Pixel Fishing is a game bot on Discord. It keeps the smallest amount of information it can and still remember your progress. This page says exactly what that is.
What we store
Who you are
- Your Discord user ID — the number Discord gives every account. This is how your progress is found.
- Your Discord username, so leaderboards can show a name rather than a number.
- The IDs of servers where you have used the bot, so the per-server leaderboards know who to include.
What you have done in the game
- Every fish you land: the species, its weight, what it was worth, which zone it came from, whether the hookset was perfect, and when.
- Your record book: your best of each species and when you caught it.
- Your money in each currency, your research credit in each sea, and the permits, gear and tackle you own.
- Counts of casts, fish landed, species tagged and trophies.
- Where you are fishing and what you have tied on.
- If you vote for the bot on Top.gg, the time of the vote and how many times you have voted, so the reward is paid once.
What we do not store
- Message content. The bot receives no message text. It works through slash commands and buttons; it cannot read what you or anyone else types.
- Your email address, real name, phone number or payment details.
- Direct messages, voice, or anything else about your Discord account beyond the ID and username above.
- Anything at all about servers you have not used the bot in.
Why we store it
To run the game. A fishing game with no memory of what you have caught is not a game. Your ID identifies your progress, your username appears on leaderboards, and the server IDs scope those leaderboards to the people you play with.
There is no advertising, no profiling, and none of it is sold or shared with anyone.
Who else sees it
- Other players see your username, and your scores where you appear on a leaderboard, and any catch you choose to post publicly with
/show.
- Our hosting provider, Railway, runs the servers and the database. They can technically access what is stored there, as any host can.
- Top.gg, if you vote, tells us your Discord user ID so the reward can be paid to you.
Nobody else. We do not sell data and we do not share it for advertising.
How long we keep it
For as long as you play, and afterwards until you ask for it to be deleted. We are a small project and do not currently expire idle accounts; if that changes, this page will say so before it happens.
Deleting your data
Ask, and it is deleted — all of it, including your record book, permanently. Contact us in the support server or by email at the address below with your Discord user ID. We will confirm when it is done.
Removing the bot from a server does not delete anything, because your progress belongs to you rather than to that server.
Children
Discord requires everyone using it to be at least 13, and older in some countries. Pixel Fishing is not intended for anyone below that age. If we learn that an account belongs to someone too young to use Discord, we delete its data.
Changes
If this policy changes we will update this page and the date at the top. If a change is significant, we will announce it in the support server.
