Privacy Policy
We collect only the information needed to deliver ChessGyan experiences and never sell personal data. This policy explains what we store, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information we collect
Account details you share (name, email, profile info) and optional game-related metadata (PGNs, lesson notes, ratings).
Usage analytics that help us improve features — performance timings, device type, and anonymized interaction events.
Support conversations (email, Discord handle) so we can respond to issues and track resolutions.
How we use data
To authenticate you across ChessGyan pages, sync game history, and personalize study plans.
To send transactional emails (account verification, rating summaries, security warnings) and optional newsletters if you opt in.
To protect the platform from abuse, detect suspicious logins, and maintain gameplay integrity.
How we share data
We do not sell personal data. We share essentials only with infrastructure providers (hosting, analytics, payment) bound by confidentiality agreements.
If the law requires it (e.g., court orders), we may disclose limited records after reviewing the request.
Your choices
Update or delete profile data anytime from your ChessGyan account settings or by emailing privacy@chessgyan.com.
Export your PGNs and account data upon request.
Opt out of newsletters directly from every email footer.
