Privacy Policy

Last updated 19 August 2026

This explains what Datcord collects, what it deliberately does not, and what is public by design.

What we collect

Discord identity. Your Discord user ID, username, display name, avatar URL and server list, from the identify and guilds scopes you approve at sign-in.
Your public key and address. Published so other people can encrypt messages to you. Public keys only.
Subscription state. Your tier, renewal date, deposit address, amounts received, and a count of transactions for the daily safety cap.
Encrypted attachments. If you send media, the ciphertext is stored so the recipient can fetch it. We cannot decrypt it.

What we never collect

Message content. Encryption happens on your device. Plaintext never reaches us.
Your private key or channel passphrases. These stay on your device.
Your Discord messages. Datcord does not request the scopes that would allow reading them, and does not read them.
Your Discord password. Sign-in happens on Discord's own site. We never see it.

We hold data we cannot read. Attachments are stored as ciphertext, and on-chain messages are encrypted before they are published. Holding them gives us no ability to read them.

What is public by design

Messages sent on-chain are published to a public blockchain. Their content is encrypted, but these are visible to anyone, permanently, and cannot be deleted:

that a message was sent, and when
its approximate size
the addresses involved
the fees paid

Your Datcord address is linked to your Discord identity in the public directory, so that people can message you. If you do not want that link to exist, do not publish a directory entry.

How long we keep it

Directory entries and subscription records are kept while your account exists. Encrypted attachments are kept while the messages referencing them are useful. Blockchain data is permanent and outside anyone's control, including ours.

Sharing

We do not sell your data and do not share it with advertisers. Your public directory entry is visible to other Datcord users by design. Discord receives whatever it normally receives when you sign in through it, under Discord's own privacy policy.

Your choices

Remove your directory entry to stop being discoverable.
Stop using Datcord at any time; your key remains yours.
Request deletion of your directory entry and subscription record by opening an issue. Blockchain data cannot be deleted by anyone.
