Discord bots operate within Discord servers and can access messages, user profiles, server membership data, and voice channel activity depending on their permissions (intents). Discord's Developer Policy requires bots to have a privacy policy accessible to server administrators before bot installation. Users in servers where your bot operates have the right to know what data the bot collects and how long it retains it. The United States has a sectoral approach to data privacy — no single federal law covers all businesses, but multiple laws apply depending on your industry and the data you collect.

The United States has a sectoral approach to data privacy — no single federal law covers all businesses, but multiple laws apply depending on your industry and the data you collect. Key federal laws include COPPA (children's data), HIPAA (health data), GLBA (financial data), and CAN-SPAM (email marketing). FTC enforcement can result in significant penalties for deceptive data practices.

Under US, consumer protection laws may require you to disclose your refund terms clearly before purchase. Even where not strictly required, a transparent Refund Policy reduces chargebacks, builds customer trust, and protects you from disputes.
A Refund Policy for Discord Bot should specify: the refund window, eligible and non-eligible items, the process for requesting a refund, how refunds are processed, and any restocking fees. For digital products, be explicit about access-based non-refundability.
Under US, digital products can be non-refundable once they have been accessed or downloaded, provided users were clearly informed of this before purchase. You must obtain explicit consent acknowledging the non-refundability of digital goods.
