Terms of Service
Last updated:
These terms apply to everyone who adds Torn Sentinel (“the bot”) to a Discord server or uses it. By adding the bot, or by accepting these terms in the setup wizard, you agree to them. If you do not agree, remove the bot.
1. What this is
Section titled “1. What this is”Torn Sentinel is a hobby project that helps Torn factions run their Discord server. It is made by a single player, --Phoenix-- [3656832] (“the developer”), for the community. It is not made by, affiliated with or endorsed by Torn or Discord.
It is free to use except for premium features, which run on credits. How credits work.
2. Who may use it
Section titled “2. Who may use it”- Setting up the bot needs the Manage Server permission in the Discord server, and a Torn API key with faction access from the faction the server belongs to. Torn gives that access only to some faction positions.
- One faction per server. A server is linked to one faction, and a faction to one server.
- Respect the rules of the platforms. You must follow Discord’s terms and Torn’s rules. A feature the bot offers does not make something allowed that the platform forbids.
3. Your Torn API key
Section titled “3. Your Torn API key”- You give the bot a key on purpose, and only a key you own. Do not paste someone else’s.
- The bot uses it only for what the setup wizard says it is for. What it reads and how it is kept and the Privacy page describe it exactly.
- You can take access back at any time by deleting or regenerating the key on Torn. Doing so will stop the features that need it.
4. Acceptable use
Section titled “4. Acceptable use”You will not:
- use the bot to harass, spam or harm anyone, or to break Discord’s or Torn’s rules;
- try to break the bot, get around its limits, or overload it or the services it talks to;
- try to get credits or refunds in a way the payment policy does not allow;
- use the bot to collect other people’s Torn keys or private data.
The developer may remove the bot from a server, or refuse it service, if these rules are broken.
5. Credits and payments
Section titled “5. Credits and payments”Premium features run on prepaid credits that you pay for on Torn. The rules for paying, for credits running out and for refunds are in the Payment Policy, which is part of these terms.
6. A free project, and what that means
Section titled “6. A free project, and what that means”The bot is a free hobby project run by one person, and it is still in early access. It will be down sometimes, it will have bugs, and features will change or be removed.
The developer fixes faults as fast as he can and puts things right where it is in his power, for example by returning credits that a fault used up. What cannot be promised is that the bot is always up, on time and free of mistakes. So treat its alerts as a help and not a guarantee: if a chain matters to you, keep an eye on it too. The developer cannot be held responsible for in-game losses that follow from an alert, role or draw that failed.
The developer also does not guarantee that Torn’s or Discord’s services work, or that they keep working in the same way.
7. Changes and leaving
Section titled “7. Changes and leaving”- Changes. These terms may change. The date at the top says when they last did. A change that affects what you pay is announced in advance (see the Payment Policy). Using the bot after a change means you accept it.
- Leaving. Remove the bot from your server at any time. Its stored settings are kept so that adding the bot back is painless; to have them deleted, see the Privacy page.
8. Contact
Section titled “8. Contact”Questions, problems or a deletion request: use /report in the bot, or ask in the support server.
