Data Retention and Deletion

We are committed to minimizing data collection and protecting user privacy. Chess Buddy AI does not require users to create an account and does not collect or store personally identifiable information such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, or location data.

The app may temporarily process limited technical or gameplay-related data to enable core functionality. For example, during online multiplayer sessions, temporary game data (such as moves or session codes) may be transmitted and stored briefly to synchronize gameplay between players. This data is automatically deleted after the session ends or within a short retention period.

We do not use user data for advertising, tracking, or profiling purposes.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding your data, or if you would like to request deletion of any data associated with your use of the app, you may contact us at:

support@chessbuddy.io

We will review and respond to all requests in accordance with applicable data protection regulations.
