Chess.com's Fair Play Policy supports our mission to maintain a clean and fair platform for chess players around the world. In light of this mission, we reserve the right and discretion to monitor all chess games played on our platform.
You agree to support our mission of maintaining a clean and fair platform by not engaging in any dishonest, deceitful, fraudulent, or other similar conduct when playing on our platform or in our events, including the following:
- Visi ėjimai turi būti atlikti jūsų pačių.
- Jokiu būdu nesukčiaukite.
- Nesinaudokite kitų asmenų pagalba, įskaitant tėvus, draugus, trenerius ar kitą žaidėją.
- Do not use chess engines, software of any kind, bots, plugins, browser extensions, or any tools that analyze positions during play. We can detect if you are using any of these programs.
- Nenaudokite stalo lentos ar kitų šaltinių, kurie parodo geriausią ėjimą (tiek Kasdienėse, tiek Tiesioginėse Šachmatų partijose).
- You may use Opening Explorer or other books in Daily chess only (not in Online / Live play).
- Do not perform any automated analysis or “blunder checking“ of your games in progress.
- Neleiskite niekam kitam naudotis jūsų paskyra.
- Nesinaudokite kitų asmenų paskyromis.
- Dirbtinai nemanipuliuokite reitingais, mačų ar partijų rezultatais.
- Nesikiškite į kitų narių žaidžiamas partijas.
- Suspecting your opponent of using outside help is not an excuse to do the same. If you suspect someone is cheating, report the player to Chess.com.
NOTE: This Fair Play Policy applies to your use of our Services; however, it does not apply to your games that are not against other users, such as in the game mode versus Chess.com computer (i.e., non-human, virtual) “bots“. However, please note that we may expand or narrow any applicable exceptions to the Fair Play Policy at any time without notice to you, so you should remain familiar with this policy.
WARNING: Consistent with our User Agreement, if we determine or suspect that you have violated our Fair Play Policy in any way, then we may close your account and label it publicly closed for Fair Play violation(s). We also reserve and maintain the complete right to take any action that we may deem appropriate in response to a violation(s) or suspected violation(s) of our Fair Play Policy, including but not limited to publicly disclosing facts, communications, and findings regarding any violation(s) of the Fair Play Policy and disclosing such materials to governmental authorities or chess governing bodies. All account status changes are made in our sole discretion. Under some circumstances, including for titled players, we may, at our discretion, allow you to open a second-chance account, subject to additional terms and conditions, including your provision of a written acknowledgement of your violation(s) in the form of agreement we provide. If further violations of the Fair Play Policy are detected, you will be subject to a lifetime ban from Chess.com. For the avoidance of doubt, Chess.com has no obligation to provide second-chance accounts, even for titled players, and reviews Fair Play Policy violations on a case-by-case basis.
Our User Agreement also has specific rules of conduct and other restrictions that users must abide by when using the Services. As a condition of your use of our Services, you must abide by both this Fair Play Policy and our User Agreement. In the event of any conflict between our User Agreement and this Fair Play Policy, our User Agreement will supersede. All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Fair Play Policy have the respect meanings set forth in the User Agreement.
We reserve the right to modify this policy at any time with or without notice to you, in which case we will update the “Updated At“ date at the top of this Fair Play Policy.
