Terms of Service

Last updated: November 8, 2026

1. Agreement

By adding Border ("the Bot") to a server or using its features, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, remove the Bot and stop using it. You must also follow Discord's Terms of Service and Community Guidelines.

2. What the Bot does

The Bot watches activity in your server (joins, message bursts, mass mentions and invite creation), combines the signals it sees into a confidence level, and sends an alert with the evidence to the channel you choose. Alerts are informational signals, not verdicts. The Bot does not read message text and does not share data between servers. See the Privacy Policy.

3. Moderators decide

• The Bot bans, kicks or mutes someone only when a moderator with the matching permission presses the button. That moderator is responsible for the decision.
• A high confidence level is not proof that a user did something wrong. The Bot can be wrong, so check the evidence.
• Do not use the Bot to harass, discriminate against or target people.

4. Automatic measures

Two measures are off by default and run only if a server administrator turns them on, and only on High confidence alerts: deleting a flagged account's recent messages (up to 25), and raid mode. Raid mode raises the server's verification level and, where Discord allows it, pauses invites, then switches itself off after 30 minutes or when a moderator turns it off. By enabling them you accept that they may affect legitimate members, for example by deleting messages or making it harder for new people to join.

5. Permissions and misuse

• The Bot needs the permissions required for the features you use, such as Manage Server for raid mode or Manage Messages for cleanup.
• Do not attempt to access the Bot's systems without permission, overload them, bypass limits, or reverse engineer them.
• Do not deliberately trigger false alerts to disrupt a server's moderation.

6. Accuracy and availability

The Bot is provided "as is" and "as available". We do not guarantee that every raid or spam attempt is detected, that alerts have no false positives, that alerts are always delivered, or that the Bot is online without interruption. We may change, limit or stop features at any time.

7. Suspension and removal

We may restrict or remove access to the Bot for any server or user who breaks these Terms or Discord's rules. You can stop using the Bot at any time by removing it from your server, which deletes the data we stored about it.

8. Limitation of liability

To the extent allowed by law, we are not liable for any indirect or consequential damages, or for any loss caused by moderation decisions or automatic measures taken using the Bot. Nothing in these Terms limits rights you have under mandatory law.

9. Changes

We may update these Terms. The date above shows the latest version. Continuing to use the Bot after a change means you accept it.
