API Policy

Scope

These policies cover BGHDDevelopment® LLC’s Spigot/Minecraft addons and FivePD/FiveM resources, together with the related documentation, downloads, licensing, and support provided through this website. Individual policies below define any narrower scope.

Separate Public Safety Policies: BerkeleyCrime and LosAngelesCrime are not covered by these game-resource policies. Their websites, apps, public safety data, and related services have their own policies, available on BerkeleyCrime and LosAngelesCrime.

This policy concerns the FateUHC Java API and any documented API supplied with our Minecraft or FivePD resources. It does not authorize access to BerkeleyCrime or LosAngelesCrime data or APIs. Those projects have separate policies on their own websites.

FateUHC Java API

The FateUHC API is a Java integration interface for supported FateUHC functionality. Use the published documentation and the license accompanying the API artifact. Running an integration does not replace the requirement to hold a valid license for the underlying paid resource.

A local Java method call is not a hosted web API request. This policy does not impose an invented web-request quota or require a separate web API key for ordinary Java API use. Compatibility depends on the resource and API version documented for the integration.

Integrations, Distribution & Attribution

Build and distribute integrations within the permissions of the applicable API and resource licenses. Do not bundle proprietary resource files, distribute license credentials, or imply that your addon is an official BGHDDevelopment product without authorization. Keep required copyright and license notices.

Open-source license permissions take precedence over conflicting restrictions in this policy. Publishing a free or paid integration does not by itself grant rights to redistribute the underlying resource. Where the applicable license does not grant the rights your project needs, contact us for permission before distribution.

Hosted Endpoints & License Validation

The DRM license service is separate from the local Java API. All paid resources use an internet-connected license system; it is intended for authorized resource validation, not as a general-purpose public API. Do not probe ownership identifiers, extract or share license keys, bypass validation, or deliberately overload the service.

The license system collects plugin name, starting time, and ownership ID, may collect the server IP address, and returns a license key. Collected server IP addresses are kept only as necessary for licensing, support, and abuse prevention. The Privacy & Cookie Policy explains this processing.

If we separately document a hosted endpoint for developer use, follow that endpoint’s published access conditions and limits. Undocumented endpoints are not a promise of public access or future compatibility.

Security & Responsible Use

Validate inputs, handle errors, protect secrets, and respect your users’ privacy when developing integrations. You are responsible for your addon and its handling of player or server data. If you find a security problem, report it privately to ceo@bghddevelopment.com with enough detail to investigate, without exposing other users’ data or disrupting services.

Support, Changes & Rights

API behavior may change between versions. Review the latest reference and test integrations against the resource version you support. Any support or compatibility promise supplied with your purchase continues to apply.

Nothing here removes mandatory consumer rights, applicable open-source permissions, or rights under an existing written agreement. Material policy revisions apply prospectively with any notice required by law.
