# Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how **Amy** ("the Bot," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you interact with the Bot or add it to your Discord server. By using Amy, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

***

### 1. Information We Collect

To ensure the Bot functions correctly and provides its intended features, we collect and store the following technical identifiers:

* **User IDs** — unique identifiers assigned to Discord accounts.
* **Server (Guild) IDs** — unique identifiers assigned to Discord servers.
* **Channel IDs** — unique identifiers for text and voice channels.
* **Role IDs** — unique identifiers for server roles.

> **Note:** We do **not** collect, request, or store any personal data (such as your real name, email address, IP address, phone number, or payment information).

***

### 2. How We Use Your Information

The information we collect is used **exclusively** for the correct operation and functionality of the Bot. This includes, but is not limited to:

* Saving server-specific settings and configurations.
* Enabling features such as role management, logging, and command execution.
* Ensuring the Bot responds correctly to commands within the appropriate server and channel.

We do **not** use this information for advertising, profiling, analytics, or any purpose unrelated to the Bot's core functionality.

***

### 3. Data Retention & Deletion

We are committed to minimizing data retention:

* **Active Storage:** Data is stored only for as long as the Bot remains on your server.
* **After Removal:** If the Bot is removed from a server, all associated data (server ID, channel IDs, role IDs, and user IDs related to that server) is retained for **7 days** from the date of removal.
* **Permanent Deletion:** After this 7-day period, all information about the server and its users that was collected during the Bot's presence is **permanently and automatically deleted** from our systems.

This grace period allows for accidental removals to be reversed without losing your server's configuration.

***

### 4. Data Security

Your information is stored under **reliable protection** using industry-standard security measures. We take reasonable precautions to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of the data we store. Access to stored data is strictly limited to authorized personnel who require it to maintain the Bot's operation.

***

### 5. Private Messages (DMs)

* **No Personal Data Collection:** We do not store or request your personal data through private messages.
* **User Responsibility:** Any information you choose to share with the Bot via private messages is done so **at your own risk**. We recommend exercising caution when sharing sensitive information in any Discord DM.
* **Confidentiality:** We do **not** disclose the content of private correspondence with the Bot to third parties, except where required by law or to prevent abuse of the Bot.

***

### 6. Third-Party Disclosure

We do **not** sell, trade, rent, or otherwise disclose your information to third parties for any reason. Your data is used solely for the operation of the Bot and is never shared with external parties for marketing, analytics, or unknown purposes.

The only exceptions are:

* When required by applicable law or legal process.
* To protect the rights, safety, or property of the Bot, its developers, or its users.

***

### 7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

* **Request information** about what data we store related to your user ID or server.
* **Request deletion** of your data at any time by contacting our support team.
* **Remove the Bot** from your server, which will trigger the 7-day deletion process described above.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us via our [Support Server](https://discord.gg/pears).

***

### 8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. Any updates will be announced on our support server. Continued use of the Bot after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.

***

### 9. Contact Us

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or your data, please reach out to us:

* **Support Server:** [discord.gg/pears](https://discord.gg/pears)
* **Open a Ticket:** Use the `#support` channel in our server.
