We respect your privacy. Asriel is designed to run with a minimal data footprint. We do not engage in tracking, logging private message data, or collecting personal identifiers. Your usage remains anonymous to the extent enabled by Discord's platform.
1. Privacy Commitment
2. Data We Process
To provide music services, Asriel processes only the essential data payload sent through Discord APIs:
- Guild ID and Voice Channel ID: To identify which server and channel to join and play music.
- User ID and Username: To associate tracks in the queue and display who requested the active song.
- Search Queries / URLs: Processed strictly to resolve stream links from media hosts.
3. Data Retention & Storage
Asriel uses **zero database storage**:
- We **do not store** voice data, chat history, command logs, or user profiles.
- All processed parameters are held strictly in **volatile memory (RAM)** during the active playback session.
- All session data is completely purged and discarded when the bot stops playing or disconnects from the voice channel.
4. Third-Party Services
Asriel queries external platforms to resolve audio streams. When playing a track, queries are sent to:
- YouTube API / yt-dlp: To fetch stream links.
- Spotify API: To convert track metadata links to readable query strings.
- SoundCloud API: For SoundCloud link streaming.
We do not share any user profile information with these services. Your interaction with these third-party platforms is governed by their respective privacy policies.
5. Security Measures
The bot's token credentials, API keys, and connection channels are secured using environment variables. Access is restricted to bot operators. Since no personal data is collected or stored persistently on our servers, there is no risk of user data exposure or database breaches.
