In order for GateON to function, we store certain information about servers and users who use the bot. Below is a list of what information we store, why we store it, and how it is used.
- User IDs: We store these to link email verifications to users and prevent duplicate verifications.
- Server IDs: We store these to keep server-specific configurations, such as verification settings and logging preferences.
- Email Addresses: Email addresses are stored so that server owners and moderators can verify users' identities and grant access accordingly. This information is visible to server administrators.
- Verification Codes: Temporary verification codes are generated and stored only until the user completes verification or the code expires.
- Channel IDs: We store these to send verification prompts, log verification attempts, and notify staff about verification actions.
