Privacy Policy

Welcome! This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, protect and share your personal information through our Services.

Please read the following Privacy Policy carefully and thoroughly and do not use our apps or Discord communities with the app unless you agree to these terms.

In addition to this Privacy Policy, our Terms of Use also apply. You can view them here: ToS.

Definitions

When we refer to "developers", "us" or "we", we mean the developers of the products offered.

When we refer to "service" or "application", we mean the products published by the developers.

When we refer to "Discord", we mean Discord Inc, located at 444 De Haro Street #200, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA.

The meaning of the words does not differ and is not changed by the use of plural or singular.

Data collected by us

As described below, our services receive, process or store content (including but not limited to metadata and/or message content) received via the Discord API or other means of transmission according to the respective settings of the registered Discord communities. The transmission may, where appropriate, take place through the use of so-called commands, sending messages in Discord channels accessible to the Discord Bot or sharing content with developers.

- Discord Community IDs: The Discord Community ID of Discord communities that use our applications may be stored and linked to data provided by the owners or administrators of the community. This includes Discord channel IDs, Discord role IDs and other setting options provided, such as the preferred language of a Discord community.

- Temporarily Stored Content: During the operation of our services, all types of messages or Discord communities with their owners and number of members or error messages may be temporarily stored. This is for analysis purposes and is necessary for the full provision of our applications. This data is completely deleted when the applications are restarted.

- Discord ID - Blacklist: To protect our applications, we may store Discord IDs (e.g. of Discord users or Discord communities) to exclude them from using the services. 

- Some features of the application may be used to create leaderboards of Discord communities or users. These leaderboards can be accessed by users via a public command of the Application and typically contain the names of the various Discord communities or users and the data displayed in the leaderboard, such as score and rank. The mention in this leaderboard can be deleted upon request.

- "top.gg" User data: For some of our services, you have the option to leave a so-called "upvote" on the top.gg website https://top.gg/ every 12 hours. This is voluntary and may give you access to additional features of our services. We share the content transmitted by top.gg with the provider https://webhook-topgg.com/ through which we receive the upvotes. These two providers have their own terms of use, which you can view at: top.gg: https://top.gg/terms and webhook-topgg: https://webhook-topgg.com/tos.html. Please contact these two providers (top.gg: support@top.gg, webhook-topgg: support@webhook-topgg.com) with any questions about upvotes. We link and store your Discord ID with information about your upvotes, such as the time of your last upvote and statistics about your upvotes. 

What we use your data for

- Provision of services. We use your data to provide you with our services.

- Backup copies. We may store your data as a so-called "backup copy".

How your data is shared

- In Discord itself. When you use our services in Discord communities, the data stored there may be reflected in the form of a message or similar type of transmission. Who can access this data is determined by who has access to a particular community. Server owners or administrators set these permissions and determine whether a server requires an invitation link or is open and accessible to everyone. And these permissions, like the size of the server, can change over time. 

- With our provider. The data is shared with our hosting provider, Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25 91710 Gunzenhausen (Germany), where our services are also hosted. Hetzner Online GmbH's Terms of Use (https://www.hetzner.com/legal/terms-and-conditions) and Privacy Policy (https://www.hetzner.com/legal/privacy-policy) apply in addition to these terms.

- Some features of the application may be used to create leaderboards of Discord communities or users. These leaderboards can be accessed by users via a public command of the application and usually contain the names of the different Discord communities or users as well as the data displayed in the leaderboard, such as the score and rank.

- "Top.gg" and "webhook-topgg". For some of our services, you have the option to leave what is called an "upvote" on the top.gg website, https://top.gg/, every 12 hours. This is voluntary and may give you access to additional features of our services. We share the content submitted by top.gg with the provider https://webhook-topgg.com/ through which we receive the upvotes. These two providers have their own terms of use, which you can view at: top.gg: https://top.gg/terms and webhook-topgg: https://webhook-topgg.com/tos.html. Please contact these two providers (top.gg: support@top.gg, webhook-topgg: support@webhook-topgg.com) if you have any questions about the upvotes.

Duration of storage

- Discord Community Data. Unless otherwise stated, data held by and about you will be retained until deleted by the server owners or administrators. Deletion may be done by the command of a service itself or via a request through our contact options through us.

- User Data. Unless otherwise stated, we retain data held by and about you until it is deleted. Deletion may be done by the command of a service itself or via a request through our contact options through us.

Copies of the stored data may be made for testing purposes or in preparation for updates to the service and deleted after the time required for the aforementioned purposes has elapsed.

We reserve the right to delete data without giving reasons.

In the event of a permanent cessation of the operation of the application, the data will also be deleted without you having to advocate its deletion.

How we protect your data

We will always try to protect your data. Access to the data is protected by various security measures and passwords. Nevertheless, we cannot guarantee 100% protection.
