Discord bot Privacy Policy

What the bot reads, what it stores and what it never does with your data.

Last updated: 23 October 2026.

This policy explains what data WGT-01, the Discord bot of the support and news server for the WGT-01 plugin, reads and stores. The bot is run by Walife (Federico Marini) as a private individual. Contact: thawalife@gmail.com.

In short

  • The bot reads message text only to choose an automatic reply, and doesn’t save it.
  • It stores no personal data and no message content: only technical IDs it needs to work.
  • No selling or sharing of data, no advertising, no tracking, no cookies.

What the bot does

It creates and arranges the server’s channels (/setup); posts rules, FAQ, useful links, changelog and announcements (also through a webhook); in the support channel turns each question into a thread and replies automatically with pre-written answers chosen by keywords (no artificial intelligence is active); adds 👍 👎 and a thread to suggestions; opens a bug report form with /report; and answers the /help, /info, /docs, /style and /ask commands.

What it reads

The text of messages only in the support and suggestions channels, in direct messages to the bot and when the bot is mentioned. The text is used only to choose the reply and is not saved by the bot.

What it stores

Local files on the computer that runs the bot contain:

Data Why
IDs of the server, the channels and the messages the bot manages To be able to update the messages it posted
ID and token of the announcements webhook To post announcements
Plugin versions already announced Not to announce the same version twice
A copy of the public documentation of this website To answer /docs and similar commands

No content of users’ messages and no personal data are stored.

Temporary data

  • In memory only (deleted when the bot restarts): which automatic replies it has already given in a thread, so it doesn’t repeat itself.
  • Technical log in the program window: the user’s display name and the name of the chosen reply (not the text of the message). It isn’t kept.

Bug reports

A bug report (/report) contains what you write in the form (plugin version, Photoshop and operating system, description). It is posted as a thread in the Discord server and stays on Discord like any other message.

Other services

The bot reads public content from the GitHub repository of this website (documentation, current version). No user data is sent to GitHub or any other service. Discord itself processes your messages under its own Privacy Policy.

Optional AI feature (currently off)

The bot’s code can use an AI model (a local model through LM Studio, or Anthropic’s Claude API). This feature is off. If it is ever turned on, the text of questions would be sent to that service to generate the answer: this policy will be updated before it is turned on.

Retention

The IDs stay as long as the bot manages that server; when the bot is removed from a server, they can be deleted.

Your rights

You can ask for messages or threads created by the bot that concern you to be removed by writing to thawalife@gmail.com or to the server staff. The data stored by the bot contains no personal data. Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) you can also contact the Italian data protection authority, the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali, or the authority in your country. Discord’s Terms of Service and Privacy Policy also apply.
