To function as an automated management tool, Nocturne must store certain configuration data about your server. We are committed to transparency regarding what data we collect and how it is used.

<h2 id="collect">
  1\. Data We Collect
</h2>

Nocturne relies on an internal SQLite database to operate. We only store the data strictly necessary for the bot to perform its configured tasks.

**We actively collect and store:**

* **Server Data:** Guild IDs and Webhook URLs (used exclusively for sending audit logs to your configured channel).
* **Configuration Data:** Your custom tree layouts, active server flags (e.g., instant-fire, persistence), and custom DM notice messages.
* **Role Data:** Discord Role IDs associated with your base roles, linked roles, and manager whitelists.

**Blacklist Data:**

* **User IDs & Server IDs:** We collect and store specific User IDs and Server IDs **only** if that user or server has been added to our internal blacklist for abusing the bot.

<Warning>
  **We do NOT read your messages.** Nocturne does not read, log, or store the contents of standard user messages or conversations in your server. It only processes text actively submitted through its Slash Commands.
</Warning>

<h2 id="usage">
  2\. How We Use Your Data
</h2>

The data collected is used solely to:

* Enforce your configured staff hierarchies and automate role assignments.
* Send customised direct messages on behalf of your server management.
* Maintain the security and integrity of the bot by blocking blacklisted entities from executing commands.

<h2 id="sharing">
  3\. Data Sharing
</h2>

**We do not sell, rent, or share your data with any third parties.** The only external service your data interacts with is the official Discord API, which is necessary to execute commands, assign roles, and send messages.

<h2 id="data-deletion">
  4\. Data Retention & Deletion
</h2>

* **Standard Data:** Your server configurations, trees, and role mappings are stored indefinitely.
  * **Note:** Removing or kicking the bot from your server does **NOT** automatically delete your database entry. This is done to ensure your hierarchies and settings remain intact should you choose to re-invite Nocturne at a later date.
* **Data Deletion:** If you wish to permanently purge your server's configuration data from our database, you must explicitly request deletion by joining our [Support Server](https://discord.gg/ZWdVcXhpn4) and opening a ticket.

<Accordion title="Important: Blacklist Data Exemption" icon="shield-exclamation">
  To protect the bot from repeated abuse, **User IDs and Server IDs stored on the Blacklist are retained indefinitely.** Because this data is required to actively prevent malicious use of our service, **users cannot request the deletion of blacklisted IDs.** If you believe you have been blacklisted in error, you must join our support server and submit an appeal via a ticket.
