esmBot and Privacy
First things first: esmBot does not and is incapable of collecting IP addresses, emails, or any other sensitive personal/private info. This info is not accessible via Discord's API except for emails, which require the email OAuth2 scope to access. esmBot does not use OAuth2 to link to a user account, therefore it does not have access to this info.
Whenever a command is run using esmBot, a command count number is increased. This counter is completely anonymous and is used only for statistical purposes. Users can check this info at any time using the count and help commands.
esmBot uses the following user-related info:
- User IDs (needed for many reasons such as the tag commands and replying to users)
- Avatars (needed for some embeds and the avatar command)
- Usernames (for embeds and avatar command)
- Permissions (for checking if a user has perms to run some commands)
- Whether the user is a bot (needed to prevent other bots from running commands)
Out of these, only user IDs are stored in the database, and they are used only with the tag system for checking the owner of a tag.
esmBot uses the following guild-related info:
- Guild IDs (for guild-specific settings)
- Guild channel IDs (for getting where to send a message, storing disabled channels)
- List of members (for getting permissions and obtaining user objects by ID)
Out of these, only guild and channel IDs are stored in the database for configuration info and storing disabled channels/commands, prefixes, and tags.
If you want this data removed on the main instance, you can DM me on Discord (Essem#9261) or email me at data@esmbot.net.
Hopefully this document is clear enough to help understand what esmBot does and doesn't use. If you have any further questions, please contact me via the esmBot Support server.
