runtime clock system governed by the following terms:

• No Monetary Value & Non-Transferability: Server Credits (including starter credits, rewarded video ad grants, and temporary no-fill runtime extensions) are purely promotional, non-monetary allowances stored locally on your device. Server Credits have no cash or real-world monetary value, do not constitute personal property or stored value, and cannot be sold, redeemed for cash, refunded, or transferred across devices or accounts.
• Local Storage & Loss Upon Reset/Uninstall: Because CraftDroid operates without user accounts or cloud databases, your Stored Credits and Active Clock balance reside solely in local device storage (excluded from cloud backup). Uninstalling CraftDroid, switching devices, or clearing Application Data permanently resets all Stored Credits and remaining runtime, with no right to restoration or compensation.
• Automatic Server Shutdown on Expiration: While a server is running, your Active Clock counts down and automatically consumes available Stored Credits as needed. When both the Active Clock and Stored Credits reach zero (00:00:00), CraftDroid automatically issues a graceful server stop command. You are responsible for maintaining sufficient credits for uninterrupted sessions and backing up your worlds regularly.
• Right to Modify Credit Rates, Caps & Payment Models: We reserve the right, in our sole discretion and at any time via future Application updates, to modify the active runtime granted per credit, adjust starter grants, change maximum credit storage caps or cooldowns, alter advertising formats, or introduce optional paid features, in-app purchases, or subscriptions (such as ad-free or extended hosting tiers). Any paid offerings introduced in the future will be clearly disclosed prior to purchase via Google Play Billing.
• Mandatory Application Updates: To maintain engine compatibility, security, and uniform Server Credit or payment terms, CraftDroid checks for updates via Google Play while your servers are offline. After a brief grace period following a new release (or immediately for critical updates), you may be required to update CraftDroid to the latest version on Google Play before starting new server sessions.

7. Open Source Software & Attributions

CraftDroid incorporates, orchestrates, or interfaces with several open-source technologies. We gratefully recognize these contributions:

8. Disclaimer of Warranties

CRAFTDROID IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APPLICATION, THIRD-PARTY AD INVENTORY, OR UPSTREAM SERVER REPOSITORIES WILL OPERATE ERROR-FREE, UNINTERRUPTED, OR FREE FROM BUGS OR NETWORK INTERRUPTIONS.

9. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE DEVELOPER (THEWHITECARP) BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, SERVER CREDITS, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES RESULTING FROM (A) YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE APPLICATION; (B) HARDWARE DEGRADATION OR BATTERY WEAR; (C) ANY THIRD-PARTY SERVICES (PLAYIT.GG, GOOGLE ADMOB, GOOGLE PLAY, OR UPSTREAM SERVER REPOSITORIES); OR (D) WORLD FILE CORRUPTION, AUTOMATIC RUNTIME EXPIRATION SHUTDOWNS, OR DATA LOSS.

10. Amendments, Governing Law & Severability

We may revise these Terms from time to time by posting an updated version at https://thewhitecarp.github.io/CraftDroid.github.io/terms.html with an updated "Last Updated" date. Continued use of CraftDroid following an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of your applicable jurisdiction without regard to conflict of law principles. If any provision of these Terms is deemed unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of remaining provisions.
