FatalFeeds – Policy & Documentation

Documentation for the FatalFeeds Discord bot, a lightweight presence and usage tracker.
This article describes how FatalFeeds works, what data it collects, and the terms you agree to by using the bot.

FatalFeeds is a Discord bot designed to track when members are online and which applications or games they are using, in order to generate simple statistics for a server. It does not log message content or any kind of private communication.

This page covers the Privacy Policy, the Terms of Service, and the official links to invite the bot and review its source code.

This Privacy Policy explains what data the FatalFeeds Discord bot (“the Bot”) collects, how that data is used, and what your options are regarding that data.

  • Game or application names shown in your presence (e.g. Playing VALORANT)

Server (guild) data

  • Guild ID and server name
