Legal
Terms of Service
Effective: October 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of anvil-mc.com and the associated application (the "App" or "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms.
Service Description
The Service allows users to:
- Run Minecraft servers locally on Android devices
- Expose servers to the public internet using FRPS-based tunneling provided through our infrastructure
- Discover compatible mods for their selected server JAR via the Modrinth API, with links to download mods directly from Modrinth's website
- Deliver advertisements and collect anonymized usage statistics to support and improve the Service.
Mod listings are provided for informational purposes only. We do not host, distribute, or take responsibility for any third-party mod content. Downloading and installing mods is done at your own discretion and risk.
As-Is Basis
The free Service is provided "as is" and "as available". We do not guarantee error-free, uninterrupted, or secure operation. If you are a consumer, this does not affect your statutory rights, including the legal guarantee that paid Premium features conform to these Terms and their description (Title 1A of Book 7 of the Dutch Civil Code and equivalent consumer law in your country).
No Warranty
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties not set out in these Terms, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and security protection. This section does not limit any mandatory rights you have as a consumer.
Security Acknowledgement
By using tunneling, your local device becomes accessible from the public internet. This may expose your local network to security threats. You are solely responsible for securing your configuration.
Limitation of Liability
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages, including loss of data, loss of profit or network compromise. Our total liability for direct damages is limited to the amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the event causing the damage. These limitations do not apply to damage caused by our intent or gross negligence (opzet of bewuste roekeloosheid), to death or personal injury, or where applicable law does not allow them.
User Responsibility
You are fully responsible for how you use the Service, the servers you host, and compliance with all applicable local and international laws.
The Service is rated PEGI 3 and is not specifically directed at children under 13. Users under 13 should only use the Service under parental supervision. Parents or guardians who believe a child under 13 has submitted personal data may contact us to request its deletion.
Acceptable Use
Prohibited activities include hosting illegal content, performing network attacks, bypassing security controls, or abusing our infrastructure.
Paid Subscriptions
- Subscriptions are billed on a recurring basis until cancelled. Cancelling stops future renewals; Premium stays active until the end of the period already paid for.
- Payments are non-refundable except where required by law or as described below. Nothing in these Terms limits your statutory consumer rights.
- Google Play purchases: subscriptions bought in the App are sold and billed through Google Play. Cancellations and refunds are handled by Google under the Google Play refund policy, and refund requests should be made through Google Play. We may also issue refunds through Google Play at our discretion.
- Web purchases (Stripe): subscriptions bought through our website are billed through Stripe. You can cancel at any time from the billing portal in your account. Refund requests can be made through our contact page.
- Right of withdrawal (EU/EEA and UK consumers, web purchases): you may withdraw from a web subscription within 14 days of purchase without giving a reason. Because Premium starts immediately at your request, if you withdraw within this period we refund your payment minus an amount proportional to the Premium time already provided. To withdraw, send a clear statement to [email protected] within the 14-day period, for example: "I hereby withdraw from my contract for Anvil-MC Premium, purchased on [date], account [email]." Refunds are made to the original payment method within 14 days of receiving your request. For Google Play purchases, withdrawal and refunds are handled by Google as described above.
- Outside these rights, we may grant refunds at our discretion, for example for requests made shortly after purchase. A discretionary refund does not create an obligation to grant refunds in other cases.
- We may change Premium features for valid reasons, such as security, technical or legal requirements, or improvements to the Service, at no extra cost to you. If a change significantly and negatively affects your access to or use of Premium, we will tell you in advance and you may end your subscription free of charge within 30 days of the change; for web purchases we then refund the unused part of the period already paid for.
- Active subscriptions may grant an 'Ad-Free' experience, removing third-party advertisements from the App interface.
- Promotional Premium time, such as rewards from the Referral Program in Section 09, is not charged, does not renew, and follows the rules of that section.
Referral Program
Anvil-MC runs an optional referral program. Every account can share a personal referral code. When a new user enters that code, or installs through a referral link, and their first paid Premium charge succeeds, the new user and the referrer each receive 30 days of Premium at no charge. The rules below form part of these Terms.
