Grade A+ — Highly protective (score 100/100)
Minecraft's EULA is highly protective, explicitly providing notice for changes and deferring to the Microsoft Services Agreement for privacy and account management.
Protective terms with clear notice of changes and no forced arbitration.
In that case we'll inform you of the change before it takes effect, either by posting a notice on our website or by other reasonable means.
The company promises to provide advance notice before updating the terms.
The Microsoft Services Agreement says “Your Content remains Your Content”, and that applies to Minecraft. We don't own the original stuff that you create.
You retain ownership of your original user-generated content.
We reserve the right to take down any content in our discretion.
The company maintains broad authority to remove content as they see fit.
If you decide to cancel your Realm after you have already purchased it, your cancellation will be subject to the applicable store or platform rules.
Cancellation of subscriptions is handled by the platform where you purchased the service.
