What is Ergod?

Ergod is an AI agent bot for Discord. It can read and write files, execute code, search the web, and perform other development tasks within isolated containers — all controlled through Discord messages.

Data We Collect

When you use Ergod, we collect and process the following information:

• Discord User ID — your unique Discord identifier, used to associate your workspace and preferences.
• Display Name — your Discord display name, used in conversation context.
• Message Content — messages you send to the bot, used to process your requests.
• Workspace Files — files created in or uploaded to your user workspace container.

Data Sent to Third Parties

To provide AI responses, your message content is sent to LLM (large language model) providers for processing. Depending on your configuration, these providers may include:

• OpenRouter — a multi-model API gateway
• Ollama — for locally-hosted models (data stays on your infrastructure)

Message content is sent to these providers solely for the purpose of generating AI responses. We do not send your Discord User ID, display name, or workspace files to LLM providers — only the conversation content needed to produce a response.

What We Do NOT Do

• We do not sell your data to anyone.
• We do not share your data with third parties beyond what is necessary to operate the service (i.e., sending messages to LLM providers for AI processing).
• We do not use your data for advertising or marketing purposes.

Workspace Data

Each user gets an isolated workspace container. Files in your workspace are private to you and any collaborators you explicitly authorize. Other users cannot access your workspace files. Code execution happens inside isolated Docker containers scoped to your workspace.

Data Retention

• Workspace files persist until you delete them or request a workspace reset.
• Conversation history is retained for session continuity so the bot can reference earlier context within your conversations.
• Memory and preferences persist across sessions to provide a consistent experience.

Your Rights

You can manage your data in the following ways:

• Use the /reset command to clear your workspace and conversation history.
• Contact us via Discord to request full data deletion or to ask questions about your data.
