Privacy Policy

AGBoard - PCBEditor ("the app") processes your PCB files entirely on your device. We do not collect, track, sell or share your personal data. This policy explains the app's limited network use and what stays local.

Data and tracking

The app does not collect personal data and contains no analytics, advertising or third-party tracking SDKs. It does not create an AGBoard account or advertising identifier.

Your PCB files

Gerber, Excellon, DXF, ODB++, Eagle, Landrex BoardView, netlist and component placement files that you open are read and processed locally on your iPhone or iPad. They are never uploaded to us or to any third party. Once App Store access has been verified, viewing and editing your boards does not use an AGBoard server.

Version verification

When the app starts or becomes active, it requests https://agboard-app.com/version.json only to compare the installed version with the latest published version, so it can offer an update you are free to dismiss. The request does not include PCB files, account or payment data, or an identifier used for analytics or advertising. As with any HTTPS connection, the hosting service receives the IP address needed to return the file; AGBoard does not use this request for tracking.

Subscriptions

Purchases and subscription status are handled by Apple through StoreKit and your Apple Account. AGBoard receives only the verified entitlement needed to unlock the app; we do not receive your payment details. Apple's privacy policy applies to App Store transactions.

Settings stored on your device

The app stores your preferences (such as display options, saved component parser profiles and recent files) and the number of free file opens already used locally on your device. The free-open counter is also kept in the iOS Keychain so a normal reinstall on the same device does not reset it. This information stays on your device and is not transmitted to us.

Photo library

If you choose to export a board image, the app asks permission to save that image to your photo library. The app only writes the image you explicitly export; it does not read or browse your existing photos.

Sharing and exports

When you export a PNG, PDF, CSV report or project file, that file is created on your device and shared only through the destinations you choose via the standard iOS share sheet. Those destinations (for example Mail or Files) are governed by their own privacy policies.

Children's privacy

The app does not collect data from anyone, including children. It is rated 4+.

Your rights

The controller for the limited processing described above is the publisher named on the Legal Notice page.

The version check is served over HTTPS, and the hosting provider records the IP address needed to return the file in its own server logs. That is the only personal data involved, its legal basis is our legitimate interest in telling you when an update is required, and it is retained only for the period the hosting provider applies to its logs. We do not read those logs, combine them with anything, or use them to identify you.

Where the GDPR or a comparable law applies to you, you may ask for access to your data, its rectification or erasure, a restriction of the processing, or object to it, and you may ask to receive it in a portable form. Write to support@agboard-app.com; we answer at the address you write from, since we hold no account to identify you by.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In France that is the CNIL (cnil.fr).

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we will update this page and revise the date above.
