Privacy Policy Netherix Studios

Netherix Studios (“Netherix”, “we”, “us”, “our”) operates netherixstudios.com, related subdomains (including tickets and transcripts), our Discord communities, and the private Discord application Netherix Services (the “Bot”).

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use and store it, who we share it with, and the rights you have. It is written to comply with applicable privacy laws (including the GDPR where it applies) and with Discord’s Developer Terms of Service and Discord Developer Policy, including rules on API Data.

By using our website, Discord servers, Bot, commission services, or store, you acknowledge this Policy. If you do not agree, do not use our services.

1. Who we are and what this Policy covers

We are a Minecraft design studio. We provide:

  • custom commissions and a premade product store;
  • Discord servers for clients (Main) and freelancers (Freelancers);
  • the Netherix Services Bot, which is private / invite-only and is not offered for other communities to install.

This Policy covers:

  • our websites and subdomains;
  • accounts and store checkouts;
  • Discord servers we operate;
  • the Bot and its databases;
  • commission tickets, invoices, and ticket transcripts.

It does not cover Discord Inc. itself. Discord has its own Privacy Policy: https://discord.com/privacy

2. Discord API Data (important)

When you use our Discord servers or the Bot, we receive information through Discord’s APIs (“API Data”). Under Discord’s Developer Terms we:

  • collect only what we need to run commissions, tickets, roles, payments, and server safety;
  • do not sell API Data;
  • do not use API Data to train machine-learning or AI models (including large language models), unless Discord has given express written permission;
  • do not mine or scrape Discord;
  • do not use the Bot to spy on private messages unrelated to our services;
  • keep API Data secure and limit access to people who need it to operate Netherix;
  • honor Discord’s and your rights to access, correction, and deletion as described below.

Privileged intents. The Bot uses:

  • Server Members Intent — to see who joins/leaves and who has which service/department roles on both servers, so we can sync roles, count members, and move people when a service changes department.
  • Message Content Intent — only to (a) relay commission ticket replies between the client ticket and the freelancer channel, (b) generate transcripts of closed commission tickets, and (c) filter disallowed links in designated community channels.

The Bot does not use Presence Intent (online status, activities, or games).

3. Information we collect

3.1 You give us directly

  • Name, Discord username, email, password (website accounts).
  • Commission details: project description, budget, deadline, files, service requested.
  • Freelancer profile: bio, portfolio URLs, PayPal email / payout details you submit.
  • Support messages, applications, trial-task answers, reviews.
  • Payment details you enter with PayPal or Wise (we do not store full card numbers; those processors do).

3.2 Discord / Bot (API Data)

  • Discord user ID, username, display name, avatar (as provided by Discord).
  • Server membership and role IDs (service, department, staff, freelancer).
  • Channel and message IDs needed to run tickets.
  • Content of messages, embeds, components, and attachments inside commission ticket channels (and the paired freelancer channel), including when we relay a reply or build a transcript.
  • Message content in non-ticket community channels only to check whether a message contains a blocked HTTP link (anti-scam / anti-advertising). We do not keep a copy of ordinary chat.
  • Invite / join information used for onboarding where that feature is enabled.

3.3 Automatically (website)

  • IP address, browser type, device, pages visited, approximate location from IP, cookies or similar technology if enabled on the site.
  • Store/order identifiers and basic analytics needed to run the shop.

3.4 We do not collect

  • Discord Presence (online/idle/DND, “Playing …”).
  • Your Discord password.
  • Full payment card PAN/CVV.
  • Message history of general community channels (except the short-lived link check described above).
  • Data from Discord servers that are not ours (the Bot is not public).

4. Why we use this information (purposes)

PurposeExamples

Tickets, quotes, freelancer assignment, delivery
Run both Discords
Roles, /sync/syncservices/manage services, applications
Payments
Invoices via PayPal/Wise, freelancer balances, payouts

Legal bases (GDPR, where applicable):

  • Contract — you asked for a commission, applied as a freelancer, or created an account.
  • Legitimate interests — server safety, role sync, fraud prevention, internal ops, in a way that does not override your rights.
  • Consent — optional marketing or non-essential cookies, if we ever use them (you can withdraw).
  • Legal obligation — invoices and accounting.

