Privacy Policy for Arsenix Bot

ZeroStar is a Discord bot designed to improve server engagement and provide utility features such as giveaways, starboard, sticky messages, embed creation, and Pokétwo-related enhancements. This Privacy Policy explains how data is handled while using the bot.

📊 Data Collection and Usage

Arsenix only collects and stores limited data required for proper functionality. This may include:
Discord IDs (user, server, channel) to associate commands, settings, and features correctly
Server configuration data such as settings for starboard, sticky messages, embeds, and giveaways
Feature-related data such as vouch counts, leaderboard-style stats, and Pokétwo catch highlight information

The bot may process message content only when necessary, such as:-
Executing commands
Detecting Pokétwo catch messages for highlighting
Running features like starboard or embeds
ZeroStar does not store general chat logs or monitor messages outside of required functionality.

🚫 No Personal Data Collection
Arsenix does not collect or store personal information, including:
Real names
Email addresses
Passwords
IP addresses
Direct messages (unless explicitly required for a command interaction)

🔐 Data Usage and Protection
All collected data is used strictly for:
Providing bot features
Improving functionality and user experience
Data is never sold, shared, or distributed to third parties.
Any external services (such as hosting or databases) are used only for bot operation and are secured with restricted access.

👤 User Control and Visibility

Arsenix aims to keep user data minimal and controlled:
Users interact with features voluntarily through commands
Public features (like vouch or stats) only display relevant in-server data
No hidden tracking or background data collection is performed

🗑️ Data Retention
Data is stored only as long as necessary. Data may be removed when:
The bot is removed from a server
Server data is reset or reconfigured
A feature depending on stored data is disabled

🔗 Third-Party Services
Arsenix may interact with Discord APIs and may reference external tools or bots such as Pokétwo for feature functionality.
However, bot does not share user data with these services.
Users are encouraged to review the privacy policies of Discord and any third-party services separately.

🔄 Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated at any time to reflect improvements or changes in the bot.
Continued use of Arsenix after updates means users accept the revised policy.
