+Terms of Use 
+
+What You Get For Purchasing 
+
+When you purchase Minecraft you do so as is, be it in the early stages of 
+development or already fully released. Subsequent updates are only an added 
+bonus and not a guarantee, as icing on a cake. Purchases during the development 
+of the game are discounted and include the full game upon release. 
+
+As we at Mojang strive towards releasing updates for our projects we cannot 
+guarantee that any project will ever be completed and/or provided support for. 
+There's always the risk of a project being discontinued at any time. 
+
+The One Major Rule 
+
+Do not distribute anything we've made. This includes, but not limited to, the 
+client or the server software for the game. This also includes modified versions 
+of anything we've made. Also, you may not resell any gift codes or licence keys 
+- but of course you can give gift codes as gifts. This is necessary so that we 
+can help stop piracy and fraud - and especially users buying keys that have been 
+fraudulently obtained. 
+
+In order to ensure integrity of the game, we need all game downloads to come 
+from a single central source: us. We hope you understand. It's also important 
+for us that 3rd party tools/services don't seem "too official" as we can't 
+guarantee their quality. Make sure to read through our brand guidelines. If you 
+wish to make something pertaining to anything we've made we're humbled, but 
+please make sure that it can't be interpreted as being official. Do not make 
+commercial use of anything we've made unless specifically authorized by us in 
+our brand and assets usage guidelines (which you should read as each of these 
+policies form part of these Terms of Use). 
+
+What You Can Do 
+
+If you've bought the game, you may play around with it and modify it. We'd 
+appreciate it if you didn't use this for griefing, though, and remember not to 
+distribute the changed versions of our software. Basically, mods (or plugins, or 
+tools) are cool (you can distribute those), hacked versions of the Minecraft 
+client or server are not (you can't distribute those). 
+
+Any tools you write for the game from scratch belongs to you. Other than 
+commercial use (unless specifically authorized by us in our brand and assets 
+usage guidelines - for instance you are allowed to put ads on your YouTube 
+videos containing Minecraft footage), you're free to do whatever you want with 
+screenshots and videos of the game, but don't just rip art resources and pass 
+them around, that's no fun. Plugins for the game also belong to you and you can 
+do whatever you want with them, as long as you don't sell them for money. We 
+reserve the final say regarding what constitutes a tool/plugin and what doesn't. 
+
+Other 
+
+We reserve the right to change this agreement at any time with or without notice, 
+with immediate and/or retroactive effect. 
+
+Any suggestions made are assumed to be offered for free unless otherwise agreed 
+before the suggestion was made. We're not going to put up a huge EULA. We're 
+trying to be open and honest, and we hope people treat us the same way back. 
+
+If there's anything legal you're wondering about that isn't answered from this 
+page, don't do it and ask us about it. Basically, don't be ridiculous and we won't.

+Privacy Policy 
+
+When you purchase a game from us, you fill in your personal/company details. You 
+agree that we store and use your information in our organization to complete the 
+agreement towards you. You have the right, according to the law 
+Personuppgiftslagen (PUL) in Sweden to know about the information registered 
+about you. If it is wrong, insufficient or irrelevant you have the right to make 
+sure that it gets corrected or removed.
