Privacy Policy

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Mewbot ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you use the Mewbot Discord bot and our website at mewbot.fun. By using our services, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy.

What Data We Collect

We collect the following data when you interact with Mewbot:

Discord User ID — your unique Discord identifier, used to associate your in-game progress with your account.
Discord Server ID — the unique identifier of servers where Mewbot is active, used to manage server-specific settings.
In-game data — Pokemon collections, battle statistics, trade history, breeding records, currency balances, inventory, farm data, and other gameplay-related information.
Command usage — records of commands issued to help us improve the bot and investigate abuse.

We do not collect your Discord messages, email address, IP address through the bot, or any personal information beyond what Discord provides through its API.

How We Use Your Data

Your data is used for the following purposes:

Providing the service — maintaining your game state, Pokemon collection, and progress across sessions.
Maintaining game integrity — tracking trades, battles, and interactions to ensure fair play.
Preventing abuse — detecting and preventing cheating, exploitation, and violations of our terms.
Improving the service — analyzing usage patterns to fix bugs, balance gameplay, and develop new features.

Data Storage

Your data is stored securely in our databases. We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes. Your data is only used to operate and improve Mewbot.

Third-Party Services

Mewbot integrates with the following third-party services:

Discord API — we operate as a Discord bot and rely on Discord's platform to function. Your use of Discord is subject to Discord's Privacy Policy.
Top.gg — we use Top.gg for bot listing and voting features. When you vote for Mewbot on Top.gg, your interaction is subject to Top.gg's Privacy Policy.

Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active and you continue to use Mewbot. If you stop using the bot, your data may remain in our systems to allow you to return and resume your progress.

You may request deletion of your data at any time. Upon a verified deletion request, we will remove your data within a reasonable timeframe. Note that deletion is permanent and your game progress cannot be recovered.

Children's Privacy

Mewbot complies with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If we become aware that we have collected data from a child under 13 without parental consent, we will take steps to delete that information promptly.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us through our Discord support server so we can take appropriate action.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your data, including secure database configurations, access controls, and regular monitoring. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

Request access — ask us what data we hold about you.
Request deletion — ask us to delete your data permanently.
Request correction — ask us to correct any inaccurate data we hold about you.

To exercise any of these rights, please join our Discord support server and open a support ticket. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.
