Privacy Policy

Our commitment: Trap collects only the minimum data required to operate. We do not sell, share, or monetize your data. We do not collect message content or personal information.

1. What Data We Collect

Trap stores only the data necessary to provide its bot protection services. Here is a full breakdown:

Data Type	What We Store	Why
Guild ID	Discord server (guild) snowflake ID	Identify which server a configuration belongs to
Channel ID	ID of the designated trap channel	Monitor the correct channel for triggers
Role ID	ID of the log or bypass role (if configured)	Apply correct permissions and logging
User ID	Discord user snowflake ID of triggered accounts	Track bots for global blacklist and audit logs
Action Logs	Action type, timestamp, guild ID	Audit history and statistics
Username	Username at time of trigger (optional)	Blacklist reference and admin readability

We do not collect:

Message content of any kind
Email addresses, IP addresses, or personal identifiers
Voice or video data
DMs or private messages
Any data from channels other than the trap channel

2. How We Use Your Data

All collected data is used exclusively to provide Trap's bot protection service:

Guild configuration — store your trap channel, action type, and role settings
Global blacklist — share bot account IDs across servers to protect the community
Statistics — display aggregated counts of bots caught (no personal data exposed)
Audit logs — let server admins review past actions taken by Trap

3. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share your data with third parties. The only exception is the global blacklist, which is shared across all servers running Trap — this sharing consists exclusively of Discord user IDs flagged as bots, and is the core feature of the service.

We may also comply with valid legal requests (e.g., court orders) if required by law.

4. Data Retention

Data is retained as follows:

Guild configuration — retained as long as Trap is active in your server. Deleted upon bot removal or via /trap reset
Blacklist entries — retained indefinitely to maintain cross-server protection. Can be reviewed by contacting us
Event logs — retained for up to 90 days, then automatically purged

5. Data Deletion

You can remove your server's data at any time:

Run /trap reset in your server to delete all guild configuration and event logs
Remove Trap from your server — configuration data will be cleared within 30 days
To request removal of specific blacklist entries, join our Support Server and open a ticket

6. Security

We take reasonable technical measures to protect stored data, including encrypted database connections, access controls, and regular security reviews. However, no system is 100% secure and we cannot guarantee absolute protection against unauthorized access.

7. Third-Party Services

Trap uses the following infrastructure services:

Discord API — all interactions go through Discord's platform. Their Privacy Policy also applies.
Supabase (PostgreSQL) — our database provider. Data is stored in EU/US regions with encryption at rest.

8. Children's Privacy

Trap is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you believe a minor's data has been submitted, contact us and we will delete it promptly.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the bot evolves. We will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of Trap after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

10. Contact

For any privacy-related questions or data deletion requests, join our Support Server and open a ticket — we typically respond within 48 hours.
