Terms

Proteus is a free skin rendering API run by Sona Interactive. By requesting images from it you agree to the terms below. They are short on purpose.

Using the API

• You may link to and embed Proteus images in any site, app, bot or game client.
• Anonymous use is limited to 300 requests a minute per IP address. If you need more, ask in the Sona Discord.
• Respect the cache headers. They are there so you rarely need to ask twice for the same image.

What is not allowed

• Getting around the rate limit, for example by rotating addresses.
• Sending traffic meant to degrade the service for others.
• Presenting Proteus, or its renders, as an official Mojang or Microsoft product.

Skins and trademarks

Skins belong to the players and artists who made them. Minecraft, its default skins and its player model belong to Mojang. Proteus only draws what a player's public profile already shows, and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to Mojang or Microsoft.

Availability

The routes and parameters in the docs are meant to stay stable. Even so, the service is provided as is, with no uptime guarantee and no warranty of any kind. Sona Interactive is not liable for loss or damage that comes from using it or from it being unavailable.

Changes

These terms may change. The date at the top says when they last did. Access may be limited or blocked for use that breaks them.
