Rules for using SPUDZWARE Minecraft hosting, the website, and control panel.
By using SPUDZWARE (“we”, “us”, “our”) — including this website, checkout, Discord support, and the web control panel — you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
You must be able to form a binding contract in your region. If you use Spudzware for a group or organization, you represent that you have authority to accept these Terms for them.
Spudzware provides Minecraft server hosting and a dashboard to create, start, stop, and manage game servers (Java and/or Bedrock, plugins, mods, or addons as offered). Features, plans, and availability may change as we improve the product.
Tacot (tacot.org) is a separate Discord bot product. These Terms cover Spudzware hosting only, unless we say otherwise.
Panel access may use Discord login or other methods we enable. You are responsible for activity under your account and for keeping access credentials secure.
Provide accurate information when ordered. Do not share your panel login or console access with people you do not trust. Notify us via Support if you believe your account was compromised.
Hosting is offered by plan (for example Free, Starter, Pro, Ultra, Network) as shown on Pricing and checkout. Prices are typically in USD and may change; changes apply to new periods unless we state otherwise.
Free plan is ad-supported and best-effort: limited RAM, one server, and advertisements or promotional content in the control panel (and similar surfaces we label). Free capacity may be throttled, paused, or withdrawn if the host is overloaded or abused. Paid plans remove free-tier panel ads and unlock higher limits after successful payment.
Payments are processed by Stripe (or another processor we list at checkout). We do not store full card numbers. Failed, chargebacked, or fraudulent payments may pause or cancel service.
Unless a plan says otherwise, service is prepaid for the billing period. Non-payment or expired subscription may stop your server and, after a reasonable grace period we set, delete server data.
Because hosting is a digital, immediately usable service, sales are generally final. We may offer a goodwill refund or credit for serious outages caused by us, billing errors, or other cases we decide at our discretion. Chargebacks without contacting support first may result in permanent account closure.
You agree not to use Spudzware to:
We may suspend or terminate servers and accounts that violate these rules, with or without notice when we reasonably believe harm is ongoing.
You keep ownership of your world files, plugins, mods, and configs that you upload or create. You grant us a limited license to host, back up, and operate that content only as needed to run the service.
You are responsible for the legality of content on your server and for player behavior on servers you control. Keep your own offline backups of important worlds — we may offer backups on paid plans, but they are not a guarantee against all data loss.
We aim for reliable uptime, but hosting is provided “as is” without a formal SLA unless we sell one in writing. Maintenance, upstream network issues, hardware failure, or force majeure can interrupt service. We will try to communicate major outages through Discord or the site when practical.
You may stop using Spudzware at any time and cancel by following the process we provide (panel and/or support). We may suspend or terminate for Terms violations, non-payment, abuse, legal risk, or if we shut down the product.
After termination or non-payment, we may delete server files after a grace period. Export your worlds before canceling if you need them.
To the fullest extent allowed by law, Spudzware and its operators are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, lost profits, or lost data arising from use of the service. Our total liability for any claim related to the service is limited to the amount you paid us for the hosting period in which the claim arose (or USD $50 if you paid nothing).
Some regions do not allow certain limitations; in those places, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
We may update these Terms. The “Last updated” date will change when we do. Continued use after changes means you accept the new Terms. For material changes, we may also note them on the site or in Discord.
Questions about these Terms: use Support (Discord) or the contact method listed on spudzware.net.
