What owning a Java product license actually means, explained simply
Last updated 13 September 2026
Buying a Java product gets you a license to use it, not ownership of the actual files. This page explains what that means day-to-day, for the full legal wording see our Terms of Service.
Your license lets you use the product inside Roblox experiences you own or directly develop for. It's non-exclusive and non-transferable, meaning it's tied to you (or your group) specifically, and can't just be handed off to someone else, unless it's gone through our proper transfer process.
If you're the license holder and you leave, get removed, or resign from the group that owns the license, all Java assets need to be removed from that project. The license doesn't carry over with you personally, it stays with the account or group it was originally granted to.
Breaking these terms can mean:
You need to be at least 13 to use or purchase Java products. If you're under 13, you can only access our content with a parent or guardian's supervision and consent.
For the full legal terms, see our Terms of Service.
