3. Prohibited conduct
False or misleading submissions
Do not submit servers you do not own or are not authorised to list. Do not provide false server names, descriptions, or contact information.
Infrastructure abuse
Do not attempt to overload, scrape at excessive rates, or otherwise interfere with the Service’s infrastructure. Do not submit servers for the purpose of amplifying polling traffic against a target.
Circumventing opt-out
Do not attempt to access, reconstruct, or distribute player data for players who have opted out. Do not use the Service as a mechanism to track individuals who have exercised their right to erasure.
Illegal content
Do not submit servers whose primary purpose is distributing illegal content, facilitating illegal activity, or targeting protected groups. Listings that violate applicable law will be removed immediately.
Intellectual property violations
Do not submit server names or descriptions that infringe third-party trademarks or copyrights. Mojang Studios and Microsoft trademarks must be used in accordance with Mojang’s brand and asset guidelines.
Spam
Do not submit duplicate listings or artificially inflate a server’s listing prominence through repeated submissions.
4. Server operator responsibilities
Server operators who appear in the directory are responsible for:
- Ensuring their server’s own data practices (chat logs, plugin data, player records) comply with applicable laws including UK GDPR, COPPA, and any local data protection law relevant to their players
- Complying with Mojang’s End User Licence Agreement and brand guidelines
- Promptly informing us at abuse@clan.me if they believe listing their server is legally impermissible in their jurisdiction
5. Enforcement
We reserve the right to remove any listing, revoke any edit token, and block any IP address at our sole discretion. Removal requests from server owners are processed within 5 minutes. Abuse reports are reviewed within 24 hours.
