Queen's Chess is a small, independent chess platform. We only collect the minimum data needed to run the service: your username, a securely hashed password, your friends list, the private messages you send through the platform, and a record of your matches (moves, results, and replays).

We do not collect or store your real name, address, phone number, payment information, or any other personal data beyond what's listed above. Email address, when provided at registration, is used only for account recovery.

Your data is used solely to operate core features: logging you in, matching you with opponents, showing your friends and messages, and displaying your match history and leaderboard ranking.

Messages and friend lists are visible only to you and the relevant other player; they are not sold, shared with advertisers, or used for profiling.

You may request the deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us through the site.

We use a simple cookie to remember your language preference; it contains no personal data.

This policy may be updated occasionally to reflect changes to the service. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
