Privacy Policy
Effective date: March 26, 2026
Introduction
Cold War Chess ("we", "our", or "the app") is a strategy game for iOS, Android, and macOS. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what information the app collects, how it is used, and your rights regarding that information.
Information We Collect
Cold War Chess collects minimal data:
- Anonymous gameplay statistics: We collect anonymous, aggregated gameplay data such as missions completed, win/loss records, and difficulty selections. This data is collected through Apple's built-in CloudKit service and contains no personally identifiable information. It is used solely to improve game balance and the player experience.
- No account required: We do not require you to create an account or provide any personal information such as your name, email address, or phone number to use the app.
- No third-party analytics or tracking: We do not use any third-party analytics, advertising frameworks, or tracking tools. All gameplay data is collected exclusively through Apple's CloudKit infrastructure.
Data Storage
Your game progress and save data are stored locally on your device. Anonymous gameplay statistics are stored via Apple's CloudKit service. We do not operate external servers for data collection. CloudKit data is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy.
On Android and macOS, your data is stored locally on your device only.
Third-Party Services
Cold War Chess does not integrate with or share data with any third-party advertisers or data brokers. The only external service used is Apple's CloudKit for anonymous gameplay statistics.
Children's Privacy
Cold War Chess does not knowingly collect any personal information from children. The app does not require any personal data to function.
Data Deletion
You can delete all local app data at any time by deleting the app from your device. On Apple devices, you can manage or delete your iCloud data through Settings > Apple ID > iCloud > Manage Storage. Anonymous gameplay statistics that have already been aggregated cannot be attributed to individual users and therefore cannot be individually deleted.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
