Before deploying OptiMin in a production environment (public server, shared infrastructure, hosted platform), you must use a clean and verified installation.

A "clean installation" means:

• A freshly downloaded Minecraft server/client
• A freshly installed Fabric Loader
• Only the officially listed OptiMin mods
• No leftover configuration files from previous modpacks
• No unknown or unverified third-party modifications

Failure to start from a clean environment may result in:

• Leakage of sensitive Minecraft data
• Exposure of server IP addresses
• Exposure of authentication/session tokens
• Compromised configuration files
• Accidental logging of player-related information

The following data should always be treated as sensitive:

• Server IP addresses
• Player UUIDs
• Session tokens
• Authentication data
• Server configuration files
• Voice chat keys and networking configuration
• Essential session data
• Local world backups containing player information

Never publish these publicly. Never commit them to GitHub. Never share them in issue reports.

Before going live:

• Verify all mods are official releases
• Remove debug logs
• Delete old crash reports
• Clear /logs and /crash-reports folders
• Regenerate voice chat keys if previously used
• Review server.properties
• Check file permissions on hosted machines

If you discover a security issue related to this modpack:

• Do NOT open a public GitHub issue
• Contact the maintainer privately
• Provide clear reproduction steps
• Include only necessary logs (with sensitive data removed)

OptiMin is a performance-focused modpack.
Security of your environment ultimately depends on your hosting setup, server configuration, and operational practices.

Always treat production environments as sensitive infrastructure.
