Privacy Policy

Chess Clock · Last updated 27 June 2026

Chess Clock is a tournament-style chess clock for iPhone. It is built to do one thing well, and that includes respecting your privacy. This policy explains, in plain terms, what the app does and does not do with your information.

The short version

Chess Clock does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data. There are no accounts, no analytics, no advertising, no tracking, and no third-party SDKs. The app never connects to the internet.

What stays on your device

Your preferences (chosen time control, first-move side, clock theme, press sound, and the haptics and sound toggles) are saved locally on your device using Apple's standard settings storage. This information never leaves your iPhone, is not visible to us, and is removed if you delete the app.

Data we collect

None. We have no servers and no way to receive information from the app.

Tracking

Chess Clock does not track you. It does not use the Advertising Identifier, does not build a profile, and does not contact any analytics or advertising network.

Children

Because the app collects no data at all, it is safe for users of any age, including children under 13.

Changes to this policy

If the app ever changes in a way that affects privacy, this page will be updated and the date at the top revised. Material changes will be reflected before the new version ships.
