Privacy policy

The program

The Baronet chess program collects no personal data. It has no account, no analytics and no telemetry, and it never connects to the internet. Your games, preferences and lesson progress are stored only on your own device, in the program's settings folder, and you can delete them at any time.

This website

This website, the-baronet.com, is published by David Thoiron. It does not require you to create an account and does not ask for personal information, except through the contact form described below.

Server logs

Like every web server, the hosting provider records technical information about requests (IP address, date, page requested, browser type) for security and to keep the site running. These logs are not used to identify visitors.
