PCB contents stay on your device.

The downloaded product processes supported EAGLE and KiCad files on your device. The fixed release was tested with zero external page or worker requests. This does not cover browser extensions, the operating system or unverified environments. BoardPort does not receive your design files or generated analysis reports.

Cloudflare hosts this website and the download-authorization database. Hosting and security services may process IP addresses, browser details, requested URLs and access times to deliver and protect the service. BoardPort adds no advertising trackers or analytics to the downloaded offline software.

When checkout opens, Stripe Checkout collects payment and billing information, email, business and authorized-person names, purchaser type, country, intended business use and terms consent. Card details are entered with Stripe, not into BoardPort's database.

To improve the path from an example to purchase, the website records a coarse search/AI/referral category, a fixed landing-page category, and whether a sample was opened, its result displayed, the purchase page reached or a Checkout session successfully created. Checkout creation is not a payment. A random browser session lasts 30 minutes; only its hash is stored on the server. QA visits are recorded separately. Records are removed after 90 days by scheduled cleanup; order records follow their separate retention rules.

No names, email, IP addresses, full URLs, queries, board files, report contents or payment-card details are stored in these measurement tables. A hashed Checkout reference can connect these events to the existing confirmed order record. Disable website measurement with the footer control. DNT and GPC are respected. The setting applies to this browser; previously recorded events expire on the stated schedule. Hosting/security processing described above is separate.

For sales records and tax review across Signal & Ship products, the operator records billing country and region, available card-issuing country, payment amounts, tax, refunds, dates and payment-provider status. These monitoring records use pseudonymous payment references and exclude full addresses, names, email and card numbers. Billing location does not by itself prove tax residence.

The BoardPort server processes the confirmed transaction to authorize delivery and handle refunds or disputes. Its database stores order status, amount, currency, country, timestamps, purchaser type, accepted license and artifact fingerprints, and keyed hashes of identity and payment references. Those hashes are pseudonymous identifiers, not a promise of anonymity. Plain names, email and stated-use text are not stored in this order database; Stripe retains its transaction records.

Keep your private delivery link confidential. A full refund or final chargeback disables future downloads but cannot erase a local copy.

Messages to support@signalandship.com are forwarded to the operator's Signal & Ship Gmail mailbox. The operator uses your email and the information you send to answer product questions, disclose seller information, verify an order or process a refund. Do not send PCB files, secrets or payment-card details.

Order and support records are retained as needed for license access, support, refunds, disputes and applicable recordkeeping obligations. There is no automatic deletion schedule. Contact the same address for access, correction or deletion requests; records that must be retained may not be immediately deletable. Cloudflare, Stripe and Google may process data outside Japan under their respective service terms and privacy notices.
