Privacy Policy for Chess Timer
Who this policy covers
This Privacy Policy explains how the Chess Timer mobile app handles information when you use it.
Information you provide
Player names and timer settings such as starting time, sounds, and theme color are stored only on your device. They are not transmitted to the developer as part of the normal operation of the app.
Advertising
If ads are enabled, the app uses Google Mobile Ads SDK (AdMob) to display banner ads. AdMob may process identifiers, IP address, device and app information, language, impressions, clicks, and diagnostic signals according to Google policies.
Learn more: Google Privacy Policy and Google Advertising.
Network access and diagnostics
Internet access may be used to load ads. Core timer functionality can work without a network connection. The app does not integrate third-party analytics or crash-reporting SDKs.
How information is used
- To provide timer behavior and preserve local preferences.
- To display and measure ads when ads are enabled.
- To comply with legal obligations where applicable.
Sharing and retention
Locally stored player names and timer settings are not shared with third parties by the developer. On-device settings remain until app storage is cleared or the app is uninstalled. Ad-related retention is governed by Google.
Children and international use
The app does not knowingly collect personal information from children. If ads are enabled, third-party providers such as Google may process data on systems located in other countries.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated from time to time. The effective date at the top of the page will reflect the latest published version.
