Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains what data WackyBot collects and how it is used.

Effective Date: April 9th, 2025

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy applies to the Discord bot known as "WackyBot" ("Bot", "we", "us", "our"). By adding WackyBot to your Discord server or using its commands, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

2. Information We Collect

WackyBot is designed to collect only the data necessary for its core functionality and improvement. We may store the following types of information:

  • Server Information: Server IDs, server settings specifically related to WackyBot (e.g., configured logging channels, blocked words, enabled/disabled features), server region.
  • User Information: User IDs are stored to manage permissions, track economy balances, record moderation actions (warnings, mutes), and facilitate user-specific features (like game scores). We do not store usernames, avatars, or discriminators directly, relying on Discord's API to display current user information when needed.
  • Channel Information: Channel IDs may be stored for specific configurations like logging or Reddit feeds.
  • Usage Data: We may collect anonymized data about command usage (e.g., which commands are most popular, frequency of use) to understand how the Bot is used and identify areas for improvement. This data is aggregated and does not identify individual users or servers.
  • Content Data (Limited): Message content is generally *not* stored. Exceptions include:
    • Content provided explicitly for a command (e.g., text for `/createembed`, subreddit name for `/reddit`). This is processed and usually not stored long-term.
    • Moderation logs may store message content related to a specific infraction if configured by server administrators.
    • Blocked words configured by server administrators using `/blockword`.

3. How We Use Information

The information collected is used solely for the following purposes:

  • To provide, operate, and maintain the Bot's features (moderation, games, economy, etc.).
  • To respond to user requests and provide support.
  • To enforce our Terms of Service and prevent abuse.
  • To improve the Bot's functionality, performance, and user experience through aggregated usage analysis.
  • To customize Bot settings according to server administrator configurations.

4. Data Storage and Security

Data is stored on secure servers. We take reasonable measures to protect the information collected from loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure.

5. Data Retention

We retain collected data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy or as required by law. Server-specific configuration data is typically retained until the Bot is removed from the server. User-specific data like economy balances or warnings may be retained as long as the user shares a server with the Bot. Anonymized usage data may be kept longer for statistical purposes. You can request data deletion via our support server.

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. Data is not shared except in the following limited circumstances:

  • With your consent or at your direction (e.g., displaying a leaderboard).
  • To comply with legal obligations or respond to valid legal processes.
  • To protect the rights, property, or safety of WackyBot, its users, or the public.

7. User Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal data, such as the right to access, correct, or delete your information. To inquire about or exercise these rights, please contact us through our official support server.

8. Children's Privacy

WackyBot is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 13 (or the relevant age of digital consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have collected data from a child without parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting the new policy on this page and potentially through Discord announcements. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
