Privacy by design
Your analysis runs in your browser. We don't upload your games to our servers.
Last updated: February 11, 2026
The short version
Chessomy runs in your browser. Your analysis stays on-device unless you export it. We don't collect or sell personal information, and you can delete local data anytime. We use anonymous analytics to improve the site and fetch your public games from Chess.com or Lichess when you ask us to.
What we don't collect
What stays on your device
Parsed games, engine evaluations, and accuracy summaries live only in your browser storage.
Preferred usernames, analysis presets, and study mode settings are stored locally.
The app shell and Stockfish engine are cached after your first visit for offline access.
Clear your browser storage at any time to remove all Chessomy data.
Third-party services
When you enter a username, we send it to the Chess.com or Lichess public API to fetch your games. Only your public username is shared — no other data leaves your browser.
We use Vercel Analytics to collect anonymous, aggregated page-view and interaction data. No personal identifiers or cookies are involved.
We collect anonymous performance metrics (page load times, web vitals) through Vercel Speed Insights to keep the site fast.
Your IP address is briefly held in server memory to enforce API rate limits and prevent abuse. It is not persisted, logged, or used for tracking.
