## Who we are

**Firsty** ("the Bot") is a Discord bot developed and operated by **colddev** ("we", "us", "our"). We are the data controller for the data the Bot processes, as described in this policy. This policy applies together with our [Terms of Service](/terms).

## What data we collect

The Bot only sees what Discord makes available to it on the servers where it has been added, and only collects what its features actually need. Depending on the features a server uses, this may include:

| Data                           | Examples                                                                                | Why we need it                                       |
| ------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| **Discord identifiers**        | User IDs, server (guild) IDs, channel IDs, role IDs, message IDs                        | To know where and for whom a feature should run      |
| **Public profile information** | Username, display name, avatar                                                          | To show the right information in the Bot's replies   |
| **Server configuration**       | Settings chosen by server administrators, such as enabled features, channels, and roles | To remember how the Bot should behave on each server |
| **Command usage**              | The command used, the options provided, and when it was run                             | To respond to the command and prevent abuse          |
| **Message content**            | The text of a message, only when a feature you enabled needs to read it                 | To perform that specific feature                     |
| **Technical logs**             | Error reports and diagnostic information                                                | To find and fix problems                             |

<Note>
  Message content is processed only when it is required for a feature and is not kept longer than that feature needs. We do not read or store private conversations beyond what is required to reply to a command you sent.
</Note>

### What we don't collect

We do **not** collect your email address, phone number, password, IP address, or any payment information. The Bot cannot access this information through Discord.

## How we use your data

We use the data described above only to:

* Provide, run, and personalize the Bot's features on your server.
* Save the configuration chosen by server administrators.
* Prevent spam, abuse, and violations of our [Terms of Service](/terms).
* Diagnose errors and improve the Bot's stability and performance.
* Comply with our legal obligations and with Discord's Developer Policy.

We do not use your data for advertising, and we do not build profiles of users.

## Legal basis

If you are in the European Economic Area, we process your data on the following legal bases under the GDPR:

* **Performance of a contract**, to provide the Bot's features you or your server administrators request.
* **Legitimate interests**, to keep the Bot secure, prevent abuse, and fix errors.
* **Legal obligation**, where we are required to process or keep data by law.

## Sharing your data

We **never sell** your data. We share it only in these limited cases:

* **Discord**, since the Bot runs on its platform. Discord's handling of your data is governed by the [Discord Privacy Policy](https://discord.com/privacy).
* **Infrastructure providers** that host and run the Bot on our behalf, only to the extent necessary and under appropriate confidentiality and data protection obligations.
* **Authorities**, when we are legally required to do so or when it is necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of our users or others.

## Storage and security

Data is stored on secured servers operated by our hosting providers. We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect it, including access restrictions and encrypted connections. No system is completely secure, but we work to protect your data and to respond quickly to any incident.

If data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, we make sure appropriate safeguards are in place, as required by the GDPR.

## Data retention

We keep data only as long as it is needed:

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Server data" icon="server">
    When the Bot is removed from a server, that server's configuration and related data are deleted within **30 days**.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="User data" icon="user">
    Data linked to your user ID is kept while it is needed for the features you use, and is deleted when it is no longer needed or when you ask us to delete it.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Logs" icon="file-lines">
    Technical and error logs are automatically deleted after a maximum of **30 days**.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Enforcement records" icon="gavel">
    If a user or server is blacklisted, we keep the minimum information needed (such as the ID and the reason) for as long as the restriction applies, to prevent the abuse from continuing.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Your rights

Depending on where you live, and in particular under the GDPR, you have the right to:

* **Access** the data we hold about you.
* **Correct** inaccurate data.
* **Delete** your data ("right to be forgotten").
* **Restrict** or **object** to certain processing.
* **Receive** your data in a portable format.
* **Lodge a complaint** with a data protection authority. In Romania, this is the [ANSPDCP](https://www.dataprotection.ro).