5. Where we store data and for how long

DataWhereTypical retention
Tickets, applications, roles, freelancer profiles, invoices
Private MongoDB / our hosting
While the relationship lasts, then as needed for records (often up to 6 years for invoices where tax law requires)
Commission ticket transcripts (text, embeds, files)
transcripts.netherixstudios.com and related storage
For the life of the commission record and any dispute/warranty period; deleted or anonymized when no longer needed or upon a valid erasure request if law allows
Link-filter checks
Processed in memory; the violating message is deleted in Discord
Not stored as a chat archive
Website accounts
Our website database
Until you delete the account, plus legal retention
PayPal / Wise
Their systems; we keep invoice IDs, amounts, status, and payout emails you gave us
Per payment-provider and tax rules
Logs
Server logs
Short period (typically 30–90 days) unless needed for security

We do not keep Discord message content from general chat as a product database.

6. Sharing

We share information only as needed:

  • Discord — to operate the Bot and servers.
  • PayPal / Wise — to charge clients and pay freelancers.
  • Hosting / database / transcript storage — processors who host our systems, under confidentiality obligations.
  • Staff / managers / assigned freelancers — only what they need for that ticket (a freelancer sees the order you sent them; they do not get our full customer database).
  • Authorities — if required by law or to protect rights, safety, or fraud investigations.

We do not sell your personal data.
We do not share Discord API Data with data brokers, advertisers, or AI training companies.

7. Message content, transcripts, and opt-out

Commission tickets. If you open a ticket or accept work, conversation in that ticket (and the linked freelancer channel) may be relayed between our two Discords and, when the ticket is closed, stored as a transcript. That is part of delivering the paid service and keeping a business record. You opt in by creating or participating in the ticket.

Link filter. In designated community channels we may read a message only to see if it contains a disallowed link, then delete it. We do not build a profile from your casual chat.

Opt-out / stop processing

  • Leave our Discord servers.
  • Do not create tickets or freelancer applications.
  • Ask us to close tickets and delete transcript copies we control, where law allows (see Section 8). We may retain invoices and data required for tax, fraud, or legal claims.
  • Website: use account settings or email us to delete the account.

There is no “silent” tracking of all server messages for advertising.

8. Your rights

Depending on your location (including the EEA/UK), you may request:

  • Access — a copy of personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction — fix inaccurate data.
  • Deletion — erase data we no longer need (“right to be forgotten”), subject to legal holds.
  • Restriction / objection — in certain cases.
  • Portability — receive data you provided, in a reasonable format.
  • Withdraw consent — where processing is based on consent.

We will respond within a reasonable time and, where GDPR applies, within 45 days or the period the law requires.

How to request: email contact@netherixstudios.com from an address we can link to your Discord or store account, and include your Discord user ID if the request is about the Bot.

You may also complain to your local data-protection authority. Discord users may additionally use Discord’s own privacy tools and Discord Support.

9. Children

Our services are not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age in your country to use Discord). We do not knowingly collect data from children. Discord’s age rules apply. If you believe a child provided data, contact us and we will delete it.

10. International transfers

We are based in Colombia and may use processors in other countries (including the EU and United States). Where required, we use appropriate safeguards (for example contractual clauses) so your data stays protected.

11. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures: restricted staff access, encrypted transport (HTTPS), access-controlled databases, and private Bot tokens. No method is 100% secure. If we become aware of a breach affecting your personal data, we will notify you and regulators when the law requires it.

12. Cookies (website)

The website may use essential cookies (login, cart, security). If we use non-essential analytics or marketing cookies, we will ask for consent where required. You can control cookies in your browser.

13. Automated decisions / AI

We do not use your Discord messages, tickets, or API Data to train AI or machine-learning models. We do not make solely automated decisions that produce legal effects about you without human involvement.

14. Third-party links

Our site and Discords may link to Trustpilot, PayPal, Wise, portfolio sites, etc. Their privacy policies apply to those services.

15. Changes

We may update this Policy. The “Last updated” date will change. Material changes will be posted on this page. Continued use after the update means you accept the revised Policy.
