## Forking/Redistributing/Custom builds policy
-Do whatever you want, we don't care. Just follow the license. If you have any questions about this feel free to ask in an issue.
+We don't care what you do with your fork/custom build as long as you do the following as a basic courtesy:
+- Follow the terms of the [license](LICENSE) (not just a courtesy, but also a legal responsibility)
+- Make it clear that your fork is not PolyMC and is not endorsed by or affiliated with the PolyMC project (https://polymc.org).
+- Go through [CMakeLists.txt](CMakeLists.txt) and change PolyMC's API keys to your own or set them to empty strings (`""`) to disable them (this way the program will still compile but the functionality requiring those keys will be disabled).
+
+If you have any questions or want any clarification on the above conditions please make an issue and ask us.
+
+Be aware that if you build this software without removing the provided API keys in [CMakeLists.txt](CMakeLists.txt) you are accepting the following terms and conditions:
+ - [Microsoft Identity Platform Terms of Use](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/microsoft-identity-platform/terms-of-use)
+ - [CurseForge 3rd Party API Terms and Conditions](https://support.curseforge.com/en/support/solutions/articles/9000207405-curse-forge-3rd-party-api-terms-and-conditions)
+
+If you do not agree with these terms and conditions, then remove the associated API keys from the [CMakeLists.txt](CMakeLists.txt) file by setting them to an empty string (`""`).
