The Deadlock ObservatoryBot Terms of Service
Updated October 1, 2026
These terms cover The Deadlock Observatory Discord bot and its website dashboard, operated under the public name hesy, United States. By adding or using the bot, you agree to these terms and Discord’s applicable terms. This is an independent fan project, not an official Valve or Discord service.
Using the bot
The bot provides Deadlock activity summaries, pinned developer messages, optional transit information, Yoshi typing alerts, quoted Yoshi messages and attachments, pizza information, community-vote milestone announcements, and Magic 8-Ball replies. You must meet Discord’s minimum age requirements. Only people authorized to manage a server may configure its dashboard and alerts.
Use the bot lawfully and follow Discord’s rules. Do not use it for harassment, spam, unauthorized access, or attempts to disrupt the service. Server managers are responsible for the channels and roles they select for notifications.
Information and availability
Data may be delayed, incomplete, or unavailable. A typing alert does not confirm a message or game update. Magic 8-Ball replies are entertainment, not advice. Features may change, pause, or stop. We do not guarantee uninterrupted operation or the accuracy of third-party information.
Your content and permissions
You retain your rights to content you submit. Submit only material you are permitted to share. Discord, Valve, and other third-party names and assets remain the property of their respective owners. Installing the bot grants only the Discord permissions you authorize; you may revoke them or remove the bot at any time.
Stopping use
You can disable configured features, delete your dashboard data, delete server configuration with Manage Server permission, or remove the bot. Deleting server configuration also cancels scheduled message deletion. Automatic deletion requires the bot to have access and permission; it can fail during outages or after access is removed. We may restrict access to protect the service or address misuse. Existing messages posted in Discord may remain until someone with permission deletes them.
Privacy and contact
See our Privacy Policy for data handling and deletion requests. For support or questions, email [email protected].
Report harmful content, privacy concerns or security issues through our contact page. These terms are between you and the operator; Discord is not responsible for this agreement, and it does not override Discord’s terms.
Changes
We will update this page and its effective date when these terms change. Material changes will be announced on the website. These terms do not limit rights that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
