Chess Openings Terms of Service

Effective November 7, 2026

These terms apply to your use of the Chess Openings: Learn & Quiz app ("the app") made by Hydtek Software Inc. ("Hydtek", "we", "us"). By using the app you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.

1. What the app is

Chess Openings teaches the names, moves and ideas of chess openings through short lessons and quizzes. It is for learning and entertainment. Opening names and move orders come from the Lichess open database of chess openings, which is in the public domain.

2. Your account

3. Fair play

Don't cheat, automate, or tamper with XP, streaks or other progress, and don't reverse-engineer, resell or misuse the app or our servers, or interfere with its ads. We may reset progress or suspend accounts that do.

4. Ads and purchases

The app is free and shows ads. If we offer in-app purchases, such as removing ads, they are sold and processed by Apple under Apple's terms, and can be restored on your devices through the app.

5. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how information is handled.

6. Licence

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the app on Apple devices you own or control, as permitted by the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions. The app's design, text and artwork belong to Hydtek.

7. Disclaimer

The app is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, to the extent permitted by law. We try to keep opening names, moves and descriptions accurate, but we don't guarantee them, and we don't guarantee that the app or your saved progress will be available without interruption.

8. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Hydtek is not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from your use of the app. Our total liability for any claim relating to the app is limited to the amount you paid us for the app in the 12 months before the claim, if any.

9. Apple

These terms are between you and Hydtek, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content, has no obligation to provide maintenance or support, and is not responsible for addressing any claims relating to the app. If the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple for a refund of any purchase price; Apple has no other warranty obligation. Apple is not responsible for investigating or defending any claim that the app infringes a third party's intellectual property. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.

10. Ending use

You can stop using the app at any time by deleting it, and delete your account in Settings. We may stop offering or supporting the app at any time; if we do, we'll give notice in the app where we reasonably can.

11. Changes and governing law

We may update these terms; the date at the top shows when they last changed. These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.
