Data Storage and Security

We implement security measures to protect the information we process:

Local Storage

Your extension settings are stored locally in your browser using Chrome's storage API. These settings remain on your device and are not transmitted to our servers unless you explicitly use features that require server communication.

Server Security

When the extension checks a user's status, it sends the User ID to our API server (roscoe.rotector.com). Our servers implement industry-standard security measures including encryption, access controls, and regular security audits.

Data Encryption

All data transmission between your browser and our servers is encrypted using TLS/SSL protocols. Sensitive data stored on our servers is encrypted at rest.

Access Controls

Access to our systems and data is strictly limited to authorized personnel who require access for legitimate business purposes. All access is logged and monitored.

We retain data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, or as required by applicable laws and regulations.

Your Rights and Choices

You have the following rights regarding your information:

Access and Control

You can control what information is collected by enabling or disabling features in the extension settings. You can also request access to any data we have about you.

Data Deletion

You can submit requests for deletion of any data related to you through our official Rotector Discord bot. We will process legitimate requests in accordance with applicable laws.

Data Portability

You can request a copy of your data in a machine-readable format through our official Rotector Discord bot, where technically feasible and legally required.

Correction

You can request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data we have about you through our official Rotector Discord bot appeal system.

Opt-Out

You can opt out of all data collection by uninstalling the extension and discontinuing use of our services.

Appeals

You can appeal any flags or decisions made by our system through our official Rotector Discord bot appeal system.

International Data Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own. We implement appropriate safeguards including standard contractual clauses and technical security measures to ensure your data remains protected. By using our services, you consent to these transfers.

Data Retention

We retain different types of data for different periods based on the purpose and legal requirements:

User Profile Data

Public profile information, connection data, and behavioral analysis results are retained indefinitely for safety tracking and pattern analysis purposes, even after account changes or deletions on source platforms.

Discord Message Analysis

Original Discord messages from inappropriate servers and analysis results are retained indefinitely for safety tracking purposes. AI analysis is performed on this data, but no training is conducted using user information, and AI provider data retention does not exceed 30 days depending on the provider.

Scanned User IDs

Roblox User IDs collected from pages you visit are retained as long as necessary for service functionality and safety tracking purposes.

Your Roblox User ID

Your Roblox User ID is only retained if abuse is detected. Otherwise, it is not stored.

Temporarily retained (typically 30 days) only for abuse prevention purposes and are not permanently stored.

Extension Settings

Stored locally on your device until you uninstall the extension or clear browser data.

Appeal Records

Records from our official Rotector Discord bot appeal system are retained for the duration necessary to process appeals and for legal compliance purposes.

Technical Logs

Error logs and API usage logs are retained for up to 90 days for troubleshooting and security monitoring purposes.

Note: While we process data deletion requests, the flag status of confirmed inappropriate accounts may be retained for historical tracking and safety purposes, as this serves a legitimate public safety interest.
