The breadth of data collection — spanning content, transactional, behavioral, and device data — means Discord builds a detailed profile of users that can be used for multiple purposes including advertising and product improvement.
The policy states Discord collects a wide range of personal data including messages, media, voice and video content, device identifiers, IP addresses, payment details, and behavioral activity, and authorizes use of this data for targeted advertising, analytics, and product improvement. The terms permit sharing of personal data with third-party advertising, analytics, safety, and infrastructure partners, and disclose that data may be transferred or disclosed in the event of a corporate merger, acquisition, or asset sale. You can review and adjust privacy settings in your Discord account, and submit data access or deletion requests by emailing privacy@discord.com or using the in-app request tools.
