Terms of use
These terms are deliberately short. Use the catalog, install the packs, and do not use the project to break Horizon's rules or the law.
Effective 2026-11-11
What xHorizon is
xHorizon is an independent catalog of modpacks for the Horizon game, plus a launcher that installs them. It is not affiliated with Mojang, Microsoft, or the Horizon project, and it is not endorsed by them.
The catalog lists mod identifiers, versions, licenses, and SHA-256 digests. Mod files are downloaded from the official Horizon registry or the author's release page. We do not host other people's mod files.
Accounts and ownership
Playing Horizon requires a Microsoft account that owns Minecraft: Java Edition. That check is part of the game and the official client. xHorizon does not bypass, patch, or simulate it, and using the catalog does not grant a license to the game.
You are responsible for keeping your account secure. xHorizon does not ask for your password and does not store session tokens.
Licenses
The xHorizon site and pack manifests are released under MIT unless a page says otherwise. Mods keep their own licenses; some are non-commercial. The license list on each pack page is part of the pack and must be kept when you redistribute a manifest.
Game assets, trademarks, and third-party artwork remain the property of their owners. The site uses only its own generated icons and screenshots taken by us.
Acceptable use
Do not use the site or launcher to distribute malware, cheats, or content that violates a mod license. Do not attempt to overload the service, scrape it at a rate that degrades it for others, or misrepresent an unofficial pack as an official Horizon release.
Server owners may set their own rules. A pack marked server-safe is a statement about its mods, not a permission to use it on someone else's server.
No warranty
The catalog and launcher are provided as-is, without warranty of any kind. Packs can fail to build, mods can be revoked, and a game update can break a profile. We test what we can and document what we cannot.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, xHorizon is not liable for lost worlds, lost data, account actions taken by a server, or indirect damages. Back up your worlds; the launcher keeps profiles separate, but no software is a backup.
Changes and contact
We may update these terms as the product changes. The date above is the effective date. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.
