Yvonne Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 7, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Yvonne ("the Bot", "we", "our") collects, uses, and protects your data when you use the Bot on your Discord server.

Data We Collect

Data We Do NOT Collect

The Bot does not store any message content. All messages are processed exclusively in Node.js memory in real-time and are immediately eligible for garbage collection — their lifespan is measured in milliseconds. Behavioral fingerprints used for spam detection auto-expire after 10 minutes. We do not maintain message logs, chat histories, or conversation archives of any kind.

How We Use Data

Data Storage & Security

All persistent data is stored on a PostgreSQL server managed by the bot operator. Data transmission uses TLS encryption. Database queries use parameterized statements to prevent injection attacks. Internal API communications use HMAC-SHA256 signature verification.

Machine Learning & AI

The Bot does not use any machine learning or AI models to process message content or determine violations. All security detection uses deterministic rule engines and statistical methods (regex pattern matching, behavioral fingerprint hashing, coefficient-of-variation analysis). The Bot's optional AI chat feature does not store conversation content.

Data Retention & Deletion

Third-Party Services

The Bot does not share data with third-party advertising networks, data brokers, or analytics services. Threat intelligence data is shared only within the voluntary cross-server defense network. No data is transferred outside the bot operator's infrastructure except as described in this policy.

Children's Privacy

The Bot is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can delete it.

No Monetization

The Bot has no paid features, subscription plans, or paywalls. It does not display advertisements or send commercial content. User data is never used for profit.

Policy Updates

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. Material changes will be announced in the support server. Continued use of the Bot after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
