Terms and conditions

Last updated 5 November 2026

By downloading or using Zycord, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use it.

1. What Zycord is

Zycord is a desktop application that starts a small process named after a game's executable so that Discord treats the game as running. It is provided free of charge, as open source software under the MIT License.

2. Discord is a separate service

Zycord is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Discord Inc. Your use of Discord remains governed by Discord's own terms of service and community guidelines. Nothing in these terms modifies or overrides Discord's terms.

3. Account risk is yours

Using Zycord may breach Discord's terms of service. Discord may remove quest progress, restrict, suspend or terminate accounts it considers to be automating quests. You accept that risk entirely. The authors and maintainers of Zycord accept no responsibility for any action Discord takes against your account.

4. Acceptable use

You may:

  • Use Zycord on accounts you own.
  • Read, modify and redistribute the source under the MIT License.
  • Build it from source and inspect what it does.

You may not:

  • Use Zycord to farm quests or rewards across multiple accounts.
  • Use Zycord to sell, resell or otherwise monetise quest completion or rewards.
  • Present Zycord as affiliated with, endorsed by, or approved by Discord.
  • Use Zycord to break any law that applies to you.

5. No warranty

Zycord is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. The entire risk as to the quality and performance of the software is with you.

6. Limitation of liability

In no event shall the authors or copyright holders be liable for any claim, damages or other liability, whether in an action of contract, tort or otherwise, arising from, out of or in connection with the software or the use or other dealings in the software. This includes, but is not limited to, loss of account access, loss of virtual items or progress, loss of data and loss of profits.

7. What Zycord does to your computer

Zycord writes files to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Zycord: settings, logs, the prepared session stubs and a WebView2 profile. It starts and stops the stub processes it created. It does not install a service, modify the registry beyond standard application behaviour, or change Discord's installation. You are responsible for reviewing what the software does before running it.

8. Third-party components

Zycord uses the Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime and its managed wrapper, both provided by Microsoft under their own licence terms. It is built with the .NET Framework that ships with Windows. It links to no Discord library and communicates with no Discord service.

9. Updates

Zycord does not update itself and does not check for updates. New versions are published on the project's releases page. Continuing to use an old version is your choice.

10. Changes to these terms

These terms may change between releases. The current version is always on this page. Continued use after a change means you accept the new terms.

11. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the country in which the maintainer resides, without regard to conflict of law provisions. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect.
