These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the PatronLauncher software, the PClient in-game client, this website (patronlauncher.net) and the related Discord server (together, the “Service”), provided by the PatronLauncher team (“we”, “us”).

1. Acceptance and scope

By downloading, installing or using the Service, or by visiting the website, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Service and software

PatronLauncher is an independent launcher that starts Minecraft: Java Edition and manages versions and mod loaders. The Service does not provide the game, a game license or game content. Game files are downloaded by the user directly from Mojang/Microsoft’s official servers to the user’s computer.

The Service is free and provided “as is”. We may change, suspend or discontinue the Service or any feature at any time without notice.

3. License

The source code of PatronLauncher and PClient is licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 (AGPL-3.0) and subject to its terms. The PatronLauncher and PClient names, logos, version cover art and the visual design of this website are not covered by the AGPL; they belong to us and may not be used without permission. Forks must use their own name and logo.

4. Minecraft and third parties

PatronLauncher is not an official Minecraft product; it is not approved by or associated with Mojang AB or Microsoft. “Minecraft” is a trademark of Mojang AB. Playing Minecraft online requires a valid Minecraft: Java Edition license and is subject to the Minecraft EULA and the Microsoft Services Agreement. You may not use the Service in a way that violates the Minecraft EULA or Microsoft’s terms.

The Service interacts with third-party services such as Microsoft/Mojang, Adoptium, Modrinth, CurseForge, Fabric, Quilt, Forge, NeoForge and Discord. Their own terms and privacy policies apply; we are not responsible for them. Mods, resource packs and similar content you download through the launcher are subject to their owners’ licenses.

5. Accounts and age

The Service currently requires no PatronLauncher account. Signing in with your Microsoft account happens on Microsoft’s own page; your password is never transmitted to us. The “local player” feature is for single-player and local/LAN testing only; it does not grant access to online servers that require authentication and may not be used to play without a license.

The Service is not intended for children under 13 (16 in the EU, or the minimum age in your country). If you are a minor, you may use the Service only with the consent of a parent or guardian.

6. Acceptable use

You may not use the Service to: (a) violate the law, the Minecraft EULA or third-party terms; (b) distribute cheats, exploits or tools that give unfair advantage over other players; (c) spread malware; (d) damage, overload or interfere with the Service, the website or its APIs, or reverse-engineer it to extract secrets (except as permitted by the AGPL); (e) distribute fake or modified builds under the PatronLauncher name or logo; (f) abuse support channels (spam, harassment, false reports).

7. User content

For content you send us via the support form, Discord or other channels (text, log files, images), you grant us the right to use it solely to resolve your request and improve the Service. You are responsible for what you submit; do not submit content that infringes others’ rights.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT AND UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION. The software may affect your game data, worlds or files; keeping backups is your responsibility.

9. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, ACCOUNT SUSPENSION OR LOST PROFITS) ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE. Our total liability is in any case limited to the amount you paid us for the Service (zero, as it is free). Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations; in that case our liability is limited to the minimum permitted by law.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your use of the Service in breach of these Terms or your violation of law or third-party rights.

11. Suspension and termination

If we believe you have breached these Terms, we may suspend or terminate your access to the Service (including the Discord server and support channels) without notice. You may stop using the Service at any time by uninstalling the software. Sections 3, 8, 9, 10 and 13 survive termination.

12. Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes are announced by updating the “last updated” date on this page and, where appropriate, via news or Discord. Continued use of the Service after a change means you accept the updated Terms.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, without prejudice to mandatory consumer-protection rules of your country of residence. The courts of Istanbul have jurisdiction over disputes. If any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions stay in effect. These Terms are the entire agreement between us regarding the Service.

14. Contact

Questions: the support form or our Discord server.
