7. Upload and display of PCB design data in PCB CAM Online Free

Our website allows authenticated users to upload and view various PCB and CAD file formats. The original uploaded file and temporary files created for import, conversion and display are stored only for the current session. They are deleted immediately when the viewer session is closed normally. If normal closing cannot be completed or the session ends unexpectedly, inactive session data is removed automatically, typically within 5 to 65 minutes after the last recorded activity.

If a successfully imported design contains a netlist and components, PCB CAM Online Free displays it only after two explicit confirmations. The user confirms their authority to release the design and accepts the special terms for free advanced design analysis.

This deletion process does not apply to the separate sanitised ODB++ development copy created only after the user has explicitly granted the design release. Identifying metadata, including names, email addresses, project or customer identifiers, user and computer names, and local paths, is removed or replaced from this copy where present and technically detectable. Only this sanitised copy is stored permanently in a protected internal area for technical analysis, quality assurance, product development, testing, and the training and improvement of statistical and AI-based models and methods. Sanitisation does not mean that the technical design is anonymous. The design is not made public or provided to other customers as a design file and is not used to manufacture or reproduce the specific customer product represented by it. The version displayed in the viewer remains unchanged.

Technical service providers may process released design data only on behalf of Schindler & Schill GmbH and may not use it to train or improve their own or publicly available AI or machine-learning models. Schindler & Schill GmbH also does not use a released design to commission the manufacture of the specific customer product represented by it.

To document the file-specific release, we store the user and session identifier, time and version of the accepted terms, both confirmations, technical content counts, checksums, processing status, and an internal identifier for the stored design version. The sanitised technical design version is stored permanently for the agreed development purposes. This permanent technical retention does not apply to personal data where applicable data-protection law requires earlier deletion or restriction. The release record is retained for the duration of use of the released design version and thereafter for as long as required to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

Session processing required to import, technically convert and display the uploaded design and to provide the selected free service is based on Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. The file-specific release record is processed on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interests are documenting the rights granted for a specific design, preventing misuse, and establishing, exercising or defending legal claims. The grant of technical rights is a contractual design release and not consent under data-protection law.

Personal data contained in the technical design is not intentionally used as a feature for training or analysis. If additional personal identifiers are subsequently identified in a stored development copy, they will be removed, suppressed, or otherwise excluded from further technical analysis where technically feasible and, in any event, where required under applicable data-protection law.

Where personal data nevertheless remains in a stored development copy and its continued processing is necessary, such processing is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR following an assessment of the interests involved. Our legitimate interests are the secure operation and integrity of the technical development dataset and the protection and defence of legal rights. The right to object is described in section 12.

PCB designs for which no release is requested continue to be processed only during the session and are not stored permanently for development or training.

Alternatively, the paid version is available. It does not create a development copy, store a design copy for analysis or training, or use the PCB data to improve products or models.
