There's also apps if your kids are into that... check out the Magnus Trainer (has much free content) : https://www.playmagnus.com/en It starts at a very easy level with the basics of chess.

I'm not sure about the details, but i imagine something like this; If Apple breaks the rules by placing "cookies" without user consent/knowledge, they may need to be fined. Whether they may or may not stop abusing the ru
