Terms of service

These terms cover use of CHESSVERSE Academy, Android application id com.chessverse.academy, version name 1.2.0 in the project, as that project stands on 15 November 2026. They also cover this website. They replace the terms that named version 1.1.3. If a store listing or a later build disagrees with the app you installed, the app you installed is what you have.

The service you actually get

You may use the app to play chess against the seven bots on your device, at all four strengths. Free opens the first Academy level, five puzzles a day, and two hints in a bot game. Coach and ATOM stay on the device. Online games and tournaments are not available. The app does not offer an account in the mounted interface, does not take a payment, and does not show an ad.

Nothing on this website is an offer to sell Plus, Pro or Premium. The figures on the subscriptions page are the owner’s recorded prices. There is no buy button because Google Play Billing is not connected.

Your archive

Progress stored by this build is on your device. You can export it, replace it by importing an archive, or delete it in Settings. Deleting it does not create a support ticket. Keep your own copy if you want one. An import that the app does not recognise is refused.

Acceptable use

Do not break the app, probe it for another person’s data, or present a bot, a lesson or a rating as an official title. There is no chat and no place to upload material for other players. Do not use the app to harm someone else. The draft game server, if it is ever switched on, is for playing chess, not for messages.

Accounts that are not open

Sign-up code exists for email, Google and Facebook. It does not run unless a build is given a Supabase URL and a publishable key, and the screen is mounted. If that happens later, the privacy policy has to be updated first, and a real way to delete the account has to exist. A nickname, if one is ever stored, is limited by the database rule to 3–20 characters from letters, digits and underscore.

Payments that are not open

If Google Play Billing is added later, Google Play sells the subscription, Google handles the payment, and the phone must still not store the card. Restoration and cancellation would be Google’s subscription controls. A trial described in the product note — one seven-day trial, then renewal unless cancelled, with one reminder about 48 hours before the end — is not implemented. The database flag that remembers a trial does not, by itself, stop a second trial. Do not rely on a trial that the app does not offer.

Advertising that is not shown

The app does not show ads. A later free plan is described as carrying ads outside an active game, lesson or puzzle, with a rewarded video only when you ask for it in a bot game. That rule is not a promise of a reward, because the ad function does not show an ad and does not grant a hint.

Intellectual property

The app, its lessons and its presentation are licensed to you for personal use on your device. You do not receive ownership of the software. A Stockfish bridge is in the source. In this version the settings screen says Stockfish is not loaded, and the review is a local search of depth 3. Puzzle and opening data shipped with the app keep the provenance files already in the project. This page does not restate those third-party licences as if they were written here.

Availability and responsibility

The app is provided as it runs on your device. Lessons are not certified by a federation. Bot strength is not a title. Ratings in the unfinished server code start from a stored number and are not a published official rating, because that server is not deployed. Mandatory consumer rights that cannot be waived still apply. The developer is an individual. Nothing in these terms limits liability or other rights where such a limitation is prohibited by applicable law.

Governing law

These terms are governed by Austrian law. If you are a consumer, this choice does not remove mandatory protections applicable under the law of your country of habitual residence, including protections under Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 593/2008 (Rome I).

Changes

These terms are dated 15 November 2026 and cover version 1.2.0. A later version will say so on this page. Using a later build after the terms change means those later terms, once they are actually shipped in the store listing or the app.
