Delete Your CheckChess Account

Last updated: 26 August 2026

Option 1 — Delete it yourself, in the app

If CheckChess is installed on your device:

This is instant and permanently removes your account.

Option 2 — Request deletion by email

If you no longer have the app installed, or can't sign in, send an email to contact@chessnewlife.com from the address associated with your account, with the subject "Delete my CheckChess account". We verify the request and delete your account within 30 days.

What gets deleted

If you use the app as a guest

A guest session is an anonymous account with no email address, so neither option above applies to it: there is nothing to sign in to, and no address we could verify a request from. Deleting the app removes your access to that session and its history permanently.

If you want a guest session deleted from our servers rather than just abandoned, convert it into a full account in the app first — your history is preserved — and then use Option 1.

What is retained, and for how long

Anonymised, aggregated statistics derived from your activity may be retained after deletion; they cannot be linked back to you. See the Privacy Policy for full details.
