Privacy Information

Hourai is a bot built for security in mind. To do this job, Hourai collects some information about users it sees on Discord. Below is a comprehensive list of data types and how long Hourai retains them after their deletion from Discord.

• Usernames - Hourai stores the last 20 usernames of every user it has visibility of. This includes the associated user ID, username, discriminator, and timestamp when it was first seen. This is queryable via the whois command and upon verification of users.
• Bans - Hourai caches information about bans in all servers it has access to. Including the server ID, user ID of the banned user, and the ban reason. To avoid providing this data to Hourai, remove the Ban Members permission from the bot. This is used to provide more accurate information to This cache is wiped and repopulated every 5 minutes.
• Reddit Posts - the titles of posts on these sites may appear in Hourai's logs, even if the post was deleted from the source site. No public way of seeing the output of these logs is available. These logs are persisted for a maximum of 30 days.
• All other data used by Hourai is pulled transitively from the Discord Gateway and is removed upon invalidation of that state (i.e. a user's nickname change will be wiped as soon as the gateway reports it.)

If you would like for any of the above data to be cleared from Hourai's database, please contact james7132#1567 (User ID: 151215593553395721) on Discord to have the data deleted. Be aware that this data collection cannot be disabled, even

upon request of deleting stored data.
