Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how BuiltByTerra collects, uses, and stores information when you use quoteit. We are committed to handling your data responsibly and transparently.

2. Data We Collect

We collect only the data necessary to operate quoteit:

• Guild (Server) ID — to remember which server a quote channel belongs to.
• Quote channel ID — the single channel your server has chosen for quote cards to be posted to.
• Error diagnostics — if something fails, a short technical record of the error — which may include the server and user id involved — is written to an internal log and automatically deleted after 30 days.

quoteit does not store quoted messages. The text of a quoted message is read only for as long as it takes to draw the card, then discarded — it is never written to our database. The posted card itself is a normal Discord message living in your own server, under your control, and can be deleted like any other. quoteit does not request the Message Content privileged intent; it reads the text of the specific message you explicitly chose to quote, and nothing else. Author display names and avatars are fetched from Discord at the moment a card is drawn and are not stored.

3. How We Use Data

Collected data is used solely to:

• Post quote cards: the stored channel id is the destination a rendered card is sent to.
• Report configuration: /quoteit status reads back the channel currently set.
• Diagnose faults: error records are used only to find and fix bugs, and are never used to build a profile of anyone.

We do not sell, share, or disclose your data to third parties for marketing or advertising purposes.

4. Data Storage and Security

Data is stored in a PostgreSQL database with encrypted connections (SSL/TLS). We take reasonable technical measures to protect stored data from unauthorized access. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Data Retention

Your quoteit data is a single row per server holding the quote channel you selected. It is retained while quoteit remains in your server. If quoteit is removed, that server's data is automatically and permanently deleted 7 days after removal; re-adding quoteit within those 7 days cancels the scheduled deletion. You may also request immediate deletion at any time (see Section 8).

6. Third-Party Services

quoteit operates within the Discord platform and is subject to Discord's Privacy Policy. We do not integrate with other third-party data processors beyond the database provider used to store operational data.

7. Children's Privacy

quoteit is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided data, please contact us so we can remove it.

8. Your Rights and Data Requests

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your data at any time. For server administrators, this includes all data associated with your guild ID.

To submit a data request, join our Discord community and open a support ticket with your Discord server ID or user ID.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of quoteit after changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
