Checkmate ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. Checkmate is operated by IT PATH LLC.

Last updated: January 13, 2026

Overview

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when you use the Checkmate application (the "App") and related services.

We do not run third-party advertising in the App, and we do not sell your personal information.

Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we may collect:

Name
Email address
Password (stored and managed securely through Firebase Authentication)

Social Login Information

If you choose to sign in using a third-party provider, we may receive information from that provider, such as your name, email, and a unique account identifier. We currently support social login through:

Google
Apple
Facebook

The information we receive depends on the provider and your privacy settings with that provider.

Usage & Device Information

We may collect limited technical information necessary to operate and secure the App, such as device type, app version, and basic diagnostic and crash information.

Services We Use (Firebase)

We use Firebase services to provide core functionality such as authentication, app reliability, and security. Firebase is a platform provided by Google. Depending on the features enabled in the App, Firebase may process certain information on our behalf (for example, authentication tokens and diagnostic events).

For more information, you can review Google/Firebase privacy resources. This policy explains our practices; third-party services have their own policies.

To operate, maintain, and improve the App's features and performance.
To provide support and respond to your requests.
To detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, and security issues.

Business changes: if we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures designed to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
