Terms of Service

Last updated: 19 September 2026

These terms govern your use of 99chess.com (“99chess”, “the service”). By creating an account or using the service you agree to them.

The service

99chess is a chess training service: you can play against an engine and other people, solve puzzles, import your games from chess.com or lichess, and receive engine and AI-generated analysis and training programs. The service is provided free of charge; some AI features consume credits (see below).

Your account

  • You are responsible for keeping your credentials safe and for what happens under your account.
  • Provide a working e-mail address — it is how we verify the account and how you recover it.
  • You must be at least 13 years old to use the service.

Credits

Certain AI features are metered with credits. Credits are a virtual accounting unit, not money: they have no cash value, are not transferable and are not refundable. Free credit allowances, prices and the set of features that consume credits may change as the product evolves.

Fair play and acceptable use

  • No engine or outside assistance in games against other people. Training modes against the bot are yours to explore.
  • No abuse: do not disrupt the service, probe it for vulnerabilities without permission, scrape it at scale, or use it to harass others.
  • We may suspend or close accounts that break these rules.

Your content and data

Your games and training data remain yours. You grant us the licence needed to store, analyse and display them to you — that is what the product does. Public game archives you link from chess.com or lichess are fetched under those platforms’ terms.

Intellectual property

The service, its design, texts and software are ours or our licensors’. Do not copy or resell them.

Disclaimers

The service is provided “as is”, without warranties. Analysis and coaching texts are automated and can be wrong; use your own judgement, especially in rated games elsewhere. We may change or discontinue features at any time.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from the use of a free service. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

Termination

You can stop using the service and ask us to delete your account at any time. We may terminate accounts that violate these terms.

Changes

If these terms change materially, we will update this page and the date above. Continued use after changes means acceptance.
