LayerV, Inc. (“LayerV,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or use our services, including the LayerV Discord Bot, the LayerV Slack Bot, any other LayerV bot or integration offered through a third-party communication platform (the “Bot”), and the LayerV API and developer offerings.
LayerV, Inc. is a Delaware corporation. For privacy inquiries, contact us at privacy@layerv.ai.
We do not use tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party analytics services on this website. We collect only server-side logs necessary for security and operational purposes.
We collect anonymous, cookieless page analytics to understand how visitors use our website. This includes pages visited, referrer domain, UTM campaign parameters, device type, browser family, scroll depth, and time on page. This data is collected by our own first-party service with no cookies, no personally identifiable information, no fingerprinting, and no third-party analytics services. We honor the Do Not Track (DNT) browser signal and skip collection for users who enable it.
When you use the Bot, we collect the following categories of information:
Note on Third-Party Platform Storage. When you upload content to a Discord server, Slack workspace, or any other third-party communication platform on which the Bot operates, that platform also stores a copy of the content on its own infrastructure (for example, on Discord's content delivery network). LayerV does not control that storage, the URLs generated by the platform, or the access controls the platform applies. Platforms commonly process uploaded content in ways that are independent of LayerV, including but not limited to: serving content from their own content delivery networks under URLs the platform controls; caching attachments on the recipient's mobile device in operating-system attachment caches; transmitting attachment thumbnails through push-notification services (such as Apple Push Notification service or Firebase Cloud Messaging); generating link-unfurl preview images cached on third-party servers; and retaining content for periods determined by the platform's own retention policies, which may differ materially from LayerV's.
The encryption and architectural representations described above apply only to content stored on LayerV infrastructure, not to content stored or processed by the underlying communication platform. See Section 27.7A of our Terms of Service for additional detail, including the specific exposure scenarios described in that section.
We do not request or collect platform email addresses, payment information, or any other sensitive personal data through the Bot beyond what is described above.
When you use the LayerV API or developer offerings, we collect:
We use the information we collect to:
For information collected through the Bot and the API, we additionally use it to:
We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with service providers necessary to operate our business:
We may also disclose information:
LayerV retains personal information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, including providing our services, complying with legal obligations, resolving disputes, enforcing our agreements, and supporting business continuity. Specific retention periods are operational and may change over time based on legitimate business need, security, regulatory requirements, and applicable law.
Content submitted through the Bot is subject to the operational retention practices described in Section 27.7 of our Terms of Service. LayerV does not commit to any specific retention period for Bot content, which is purged on an operational cadence determined by LayerV.
CSAM reports and related records are retained as required by 18 U.S.C. § 2258A and applicable law. DMCA notices and counter notices may be retained for the period required to support enforcement of LayerV's repeat infringer policy.
You may request deletion of your data at any time by emailing privacy@layerv.ai. We will honor deletion requests except where retention is required by law, necessary to resolve disputes, or necessary to protect LayerV's rights or the rights of third parties.
We implement technical and organizational security measures including:
Content submitted through the Bot is encrypted such that LayerV does not hold or have routine operational access to the cryptographic credentials required to decrypt or view the unencrypted content. See Section 27.7 of the Terms of Service for additional detail.
No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. If you believe your data has been compromised, contact us at security@layerv.ai.
You have the right to:
If you are a California resident, you additionally have the right to:
If you are a resident of any U.S. state with applicable consumer privacy legislation (such as Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Montana, Tennessee, Iowa, Indiana, New Jersey, Delaware, New Hampshire, Maryland, Minnesota, Nebraska, or Rhode Island), you may have rights similar to those described above. To exercise rights under any such law, contact us at privacy@layerv.ai.
LayerV, Inc. is a U.S. based company. LayerV currently focuses on customers in the United States and does not actively market its services to individuals or organizations in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom. If you are located in the EEA or UK and use our services, your data will be transferred to and processed in the United States.
EU and UK organizations that wish to use LayerV services and require a Data Processing Agreement, Standard Contractual Clauses for cross-border transfers, or other GDPR-aligned arrangements should contact us at info@layerv.ai before integrating. We will respond to data subject requests as required by applicable law.
We respond to privacy requests within the time frame required by applicable law. To submit a request, email privacy@layerv.ai.
Enterprise Services. Our enterprise services are intended for business use and are not directed at individuals under the age of eighteen.
The Bot. The Bot is available to users who meet the minimum age requirements of the underlying communication platform (for example, Discord's general minimum age, or Slack's eligibility rules and any age requirements imposed by the workspace administrator). The age requirements applicable to your use are set by that platform, not by LayerV.
Hard Floor. Regardless of the underlying platform's age policy, we do not knowingly collect personal information from any individual under the age of thirteen in the United States, or under the applicable age of digital consent in any other jurisdiction. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under the applicable age, we will delete that information as soon as reasonably possible.
If you are a parent or legal guardian and you believe we have collected personal information from your child, please contact us immediately at privacy@layerv.ai and we will delete it.
CSAM Reporting. If LayerV becomes aware of any content that may constitute child sexual abuse material, LayerV will report that content to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) in compliance with 18 U.S.C. § 2258A and will preserve and disclose related records to law enforcement as required by law. Because LayerV's architecture does not provide LayerV with routine operational access to the unencrypted content of communications transmitted through the Bot, traditional content scanning is not available to LayerV; see Section 27.13 of the Terms of Service for additional detail.
Your information is processed and stored in the United States. By using our services, you consent to the transfer of your data to the U.S. We use AWS infrastructure to protect data in transit and at rest.
We may update this privacy policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Material changes will be communicated by:
We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
