Kung-Fu Chess is a real-time chess game available on the web at chess.kalcodia.com and as apps for Android and iOS. This Privacy Policy explains what information the game uses, how that information is used, and the choices available to players.
The game stores a few preferences on your device: whether sound and haptics are on, and your chosen game speed, difficulty, and color. To reconnect you to an online game after a dropped connection or a reload, it also stores the current room code and a random player token. None of this identifies you.
Kung-Fu Chess does not ask for your name, email address, contacts, location, photos, or any account information.
Games against the computer and local two-player games run entirely on your device and send nothing to our servers. Online games are relayed through our game server, which receives the room code, your moves, and connection timing so it can keep both players in sync.
The game server keeps this information in memory only while the game is running and discards it when the game ends. Game records are not saved, and player activity is not logged. As with any website, our hosting infrastructure processes your IP address to deliver the connection.
Kung-Fu Chess does not use advertising, analytics, third-party tracking, or account services. We do not sell or share player data with third parties.
The Android app uses internet access for online play and vibration for optional haptic feedback. The iOS app uses the network for online play. Neither app requests access to your camera, microphone, location, contacts, or files.
Preferences remain on your device until you clear the app's or browser's data, or uninstall the app. They may be included in your device's own backups. Because there are no accounts and no saved game records, there is no server-side player data to delete.
Connections to the game server are encrypted with HTTPS and secure WebSockets. No method of transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Kung-Fu Chess is suitable for all ages and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children. Online games have no chat or player profiles.
This Privacy Policy may be updated when the game's features or data practices change. The effective date above will be revised when material changes are made.
