# Bot Guidelines

These guidelines cover what's specific to bot listings. They apply on top of the general [Community Guidelines](/community-guidelines). Read this before you [submit your bot](/bots).

## Behaviour rules

* **Accurate description and tags.** The short description must say what the bot really does, and tags must reflect actual functionality.
* **No unsolicited messages.** No unprompted DMs, mass pings, or posts when the bot joins a server.

## Privacy and data disclosures

Fluxer bots receive all message content by default, with no intent gating. Transparency about data handling is a **hard requirement**.

#### You must disclose

On your submission, state:

* Whether your bot collects any user data, such as IDs, usernames, or message content.
* Whether it stores message content, and for how long.
* Every external API or service it connects to.
* Whether it uses voice features.

#### If you collect data

Also provide:

* A clear description of what is collected and how long it's retained.
* A publicly accessible Privacy Policy URL.

## Automatic rejection

Any of these ends the review, regardless of anything else. These are in addition to the general [conduct rules](/community-guidelines#conduct-rules) that apply to every listing type.

* Scraping or exporting community member lists.
* Collecting or storing user data, or reading and storing message content, without disclosure.
* Attempting to escalate its own permissions.
* Sending unsolicited DMs to community members.
* Requests to unidentified or suspicious external endpoints.
* Being a reskin of a banned or previously rejected bot.
* Advertising external products or services unprompted.
* Recording or transmitting voice audio without explicit disclosure.
* The developer providing false information on the submission form.
