Privacy Policy for ChessDream Analysis Extension

    Effective Date: July 17, 2025

    This Privacy Policy describes how the ChessDream Analysis extension ("we," "us," or "our") handles information when you use our browser extension.

    Our core philosophy is to be transparent and respect your privacy. Our extension is designed to be a simple tool with a clear purpose, collecting only the minimum information necessary to function.

    1. Information We Collect

    The only information the extension collects is the Portable Game Notation (PGN) of a completed chess game from the chess.com website. This action is only initiated when you, the user, explicitly click the "Analyze with ChessDream" button.

    The PGN data includes:

    • The moves of the game.
    • The chess.com usernames of the players involved.
    • Other game metadata such as the date, result, and time control.

    The extension does not collect any other personal information, browsing history, or data from your computer or browser.

    2. How We Use Your Information

    The collected PGN is used for the single, core purpose of the extension:

    To open a new tab and pass the PGN data to the ChessDream analysis website via a URL parameter, allowing you to analyze your game without manually copying and pasting it.

    We do not use this information for any other purpose, such as advertising, tracking, or analytics.

    3. Data Storage and Sharing

    The ChessDream Analysis extension itself does not store any of the PGN data. The information is held in memory only for the brief moment required to open the new tab and is discarded immediately after.

    We do not share, sell, or transfer your information to any third parties. The PGN is sent directly from your browser to the ChessDream website and nowhere else.

    4. Your Consent

    By installing the ChessDream Analysis extension and clicking the "Analyze with ChessDream" button, you consent to the collection and use of your game's PGN as described in this policy.

    5. Changes to This Policy

    We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
