Terms of Service

Introduction

These Terms of Service ("Terms") explain the services we provide, including access to certain software, features, and content. By accessing or using our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

In these Terms, "we", "our", "ourselves", and "us" refer to Project City Build (PCB), an unincorporated association based in, Australia.

"You" and "your" refer to you, the user.

It's important that you read these Terms in their entirety to understand your rights and obligations.

Minecraft End User Licence Agreement (EULA)

By using our services, you agree to comply with the Minecraft End User Licence Agreement (EULA). PCB is not affiliated with Minecraft, Mojang AB, or Microsoft Corporation. We are an independent service, and the use of our server does not grant you any rights with respect to Minecraft or its associated entities.

Non-affiliation disclaimer

NOT AN OFFICIAL MINECRAFT SERVICE. NOT APPROVED BY OR ASSOCIATED WITH MOJANG OR MICROSOFT.

1. Related documents

We also have a Privacy Policy, Community Rules, and these other policies that apply to your use of our services and are incorporated into these terms. You should read these policies - we’ve worked hard to make them simple and clear, and they contain important information about your use of our services.

Together, these rules make PCB possible, and they matter to us. If you believe others aren’t following them, please let us know by reporting it to us.

2. Age requirements and responsibility of parents and legal guardians

By accessing our services, you confirm that you meet the minimum age required by the laws in your country.

 If you’re a parent or legal guardian, and you allow your child (who must meet the minimum age for your country) to use the services, then these Terms also apply to you, and you’re responsible for your child’s activity on the services, including donations made by them.

3. Our services

PCB provides a Minecraft server and related services that allow users to interact, build, and participate in our community. We strive to offer an enjoyable and safe environment for all players. Our services include access to our Minecraft server, website, and other related features.

PCB Account

To access certain features of our services, you may need to create a PCB account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account information and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorised use of your account or any other breach of security.

Donations and payments

Donations to PCB are entirely voluntary and are not required to access our services. By making a donation, you acknowledge that it is a gift and not a payment for any goods or services. We do not guarantee any material benefit in exchange for the donation; however, we may offer in-game perks at our discretion as a token of appreciation for your support.

As these payments are a donation, we are unable to offer refunds in most cases, unless required by law.

7. Limitation of liability

We don't exclude or limit our liability to you where it would be illegal to do so. In countries where the below types of exclusions aren't allowed, we're responsible to you only for losses and damages that are a reasonably foreseeable result of our failure to use reasonable care and skill or our material breach of our contract with you. This doesn't affect consumer rights that can't be waived or limited by any contract or agreement.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, PCB shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenues, whether incurred directly or indirectly, arising from your use of the services or these Terms.

8. Copyright

All content on our services is protected by copyright laws and international treaties. You may not copy, distribute, transmit, display, perform, reproduce, publish, licence, create derivative works from, transfer, or sell any information or services obtained from our services without our prior written consent.

Some of our services include tools and software that we have developed and released as open-source. Each of these open-source repositories is governed by its own specific license, which dictates the terms of commercial use, modification, distribution, and other rights. You are responsible for reviewing and complying with the license terms associated with each open-source project. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the applicable open-source licenses, the terms of the open-source licenses will prevail solely with respect to the open-source components.