- A code must be entered before the invited user's first Premium payment. Accounts that have ever paid for Premium cannot redeem a code, and each account can be referred once, by one referrer.
- You cannot redeem your own code. Rewards are granted only once the invited user's first non-trial payment has been successfully charged; a free trial counts when it converts to a paid subscription.
- Rewards are delivered as Premium time on your account: as a Premium period if you have no paid subscription, as a deferral of your next charge if you subscribe through Google Play, or as a credit toward future charges if you subscribe through our web checkout. Where a reward cannot be delivered immediately, the days are stored and applied when your paid subscription ends.
- If the invited user's purchase is refunded, charged back or revoked within 30 days, the referral no longer counts and any Premium time from it that has not yet been used may be removed.
- Rewards have no cash value, cannot be exchanged for money, credit or refunds, and cannot be transferred or sold. Rewards do not change the price, billing or cancellation terms of any paid subscription.
- After ten qualifying referrals the referrer's account receives lifetime Premium. "Lifetime" means for as long as Anvil-MC and its Premium features remain available and maintained. We have no obligation to keep the Service, Premium or any specific feature available for any period of time, and lifetime Premium ends without compensation if the Service or Premium is discontinued.
- We may change, suspend or end the referral program, adjust the reward or the lifetime threshold, and withdraw or invalidate any code, including promotional codes we publish, at any time. Ending or changing the program does not remove Premium time that has already been delivered; lifetime Premium remains subject to the availability terms above.
- Codes may not be promoted through spam, misleading advertising, paid placement that suggests an official partnership, or by creating additional accounts. We may reverse rewards, invalidate codes and suspend or terminate accounts involved in fraud, self-referral or other abuse of the program.
How the program works day to day is explained on the referral page.
Termination
We may suspend or terminate access for Terms violations or misuse. If we end the Service or your paid subscription for reasons that are not caused by you, such as infrastructure constraints, we will give reasonable notice where possible and refund the unused part of any period already paid for through our web checkout (Google Play subscriptions are cancelled and refunded through Google Play). We may also reverse referral rewards obtained in breach of Section 09. You may stop using the Service and cancel your subscription at any time.
Third-Party Advertisements
The Service may display advertisements provided by third-party ad networks including Google AdMob, Unity Ads (Unity Technologies), and Meta Audience Network (Meta Platforms). These networks may use device identifiers to deliver personalized ads. We do not endorse, warrant, or assume responsibility for the content, products, or services promoted in these advertisements. Any interactions or transactions with advertisers are solely between you and the third party. See our Privacy Policy for details on how ad data is collected and how to manage your preferences.
Non-Affiliation
The Service is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with Mojang AB, Microsoft, or Modrinth. Minecraft is a trademark of Mojang AB. Modrinth is an independent platform operated by Rinth, Inc.; mod listings displayed in the app are sourced from the Modrinth public API and are subject to Modrinth's own terms and policies.
Legal & Privacy
Personal data is processed per our Privacy Policy. EU/EEA users are presented with an explicit consent mechanism via the Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) before any personalized tracking or advertising occurs, in compliance with GDPR. Consent can be withdrawn at any time via the UMP dialog in app settings. Outside the EEA, analytics and ad personalization are active by default. All users retain the right to access, correct, or request deletion of their personal data.
Changes
We may update these Terms. We will notify you of material changes at least 30 days before they take effect, by email or in the App. If you do not agree, you may cancel your subscription before the change takes effect; continued use after that date means you accept the updated Terms. Price changes for existing subscriptions only apply from the next billing period after notice, and for Google Play subscriptions also follow Google Play's price change process.
Governing Law & Disputes
These Terms are governed by Dutch law. If you are a consumer living in another country, you keep the protection of the mandatory consumer law of that country. Disputes are submitted to the competent court in the Netherlands; as a consumer you may also bring a claim before the competent court where you live. Please contact us first so we can try to resolve the issue.
