Privacy Policy
Effective date: September 30, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains what information the Draw Discord bot ("Draw", "we", "us") processes, why it is processed, how long it is kept, and the choices you have. It applies to every server Draw has been added to and to every user who interacts with it.
Summary
- Draw reads message content for two features only: AntiScam (phishing link warnings) and Snipe (moderator view of the last deleted message).
- Message content is processed in memory only. It is never written to disk, stored in a database, logged, sold, shared, or used to train AI or machine-learning models.
- The only data Draw keeps long-term is the list of users and servers that have changed their feature settings.
1. Information we process
| Data | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Message content in servers where AntiScam is enabled | Detecting known phishing links | Discarded as soon as the message has been checked |
| Content and author of a deleted message | Snipe feature (see Section 2.2) | In memory only, for at most 5 minutes |
| Discord user IDs of users who opted out of Snipe | Remembering your opt-out | Until you opt back in or ask us to delete it |
| Discord server IDs of servers that disabled AntiScam | Remembering the server setting | Until the setting is re-enabled or you ask us to delete it |
| Public profile data (username, avatar, roles, permissions, account and join dates) | Showing command results such as /extensions userinfo and /extensions avatar | Not stored. It is used only to build the reply |
| Operational logs (timestamps, user, server and channel IDs, server names, error details) | Keeping Draw running, fixing bugs, preventing abuse | Deleted automatically after about 14 days |
Our logs never contain message content.
2. How each feature uses message content
2.1 Draw AntiScam™
When a message is posted in a server where AntiScam is enabled, Draw extracts any links and checks them against the public, community-maintained phishing domain list at nikolaischunk/discord-phishing-links. The check runs locally on our server. The message is never sent to that list's maintainers or to any other third party.
If a match is found, Draw posts a warning in the channel that names the flagged link. Nothing about the message is kept after the check.
AntiScam is enabled by default. A server administrator can turn it off at any time with /toggle antiscam.
2.2 Draw Sniper™
When a message is deleted, Draw keeps the text and author of the most recent deleted message in that channel in memory. Only members with the Manage Messages permission can view it, using /extensions snipe. The data is erased after 5 minutes, or sooner if another message is deleted in the same channel. It is never written to disk, and it is lost when Draw restarts.
Snipe is enabled by default. Any user can opt out with /toggle snipe. Deleted messages from opted-out users are never captured.
3. What we do not do
- We do not sell, rent or trade any data.
- We do not share message content or personal data with third parties.
- We do not use any data to train artificial-intelligence or machine-learning models.
- We do not use any data for advertising, profiling or analytics.
- We do not access messages in servers where Draw has not been added, or in channels Draw cannot see.
4. Third-party services
Some commands, such as media commands, fetch content from external websites and APIs. Those requests contain only the search parameters Draw needs, for example an image category. They never include your Discord ID, username or messages. Links opened from Draw's replies, including advertising links, lead to third-party websites that have their own privacy policies.
Draw runs on Discord. Your use of Discord is governed by Discord's Privacy Policy.
5. Security
Data is held on infrastructure operated by the Draw developer, and only the developer can access it. The bot credentials and server are protected by reasonable technical measures. No online service can guarantee absolute security, but we keep the amount of data we hold to a minimum so that there is very little at risk.
6. Your choices and rights
- Opt out of Snipe:
/toggle snipe - Disable AntiScam for a server (administrators only):
/toggle antiscam - Stop all processing in a server: remove Draw from the server.
- Access or deletion: contact us (see Section 9) to ask for a copy, or the deletion, of any stored IDs linked to you or your server. We will respond within 30 days.
7. Children
Draw may only be used by people who meet Discord's minimum age requirement in their country. Media commands marked as NSFW are restricted to users aged 18 or older and only work in age-restricted channels. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when Draw's features change. The effective date at the top of the page will always show the latest revision. If a change significantly affects how message content is processed, we will announce it before the change takes effect.
9. Contact
For privacy questions or data requests, contact the Draw developer on Discord. You can find the developer's account with the /information info command.
