Privacy statement
Chesschips keeps as little data as possible. There are no ads, no tracking and no analytics.
What we store
- With an account: your username, your email address, your password (stored only as a secure hash, never readable) and your training runs: which line, mode, mistakes, time and moves played.
- Without an account: nothing on the server. Your session's progress lives only in your browser tab and is gone when you leave.
Cookies and browser storage
- A session cookie keeps you logged in. It is needed for the site to work, so no consent is asked for it.
- A cookie remembers that you closed the "not logged in" message.
- Your board colour and piece set are saved in your browser (local storage) and never sent to the server.
We use your email address only to confirm your account and to reset your password, sent from no-reply@chesschips.com. No newsletters, no advertising, and your address is never shared. Accounts that are not confirmed within three days are deleted.
Third parties
Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which means your browser contacts Google's servers. Nothing else is shared with anyone.
Where and how long
Data is stored on a server in the Netherlands, for as long as your account exists.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct or delete your data at any time. Deleting your account removes all your training runs too.
