Your profile name and chosen photo, saved games and hands, lesson progress, puzzle history, practice scores, preferences, and simulated practice balances are stored locally on your device. A profile photo you choose is provided through the system photo picker and remains on your device.

Limited product analytics

The app uses PostHog’s United States service for limited product analytics. When analytics is enabled, PostHog assigns a random identifier to this app installation and sends it with named events such as opening a room, starting or completing an activity, receiving a coaching insight, choosing a continuation, viewing a paywall, or starting, completing, or restoring a purchase. The identifier is not your Apple ID, advertising identifier, name, email address, or in-app profile, but it allows events from the same installation to be associated over time. The app does not associate analytics with your name or an account.

Events include categorical activity details, a timestamp rounded to the start of the UTC day, and, for activity start and completion events, a random activity-session identifier. Purchase events may include only the chosen access type—monthly, annual, or lifetime—the paywall source, and whether a restore found active access. PostHog also assigns a unique identifier to each event. The event identifier and network processing may reflect more precise capture or delivery timing. The app does not use PostHog identify calls, automatic screen or interaction capture, session replay, surveys, feature-flag evaluation events, push-notification capture, or crash and error capture.

Analytics events do not include chess positions, move notation, poker cards, hand histories, blackjack cards, exact balances, profile photos, names, email addresses, free-form text, transaction identifiers, receipts, payment methods, or localized prices. The app sets PostHog’s geo-IP disable control on every analytics event and does not send location fields. As with any internet request, PostHog’s service receives the network request needed to deliver the event.

Your choice

Product analytics is enabled by default. To disable it, open Profile and turn off Share product analytics. Disabling it takes effect immediately and prevents the app from creating new analytics events.

Accounts, ads, and purchases

The app does not require an account and does not contain advertising. It does not support real-money gambling or cash-out. Apple processes Professor Orin+ purchases under the applicable App Store terms. The app reads Apple-verified entitlement status and stores only the access type and, for subscriptions, its expiration date on the device so verified access can continue offline. Professor Orin does not receive or store payment-card details.
