How your information is used

• Things like the information you provide through commands, user IDs, guild IDs, usernames, discriminators, and roles are essential for any of YottaBot general functionalities.
• Audit log entries' reasons are stored for the same purposes of the reasons you provide in moderation commands, like ban and mute. YottaBot logs these moderation actions to display them more concisely to you later and send log messages if you enable it.
• YottaBot needs to know the last time you used its commands to have a functioning command cooldown system and prevent malicious actors from disrupting YottaBot's internal processing by spamming commands.
• YottaBot needs to know the last time you sent a message that earned you xp to have a functioning xp cooldown system and prevent malicious actors from earning more xp by spamming your server instead of talking organically.
• YottaBot needs to know the times you issued a ban to count how many bans you issued in the last 10 seconds for its mass ban protection feature to function properly.
• YottaBot may use your cached avatar to display in message embed icons such as in moderation log messages.
• YottaBot may use the time of your boost in YottaBot's support server to know when to award you with its premium features.
• YottaBot may use your voice connection data to correctly award you xp for time spent in voice channels in servers which enabled this feature.
• The cached attachments of your messages may be sent in deleted messages logs if in a server which enabled these logs, this moderation feature is essential for moderators to prevent bad actors from hiding proof of their malicious acts by deleting messages.
• The cached content and time of creation of your messages may be sent in deleted or edited messages logs if in a server which enabled these logs, this moderation feature is essential for moderators to prevent bad actors from hiding proof of their malicious acts by deleting or editing messages.
