Overview
Maharajah is an offline-first chess game. Core gameplay does not require an account, sign-in, advertising profile, or cloud sync.
Data Collection
The app itself does not collect personal information for offline play. Game state, settings, saved games, and preferences are stored locally on your device.
Local Network Play
Maharajah may request local network access so players can host, discover, and join LAN games on the same Wi-Fi network. Local network data is used only for multiplayer connection functionality and is not used for tracking.
Optional Purchases
The app may offer optional supporter purchases through the platform store. These purchases are voluntary and do not unlock gameplay features, content, subscriptions, or competitive advantages. Purchase processing is handled by the platform store under its own terms and privacy policy.
Support Requests
If you contact support, you may choose to provide your email address, message content, screenshots, a prepared game report (via the Share button), or diagnostic details. Game reports may include the position, move history, and app context needed to reproduce an issue. This information is used only to answer your request, investigate issues, and improve future releases.
External Links
The app and website may link to external pages such as project pages, contributor pages, or platform store pages. Those services may process data under their own policies.
Third-Party Distribution
Platform stores such as the Apple App Store, Google Play, Microsoft Store, and GitHub Releases may collect analytics, purchase, crash, or download information under their own policies.
Children's Privacy
Maharajah is a general-audience board game and does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes
This policy may be updated when app features, store requirements, or support processes change. The latest version will be published on this page.
