Privacy

Last updated: April 11, 2026

TL;DR Chessbar Mini collects no data about you. No analytics, no telemetry, no network calls, no third parties. Everything stays on your Mac.

What data we collect

None. Chessbar Mini does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data, usage data, or content you interact with in the app. The app makes no outbound network connections of any kind during normal operation.

Positions and settings

Positions you set up and app preferences are stored locally on your Mac in the standard macOS application support and preferences directories. They never leave your machine.

iCloud sync (optional)

If you enable iCloud sync in preferences, your app settings are synced across your Apple devices using Apple’s CloudKit. This data is stored in your own iCloud account and is governed by Apple’s privacy policy. We have no access to it.

Analytics and tracking

There are none. No analytics SDKs, no crash reporters that phone home, no advertising identifiers, no third-party trackers of any kind.

Children

Chessbar Mini is rated 4+ and safe for all ages. Because no data is collected, no data is collected from children either.

Changes to this policy

If this ever changes — for example, if a future version adds an optional feature that requires network access — we will update this page and the app will make the change obvious on first launch. The last-updated date above will reflect any revision.
