Terms of Service
Knight Keep is operated by Kyle P. Walker. Last updated September 2026.
Summary in plain language. We rent you a game server on our own hardware. We do our best
to keep it running, but we are a small operation and we do not promise uptime. You are
responsible for what you run and for keeping your own backups. Either of us can end the
arrangement.
1. What the service is
Knight Keep provides managed game server hosting: an allocated share of memory, CPU and disk
on our hardware, plus a control panel to manage your server.
2. Best effort — there is no SLA
We do not guarantee uptime and we do not offer a service level agreement. Servers run on
owner-operated hardware behind a residential internet connection, routed through a rented
edge server. Outages, maintenance and hardware failure will happen. If guaranteed uptime
matters to you, use a datacenter host — we would rather say so now than take your money.
3. Fees, renewal and cancellation
Plans are billed monthly in advance and continue until you cancel. Cancelling stops the next
charge; your server stays available until the end of the period you have paid for. Partial
months are not pro-rated, and fees already paid are non-refundable except where the law
requires otherwise.
4. Your data and your backups
You are responsible for your own backups. We may take backups for our own operational
reasons, but we do not guarantee they exist, are current, or can be restored. Server data is
deleted after cancellation or non-payment, so export anything you want to keep first.
5. Game publishers' terms
Your server is also subject to the game publisher's own terms. Running a Minecraft server
requires you to accept Mojang's End User Licence Agreement (https://aka.ms/MinecraftEULA).
You accept those terms directly with the publisher. Knight Keep is not affiliated with,
endorsed by or sponsored by Mojang, Microsoft, Iron Gate or any other publisher.
6. Acceptable use
You may not use a Knight Keep server to break the law, to store or distribute unlawful
material, to attack or gain unauthorised access to systems you do not own, to send spam, to
mine cryptocurrency, or to interfere with other customers or our infrastructure. We may
suspend a server immediately if we believe it is being used in these ways.
7. Resource limits
Each plan has fixed memory, CPU and disk limits. A server that exceeds its memory allocation
may be stopped automatically to protect others on the same machine. We do not oversell — when
a plan reaches capacity we stop selling it rather than degrading everyone.
8. Player IP addresses
Traffic reaches your server through our edge network, so your server sees a single upstream
address rather than individual player addresses. Per-player IP bans will not work as you may
expect; use in-game username bans.
9. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or terminate service for non-payment, for breach of these terms, or where
continuing would put our infrastructure or other customers at risk. You may cancel at any
time, for any reason.
10. Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim is limited to the
amount you paid us in the three months before the claim arose. We are not liable for
indirect or consequential damages, including lost data, lost progress or lost profits.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. Material changes will be shown to you before they take effect;
continuing to use the service afterwards means you accept them.
