Privacy Policy
Data Collection and Use
Hatenna is a Discord bot built for Pokétwo-related utility features, including predictions, collections, shiny hunts, feeds, leaderboards, daycare tools, AFK systems, and server settings. Hatenna is intended to respect user privacy as much as possible and only stores or processes data that is necessary for the bot to function.
- Discord user IDs, guild IDs, channel IDs, role IDs, and message IDs
- Server and channel configuration data
- Pokétwo-related data such as Pokemon names, forms, IDs, timestamps, catches, hatches, unboxes, breeding activity, balances, and related gameplay metadata
- Feature-specific state such as collections, shiny hunts, reserve data, AFK timers, daycare data, feed data, leaderboard data, and related settings
- Global sync data, including OAuth authorization state and synced server information where applicable
This Pokétwo-related data - including a user's feed entries, catch and hatch history, and breeding or daycare records - is associated with the Discord account it belongs to. It is generated only as a direct result of that user's own activity, such as catching, hatching, or breeding a Pokémon, or otherwise using a Hatenna feature, and is not collected independently of what the user has done.
Message Processing
Hatenna does not read or store ordinary user chat messages except where necessary to process commands, command replies, supported Pokétwo-related messages, or other feature-specific interactions used by the bot.
- Commands explicitly run by users
- Replied-to or referenced messages where a feature depends on that interaction
- Supported Pokétwo messages, embeds, attachments, and related metadata required for bot functionality
Hatenna does not monitor or archive general user conversation for unrelated purposes.
Purpose of Processing
Any stored or processed data is used only for the operation of Hatenna’s intended functionality. This includes prediction and ping features, collections, shiny hunts, daycare tools, feeds, leaderboards, settings, OAuth-backed global sync, service stability, abuse prevention, and technical diagnosis.
Hatenna does not sell user data. Stored data is not shared with third parties except where necessary for service operation, such as hosting, database, caching, logging, or related infrastructure services under controlled access.
User Control
Where supported, users may control how their information is displayed or used in public-facing systems. This may
include opting out of certain feed or leaderboard visibility, hiding identifying information where anonymity controls
are supported, and disabling, clearing, or unsyncing certain feature states. Supported tracking or display systems may
also be managed through available bot commands, including h!toggle where applicable.
Requesting Deletion of Your Data
Any user can permanently delete all of their Hatenna data at any time by running h!deletemydata
(alias h!optout) in any server where Hatenna is present, then confirming with
h!deletemydata confirm within 60 seconds. This immediately and permanently erases every record tied to
that user's Discord account across every server Hatenna operates in - including shiny hunts, collections, reserves,
AFK settings, global sync/OAuth state, feed and catch history, and all other feature-specific data - and blocks
further use of Hatenna by that account until the user chooses to run h!optin, which re-enables the bot
and resumes data collection going forward without restoring anything that was deleted.
Users who are unable to use Discord commands, or who have questions about a deletion request, may instead contact us through our support server at discord.gg/5XurcUaW83.
Data Retention
Data is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to support bot functionality, operational integrity, and feature continuity. Data may be removed, cleared, or become inactive when a server removes the bot, a feature is reset, cleared, disabled, or unsynced, a user opts out of a supported feature, stale data is cleaned up, or a user submits a deletion request as described above.
Server-level settings and configuration (such as naming, ping, starboard, category, and command-rule settings) belong to the server rather than an individual user and are retained so that a server's setup continues to work. A server administrator may request removal of that server's configuration at any time by opening a ticket in our support server at discord.gg/5XurcUaW83.
Hatenna keeps periodic database backups solely for disaster recovery and for restoring service during server or hosting migrations. Backups are not used to retrieve, restore, or otherwise access data that a user has deleted, and deleted data is not restored from backups except where an entire database must be recovered after a failure.
Third Parties
Hatenna operates on Discord and may process Pokétwo-related content only as required for supported bot functionality. If a user uses OAuth-backed global sync, authorization is handled through Discord’s OAuth system. Hatenna may rely on third-party infrastructure providers for hosting, storage, caching, logging, or similar technical services necessary to operate the bot. Hatenna is not responsible for the privacy practices of Discord, Pokétwo, or any other third-party platform.
Security
Reasonable efforts are made to minimize collected data and restrict access to operational systems. However, no service can guarantee absolute security.
Changes
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in Hatenna’s functionality, infrastructure, or privacy practices. Continued use of Hatenna after such changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
