Who runs this
This verification service ("the vault") is run by the moderation team of The Forge Of Yari for The Forge Of Yari Discord server. It is self-hosted software operated by the community, not by Discord Inc. Contact: the moderators of The Forge Of Yari on Discord.
What we store
When you click Verify with Discord and approve the request on Discord's screen, Discord gives us:
- Your Discord user ID, username, display name and avatar identifier. Not your email address.
- An access token and a refresh token that let our application act on the one permission you approved, Join servers for you. They are encrypted (AES-256-GCM) before they are written to disk.
While you are a member of The Forge Of Yari, the bot also records:
- The names of the roles you hold, your server nickname, whether you are currently in the server, and when it last saw you.
- Snapshots of the server's role and channel layout (names, colours, permissions). These describe the server, not you.
The bot cannot read your messages or direct messages, does not track what you do in the server, and collects nothing about you from other servers.
Why we store it
- To bring you back into a replacement server, with the roles you had, if The Forge Of Yari is ever lost: raided and wiped, deleted through a compromised account, or removed by mistake.
- To give you the verified role, and to hand back any roles that were set aside while you were unverified.
- To show moderators how many members are protected. Only totals are shown.
We use this data for nothing else.
Who can see it
Only the people who operate the vault. Data is sent to Discord's API solely to perform the actions above. We do not sell, share, advertise with, or hand your data to anyone else, and we use no third-party analytics. Backup copies of the database are kept for up to 30 days on storage the operator controls.
How long we keep it
For as long as you stay authorised. You can withdraw the permission at any time in Discord under User Settings → Authorized Apps: the tokens stop working, and the vault marks your record as revoked and stops using it. To have the record erased entirely, ask a moderator (they can do it with one command) or contact the moderators of The Forge Of Yari on Discord. Erasure also removes any restore-log entries that mention your user ID. Backups age out within 30 days.
Your choices
- Do not verify. You keep access to whatever the server shows unverified members.
- Revoke the permission at any time under User Settings → Authorized Apps.
- Ask for your record to be erased, as described above.
Age
This service is for people who meet Discord's minimum age (13, or higher where local law requires).
Changes
If this policy changes, the date at the top is updated and a note is posted in the server.
