Terms of Use

These are the rules for using ChessWhiz. They're short on purpose.

Last updated: June 2, 2026

Use it for kids

ChessWhiz is designed for children learning chess. A parent or guardian should set it up and supervise. By using the site you confirm you're a parent/guardian (or 18+ using it for yourself).

No guarantees

ChessWhiz is provided as-is. Coach Pawn is an AI — it occasionally gets things wrong. Use it as a learning aid, not as the final word on chess instruction. Don't use coaching responses as authoritative chess analysis for tournament play.

Don't break it

Don't scrape the site, abuse the API, or try to extract Coach Pawn's prompts via prompt injection. Don't use ChessWhiz to harass anyone or generate harmful content.

Plans and limits

ChessWhiz may limit free features and may add paid plans later. Payments are not part of the current parent-account foundation. If paid plans launch, pricing, renewal, cancellation, and refund terms will be shown before checkout.

Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, ChessWhiz and its maker are not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from your use of the site. Maximum liability is capped at fees you paid in the prior 12 months (which is zero for free-tier users).

Changes

We may update these terms. We'll update the “last updated” date above when we do. Continued use after changes means you accept them.
