Terms of Service

These Terms of Service are an agreement between you and Malik Shahzain, the independent developer operating flanker from Pakistan. They apply to the flanker Discord bot, the dashboard at flanker.wtf and related services.

By inviting flanker, using a command, signing in to the dashboard or otherwise using the service, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use flanker.

flanker is an independent service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Discord Inc.

You must have a valid Discord account and meet Discord's minimum age for your country. If you have not reached the age of legal majority where you live, your parent or legal guardian must agree to these terms on your behalf.

Your use of Discord remains subject to the Discord Terms of Service and Community Guidelines.

flanker provides Discord server security, moderation, logging, statistics, tickets, applications, notifications, music, voice-room management and other community tools. Features can change, be added, be limited or be removed as the project develops.

We give you a limited, personal, revocable and non-transferable right to use flanker in accordance with these terms. This does not transfer ownership of flanker, its code, branding or documentation to you.

You may add or configure flanker only in a server where you have authority to do so. If you act for a server owner or organization, you confirm that you are authorized to accept these terms and configure the service for that server.

flanker needs Discord permissions to perform the features administrators enable. Depending on a command or automated rule, it may delete messages, change roles and channels, create webhooks, lock channels, move members, timeout, kick or ban accounts, restore saved configuration and post logs or transcripts.

Server owners and administrators are responsible for flanker's role position, granted permissions, configuration, staff access and use of moderation records. They must only enable logging, backups or other data features when they have a lawful reason to do so.

You must not use flanker to:

• break any law, court order or regulation;
• violate Discord's rules or help another person evade Discord's safety systems;
• harass, threaten, defraud, impersonate or unlawfully monitor another person;
• collect credentials, access tokens or personal information through deception;
• send spam, malware, phishing links or abusive automated traffic;
• probe, disrupt, overload or bypass flanker's security or access controls;
• use a bug or compromised account to gain permissions you were not given;
• resell access to flanker or Discord API data without written permission;
• use Discord message content obtained through flanker to train an AI or machine-learning model.

Do not upload or instruct flanker to distribute content unless you have the right to use it.

You keep any ownership rights you have in content you submit. You give flanker a limited permission to read, store, transform and send that content only as needed to provide the feature you requested, secure the service and comply with law.

You are responsible for your commands, configuration, uploaded files, saved messages and other content. You confirm that processing that content through flanker does not violate another person's rights.

If you believe content handled by flanker infringes your rights, contact us with enough information to identify the content and explain the issue.

Our Privacy Policy explains what data flanker handles, why it is used, retention periods and how to request deletion. By using flanker, you acknowledge that policy.

flanker depends on Discord and may connect to services such as Spotify, Last.fm, YouTube, Twitch, Kick, Reddit, SoundCloud, Pinterest and other media or data providers. Those services have their own terms and privacy rules. We do not control them and are not responsible for their availability, content or decisions.

A change by Discord or another provider may cause a flanker feature to stop working or require us to change it without advance notice.

Antinuke, antiraid, backups, filters and moderation tools reduce risk, but they cannot guarantee that every attack, raid, abusive message or unauthorized action will be prevented or reversed. Audit logs can arrive late, Discord can reject requests, permissions can be misconfigured and deleted content may be impossible to restore.

Backups are a recovery aid, not a complete archive or a substitute for your own backups. Server owners should protect owner and staff accounts, use multi-factor authentication, review role hierarchy and test important configuration.

You are responsible for reviewing automated punishments and staff actions in your server. We do not decide disputes between server owners, staff and members.

flanker is provided without a guaranteed uptime or service level. Maintenance, bugs, provider failures, rate limits, security incidents or project changes can interrupt any feature. We may impose limits when needed to protect the service or comply with Discord's requirements.

We may change, pause or discontinue a feature or the service. When practical, important changes will be announced through the support server or dashboard.

You can stop using flanker at any time by removing it from your server, signing out of the dashboard and disconnecting linked accounts. Removing the bot does not automatically remove messages or transcripts already posted in Discord.

We may restrict or end access when reasonably necessary to address abuse, security risk, legal requirements, Discord enforcement, excessive load or a serious breach of these terms. Where appropriate, you can contact support to ask for a review.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, flanker is provided “as is” and “as available”. We do not make warranties that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, suitable for a particular purpose or able to recover every loss.

Nothing in these terms excludes a warranty or right that applicable law does not allow us to exclude.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Malik Shahzain will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive loss, or for lost data, content, revenue, reputation or access arising from flanker or a connected third-party service.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, total liability connected with flanker will not exceed the amount you paid directly for the service during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited.

We may update these terms when the service, Discord's rules or applicable law changes. The revision date appears at the top. Continued use after updated terms take effect means you accept them. If you do not accept an update, stop using flanker.

These terms are governed by the laws of Pakistan, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Disputes that cannot be resolved informally will be handled by the competent courts of Pakistan, unless applicable consumer law requires another forum or rule.

If one part of these terms cannot be enforced, the remaining parts continue to apply. A delay in enforcing a term does not waive it.

Questions about these terms can be sent to [email protected] or raised in the support server at discord.gg/yRyTAHmvxJ.
