We read the Discord privacy policy
Discord's privacy policy outlines how it collects information you provide, data from your device, and information from third-party sources. While Discord states it does not sell personal information, it engages in cross-service tracking by receiving data from external advertisers and sharing data with advertising platforms for its own promotional purposes. Users should be aware that deleted content and accounts may not be fully removed, as Discord can retain data based on its internal assessment or legal obligations, and the policy itself can be updated unilaterally.
