1. Acceptance of these Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of freeserver.host, including this website, the control panel and every game server we provide (together, the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
2. Eligibility and accounts
- You must be at least 16 years old, or have the permission of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms on your behalf.
- The information you provide when registering must be accurate and kept up to date.
- You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secret and for all activity under your account, including actions taken by subusers you invite.
- You must not create multiple accounts to get around resource limits, suspensions or other restrictions.
3. The free service
Free servers are provided at no cost and include the resources shown on our website at the time you create them, currently 3GB RAM and 10GB NVMe storage. Free servers do not entitle you to specific hardware, a specific location or a fixed set of features.
To keep the Service free and fair for everyone, we may change resources, features or locations. Where a change noticeably affects your server, we will try to tell you in advance through the website or control panel.
4. Acceptable use
Your server is meant for hosting a game server and the tools that directly belong to it. You must not use the Service to:
- store, share or distribute illegal content, or content that infringes the rights of others;
- distribute malware, run phishing pages or send spam;
- attack, scan or disrupt other systems, including DDoS attacks, port scanning and brute-force attempts;
- mine cryptocurrency or run other workloads that are unrelated to the game server;
- operate proxies, VPNs, public file hosting or similar services unrelated to your game server;
- try to bypass resource limits, access other users' servers or harm our infrastructure;
- harass, threaten or discriminate against other people, or share any content that sexualises minors.
If we detect activity that endangers the Service or other users, we may stop the affected server immediately.
5. Minecraft and third-party content
freeserver.host is not affiliated with, endorsed by or associated with Mojang AB or Microsoft. "Minecraft" is a trademark of Mojang AB. By running a Minecraft server, you agree to follow the Minecraft EULA and the Minecraft Usage Guidelines.
Mods, plugins and modpacks installed from third-party platforms such as CurseForge, Modrinth, FTB or Technic are subject to their own licenses and terms. We are not responsible for third-party content or its behaviour.
6. Your content
You keep all rights to the worlds, configurations, plugins and other files you upload or create ("Your Content"). You give us a limited permission to store, copy and process Your Content only as far as necessary to operate the Service, for example to run your server, move it between nodes or create backups.
You are responsible for having the rights to everything you upload, and for keeping your own copies of important data.
7. Availability and backups
We aim to keep servers online 24/7, but we cannot guarantee uninterrupted availability. Maintenance, hardware failures, network problems or attacks can cause downtime. Unless the control panel explicitly states otherwise, we are not obligated to keep backups of Your Content. Download backups regularly.
8. Upgrades and paid services
If you buy an upgrade or a paid plan, the price, billing period and any additional conditions shown at checkout apply in addition to these Terms. Statutory consumer rights, such as withdrawal rights where applicable, remain unaffected.
9. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or terminate your server or account if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or if it is necessary to protect the Service or other users. Where reasonable, we will warn you first and give you a chance to fix the problem.
You can stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. After an account or server is deleted, the associated data may be permanently removed and cannot be restored.
10. Disclaimer
To the extent permitted by law, the Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
11. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages, loss of data, loss of profits or loss of in-game progress. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose.
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, in particular liability for intent, gross negligence, or injury to life, body or health.
12. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will announce material changes in advance on the website or in the control panel. If you continue to use the Service after a change takes effect, the updated Terms apply. If you do not agree, you can delete your account.
