Privacy Best Practices for Discord Data

๐Ÿ”’ Privacy๐Ÿ“˜ Guide
How DiscoLink handles user privacy and what you should consider when syncing Discord content.

Consent System

DiscoLink includes a built-in consent system:

  • Users opt-in with /consent opt-in
    - Only consented users' messages are synced
    - Users can opt-out anytime

    ## Data Handling

    - No message content is sent to third parties
    - Self-hosted means you control the data
    - Respect user privacy preferences

    ## Recommendations

    1. Always enable consent mode for public-facing sites
    2. Consider anonymizing usernames in certain contexts
    3. Provide a way for users to request data deletion
