Nomen Privacy Policy

Nomen is entirely free and open source. Usage of data can be verified through reading the source code.

For all commands mentioned here, replace >> with the server specific prefix, or @Nomen.

Collected Data

To provide the keyword notification service, Nomen processes all messages in servers/channels it is able to view, checking for words that members have requested to notify them. Nomen checks each users’ channel permissions to ensure that users only get notified of messages from channels they have access to.

Note: Great care has been taken to prevent messages from being leaked from private channels. If messages are ever leaked, please alert the developer @infinidoge1337 on Discord (or email infinidoge@inx.moe) as soon as possible.

Stored Data

Nomen stores:

  • A list of words/regexes each user has asked to notify them
  • A count of the number of times each keyword/regex has been notified for
  • User preferences (including whther opted-out)

Nomen does not itself store any message data. However, note that Nomen does forward copies of messages to people who requested to be notified of any words in that message. This means that while opted-in, anyone may have a stored copy of your messages that they could see. That said, users are prohibited from using excessively small/broad/common keywords to prevent scraping and storing messages en masse.

Deleting Data

To delete all of your data stored in Nomen, including whether you are opted-out, run >>nomen purge.

This will permanently delete all of your notification words and their respective counts.

Opting Out

To opt-out of your messages being processed by Nomen, run >>nomen opt-out.
To opt back in, run >>nomen opt-in.
Note that if you have opted-out, you will also not receive any notifications, but your list of notification words will be kept.
