Discord Privacy Hub

Because privacy is an essential part of feeling safe.

Our Privacy Principles

We created Discord to be a platform that brings people together over shared experiences and gives everyone a place to belong. We understand that not everyone uses Discord in the same way, and people may want different spaces for different experiences. For example, you can talk to friends one-on-one, in small groups, or around your favorite things in large servers. People have different expectations of privacy in each space, and your information may be treated differently depending on the space you’re in. But no matter what, we build privacy into our products, and we will always try to let you know what's happening where and when. Here are our guiding principles:

You’re in control

Stronger privacy starts with putting you in control of your experience. Whether that’s limiting the information Discord collects about you, or deciding who can chat with you or what content you see, it’s up to you.

Less data, more transparency

We want you to always have a clear understanding of what’s happening with your personal information on Discord, whether that’s through our Privacy Policy, in the app, or right here on our site. We work hard to limit the information we collect in the first place. When your data is no longer needed, we anonymize it, aggregate it, or delete it. And we make third-party integrations play by the same rules.

With data comes great responsibility

Collecting, storing, and using any kind of data is a big deal and we don’t take it lightly. Your information is only private if it’s secure, and we invest heavily in securing our systems. We believe it’s important to build both privacy protective measures into our architecture and features everyone can use to stay both safe and private.

You’re not the product

We don’t sell your personal information. Our business is based on subscriptions and paid products, not from selling your personal information to third parties. Know that on Discord, what’s yours is yours.
