DRAFT for legal review. Not in force.
This page is a draft written for a lawyer to review before launch. It is not legal advice.
1. What this service is for
Uploading board designs and parts lists, having them checked and priced, and ordering custom-made boards and assembled boards for products you have the right to make. People order directly; AI agents order acting for a signed-in person.
2. Files we refuse
We may refuse an upload or an order — before or after the file check — when we have reason to believe the design or its use is:
- Weapons and munitions. Boards for weapons, weapon parts or accessories, munitions, or military programmes that applicable rules prohibit.
- Under export control in a way we cannot support. Designs or orders whose manufacture, export or end use needs a licence that is not in place, or that sanctions rules restrict. See "Export policy".
- Not yours to have made. Other people's designs you have no right or licence to use — including boards copied from a product you do not own the rights to. You keep that responsibility; see section 4.
- Unlawful at destination. Goods that are illegal to make, import or use where they are shipped.
- Otherwise unusable by us. Archives that are unsafe or hostile, content uploaded to attack the service, or uploads whose only purpose is to probe the service rather than order.
When we refuse before production, you are refunded under the rules of the terms of sale. When we learn of the problem after production has started, what can be refunded depends on the stage, and you may still be responsible for the order.
3. End use
Tell us honestly when we ask what the boards are for. Some orders require a written end-use declaration. A false declaration is a breach of these terms.
4. Your designs and other people's rights
You promise that you own the files you upload or have the rights needed to have them manufactured. If a third party claims that a design infringes its rights, that claim is between you and them, and you carry it [[LAWYER: write the indemnity wording in the strength the lawyer approves for B2B and for consumers]].
We do not review whether your design infringes anyone's patent or other rights — the file check is a manufacturing check. Silence from the check is not clearance.
5. Fair use of the service
- No attempts to break into accounts, other customers' data or the service's infrastructure.
- No automated use outside the API, the MCP server and the command-line tool we provide; agents must act inside the permissions their user granted.
- API keys are yours to keep secret; a key used is a key you used, until you revoke it.
- Prices, capabilities and supplier information shown for your quote are for ordering here, not for scraping and republishing [[DECIDE: include this clause / leave to the lawyer's drafting of a database-rights note]].
6. Consequences
Depending on the case: refusal of the upload or order, cancellation, account closure, keys revoked, and retention of evidence where the law allows or requires it. We report to authorities where we must [[LAWYER: confirm the reporting wording and when we may rather than must report]].
7. Questions
Not sure whether your project fits — for example dual-use boards for research? Write to [[OWNER: contact e-mail]] before you upload. Asking first is free.
