Terms of Use

Last updated: 8 October 2026

These terms govern the use of the StudyChessBoard website. By registering or using the site you accept them. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.

1. Who provides the service

DOO StudyChessBoard
Železnička 20, Novi Sad, Republic of Serbia
Company number (MB): 22012118
Tax number (PIB): 114360474
E-mail: support@wbchess.com
Phone: +381-60-400-13-64

Referred to below as "we" or "the site".

2. What we provide

  • online games against other players and against bots, with clocks and a rating;
  • game review that shows which tactical motifs you played and which you missed;
  • practice of the gaps found by the review, and a skills profile;
  • a catalogue of tactical motifs, classic games, opening theory and printable materials;
  • a converter for chess file formats.

A bot is always shown as a bot. The feature set may change: we keep developing the site, adding and occasionally removing capabilities.

3. Your account

  • Registration details must be accurate and your e-mail address must work.
  • An account is personal. Do not share your password and do not use someone else's account. You are responsible for activity carried out under your account.
  • If you notice that someone else is using your account, tell us immediately.
  • An account for a child under 16 is created by a parent or other legal guardian, who accepts these terms on the child's behalf. In EU countries with a lower age limit, that country's limit applies.
  • A guest may play without an account; such games are casual and do not change any rating.

4. Credits and payment

  • Game review uses credits. You receive a number of credits when you register, can earn more by playing rated games under the rules shown on the Credits page, and can buy credit packages. Current packages and prices are shown on the Credits page.
  • Payments are processed by our partner PayPro Global, acting as merchant of record. Their terms also apply to the transaction and your invoice comes from them.
  • Refunds are handled according to PayPro Global's policy. You may also send a refund request to us and we will help you file it.
  • If you are a consumer in the European Union, you have a 14-day right of withdrawal. For digital content made available immediately, that right ends once you start using the content — you confirm this at checkout.

5. Rules of use

On the site you may not:

  • use chess engines or outside help in rated games;
  • manipulate ratings, for example by agreeing results with another player or using several accounts;
  • insult, threaten or behave aggressively towards other users;
  • impersonate another person or organisation;
  • attempt to bypass access restrictions, break into the site, disrupt its operation or automatically harvest its content;
  • copy, resell or publish site materials without the rights holder's permission.

6. Your content

  • You keep the rights to the games you play and the files you upload. You grant us the right to store them and process them technically — analysis, conversion, display to you — to the extent needed to operate the service.
  • You are responsible for holding the rights to what you upload and for not infringing anyone else's copyright.

7. Our rights in the site

The software, design, interface texts, articles, puzzle and game databases and other site material — other than user content — belong to DOO StudyChessBoard or are used by us on a lawful basis. Using the site does not transfer those rights to you.

8. Suspension and termination

  • We may restrict or block access in case of a serious breach of these terms — for example engine assistance, rating manipulation, aggression towards other users, or attempts to break in. Where possible we warn you first.
  • You may stop using the site at any time and request deletion of your account by writing to support@wbchess.com.

9. Availability and liability

  • We aim for uninterrupted service but cannot guarantee that it will be free of downtime and errors. The game review is automatic and may miss or mislabel a motif.
  • We are not liable for failures caused by your equipment, your internet connection or the acts of third parties.
  • Our liability is limited to the amount you paid us over the preceding 12 months, except in cases of intent, gross negligence, injury to life or health, and other cases where limitation of liability is not permitted by law.
  • If you are a consumer, these limitations do not affect the rights granted to you by the mandatory law of your country of residence.

10. Personal data

How we handle personal data is described in our Privacy Policy, which forms an integral part of these terms.

11. Changes to these terms

We may change these terms. A new version is published on this page with a new date, and we announce significant changes in advance by e-mail or with a notice on the site. Continuing to use the site after the changes take effect means you accept them.

12. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the law of the Republic of Serbia. Disputes are heard by the court at the seat of DOO StudyChessBoard. If you are a consumer in the European Union, you keep the protection of the mandatory rules of your country of residence and the right to bring proceedings before the courts where you live.
