What Data We Collect¶

We collect data with different scenarios, each scenario covered by this Policy will be explained below.

Collected by Command¶

The following data may be collected and temporarily stored when intentionally provided by a User via usage of a function of the Bot, hence this data is not collected automatically. Should a User provide data in this manner, they forego any rights pertaining to the content of the data provided.

Server specific configuration settings.
Data and content for the task called.
- When using /config alternate-link, Microsoft authentication data is collected in order to link the Bot to a Realm. This data is only stored in memory, and disappears once the task is completed. A Microsoft application is also linked to your account with this command: after the task is completed, you may revoke access to the application at https://account.live.com/consent/Manage.

Automatically Collected¶

This data may be collected automatically by some Services. This data is used to facilitate critical functionality of Services, and are vital to its operation.

Any data needed for standard operation of the Bot. This typically includes channel data and roles.
Data relating to users via the Xbox Service, including any Minecraft-related data (e.g. information on when a Player was on a Realm).
For Playerlist Premium, information about the Discord account who purchased it, the subscription ID, and the expiration date of the subscription is stored in the bot itself. This data is not shared with any third party, and is only used to verify the subscription. Stripe handles the payment process itself, including storing payment information - and their privacy policy can be found at https://stripe.com/privacy.

Why We Collect Data¶

We collect data to facilitate functions of Services, and to provide us with analytical data about the Bot's usage and behavioral patterns. For example, data from the Xbox Services is used in order to track several Players' activity on a Realm to later present them in a human-readable way.

We do not share data with any 3^rd party for any reason whatsoever, unless required by law.

How Your Data is Stored¶

All data is stored on protected infrastructure. While storage methods may vary between Services, most data will be stored within enterprise-standard databases such as PostgreSQL (persistent) or Redis (cache). Please keep in mind that even with the highest standard of protection, no data can ever be 100% secure. While we strive to keep data secure and private at all times, absolute security cannot be guaranteed.

How Long Your Data is Retained¶

Data collected via command, meaning collected via explicit understanding that the data is going to be saved (cache), is retained for as long as the instance of the Bot runs or until it is cleared to make room. Other data retained is as follows:

Server Configuration¶

The Bot stores information relating to a Server's configuration. This information is automatically deleted if it leaves a Server, but is otherwise indefinitely kept.

Gamertags¶

The Bot uses Redis/a cache in order to store a link between "XUID", the way Xbox Services denotes its Users, and a "Gamertag", a human-friendly way of referring to said User. Entries are automatically deleted after 7 days.

Realm Player Session Activity¶

The Bot uses Xbox Services in order to track Players on Realms, and stores it per each session - a period of time where a Player was on a Realm. This data is deleted after 31 days after the Player left the Realm for that session, or when the last Server tracking the Realm removes the bot.

Your Rights to Your Data¶

Pursuant to various jurisdictions, you have the right to request a machine-readable copy of your data for portability's sake and the right to have your data deleted from the Service.

Should you wish to enforce one of these rights, please send an email to [email protected] - we will strive to respond to your request within 30 days.

Children's Privacy¶

Our Services do not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from anyone under the age of 13 without verification of parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information from our servers.

Agreement¶
