Automatically Collected

  • Discord User ID — Used to track game scores, leaderboard rankings, and per-user settings.
  • Server (Guild) ID — Used to store server-specific configuration and server-scoped leaderboards.
  • Command Usage Data — We log which commands are used (not message content) for analytics and bug tracking.

Not Collected

  • We do not read, store, or log message content.
  • We do not collect email addresses, IP addresses, or any personally identifiable information beyond your public Discord user ID and username.
  • We do not collect data from DMs.

3. How We Use Your Information

  • Saving server configuration preferences (channel restrictions, cooldowns).
  • Improving the bot through aggregated, anonymised usage analytics.
  • Diagnosing and resolving bugs or service issues.

4. Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored securely on protected servers. We use encryption in transit and at rest. Access to the database is restricted to authorised developers only. We retain data only as long as necessary to provide the service.

We do not sell, trade, or share your data with third parties. Data may only be disclosed if required by law or to protect against fraud or abuse.
