Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Campfire (including Campfire Keeper, Campfire Fireside, or any related service) in any form, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, you must discontinue use immediately. We reserve the right to update these terms at any time; continued use of the platform constitutes acceptance of any changes.

2. Description of Service

Campfire is a community-driven platform consisting of:

• Campfire Keeper — a self-hosted web dashboard for managing Minecraft Java Edition servers, including server creation, configuration, mod management, and multi-user access control
• Campfire Fireside — a desktop application (built with Tauri) that provides a game launcher and integrated server management interface
• The campfire-mc.com web dashboard for account management, downloads, and waitlist registration
• A relay server operated by Campfire that routes encrypted traffic between Campfire Keeper instances and connected clients. The relay is infrastructure we run on your behalf; it is not self-hosted by users.

Campfire is proprietary software. All rights reserved. You may use Campfire in accordance with these Terms of Service.

3. User Accounts

To access certain features of campfire-mc.com (such as downloading releases or joining the waitlist), you may need to create an account. You agree to:

• Provide accurate and complete information when creating your account
• Keep your credentials secure and not share them with others
• Notify us immediately if you suspect unauthorized access to your account
• Be responsible for all activity that occurs under your account

You must be at least 13 years old to create a Campfire account. If you are under 18, you represent that you have your parent or guardian's permission.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree to use Campfire Keeper, Campfire Fireside, and all related services only for lawful purposes and in ways that do not infringe on the rights of others. You must not:

• Use Campfire Keeper or Campfire Fireside to operate servers that violate applicable laws
• Attempt to circumvent security features of the platform
• Distribute malware, cheats, or exploits through Campfire's mod management features
• Use Campfire to manage servers in ways that violate the rights of players, including unauthorized data collection, harassment, or discrimination
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or otherwise attempt to extract proprietary code from Minecraft or Mojang's services through Campfire
• Abuse the Campfire relay service, including sending excessive bandwidth, using it to conduct or facilitate DDoS attacks, or routing illegal traffic through it

5. Relay Usage

Campfire operates a relay server as a free service to route encrypted traffic between Campfire Keeper instances and connected clients. By using the relay, you agree to the following:

• The relay is provided at no cost and on a best-effort basis. We make no uptime guarantees.
• The relay does not store, inspect, or log the contents of encrypted traffic passing through it. It routes packets without reading them.
• Campfire reserves the right to rate-limit, throttle, or restrict relay access for any account or IP address that appears to be abusing the service or degrading performance for other users.
• Persistent abuse of the relay may result in suspension of your campfire-mc.com account.

6. Minecraft and Mojang Compliance

Campfire is an independent, community-developed tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or produced by Mojang Studios or Microsoft Corporation. Minecraft is a trademark of Mojang Studios.

By using Campfire Keeper to run Minecraft servers or Campfire Fireside to launch the game, you agree to comply with:

• The Minecraft End User License Agreement (EULA)
• Mojang's Commercial Usage Guidelines and Brand Guidelines
• All applicable terms from Microsoft regarding Xbox Live and account services

Campfire Fireside uses Microsoft's official OAuth 2.0 authentication API for Minecraft account verification. We do not circumvent, spoof, or otherwise bypass Mojang's authentication systems. Any use of Campfire Keeper or Campfire Fireside that would violate the Minecraft EULA is also a violation of these Terms.

Campfire accesses the Modrinth and CurseForge APIs under the terms of those platforms' API agreements. Content available through those platforms is subject to each mod author's individual licensing terms.

7. Intellectual Property

Campfire's source code is released under the MIT License. You may use, modify, and distribute it in accordance with that license. The Campfire name, logo, and visual identity (including the Campfire Keeper and Campfire Fireside product names) are reserved; you may not use them to misrepresent a fork or derivative as the official Campfire project.

Minecraft, the Minecraft logo, and all associated assets are the intellectual property of Mojang Studios and Microsoft Corporation. Campfire does not include any Minecraft assets and does not claim ownership of anything created by Mojang.

Mods and modpacks accessible through Campfire's integrations belong to their respective authors. Installing a mod through Campfire does not grant you any rights to that mod's code or assets beyond what the mod's own license permits.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties

Campfire Keeper, Campfire Fireside, and all related services are provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the software or relay will be error-free, secure, or continuously available. Use of any Campfire product is at your own risk.

In particular, we make no guarantee that server data will not be lost due to software bugs, hardware failure, or user error. We strongly recommend maintaining regular backups of any Minecraft server data.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Campfire and its contributors shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of or inability to use Campfire Keeper, Campfire Fireside, the relay, or any related service, including but not limited to loss of data, server downtime, relay unavailability, or business interruption, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

10. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to campfire-mc.com accounts that violate these Terms. Termination of your account means you must cease all use of Campfire.

11. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms of Service as the platform evolves. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date and, where appropriate, notify registered users by email. Your continued use of Campfire Keeper, Campfire Fireside, or any related service after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.

12. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with applicable law. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of competent jurisdiction. If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full effect.
