Privacy Updates & GDPR

[Chess.com] Hello {NAME}! We usually reach out to you to announce exciting new features or additional awesome content, but… Like many companies who’ve been notifying you lately, we’re updating our Privacy Policy and clarifying our data handling practices in response to the new European privacy law - the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) - which goes into effect May 25th, 2018. While not as exciting as 4-player chess or Danny Rensch’s latest video, we take this stuff seriously and want to make sure you’re informed about our updates. Most simply, nothing is changing about the way we process or handle your data. We’ve always kept our users’ data personal and private. We’re not in the business of selling your personal information. While GDPR only holds us accountable for how we process EU users’ personal data, we’ve taken this opportunity to review our practices and ensure that our high standards for data privacy extend to all our more than 20 million users worldwide. Our mission is to bring you the joy of chess by providing the best online platform to play, learn and share the game. Everything you tell us about yourself is handled securely and transparently. For more details, take a look at our [updated Privacy Policy here](. See you online!
