Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 5, 2026

Our Commitment to Privacy

At DevWire, we believe in transparency and your right to privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our PCB design platform. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you have control over your data.

Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your email address and any profile information you choose to provide. This information is used to authenticate your account and personalize your experience.

Project Data

Your PCB designs, project files, and related metadata are stored locally in your browser's localStorage. We do not have access to your project data unless you explicitly choose to share it.

Usage Analytics

We collect anonymized usage statistics to improve our platform, including pages visited, features used, and general performance metrics. This data cannot be used to identify you personally.

How We Use Your Information

Legal Compliance

Data Storage and Security

Local Storage

Your project data is stored locally in your browser using localStorage technology. This means your designs never leave your device unless you explicitly export or share them. We cannot access your project files remotely.

Authentication Security

We use Supabase authentication with industry-standard security measures including encrypted connections, secure password hashing, and protection against common web vulnerabilities.

Data Encryption

All data transmission between your browser and our servers is encrypted using HTTPS/TLS protocols. Your account information is protected with enterprise-grade encryption.

We work with trusted service providers (like Supabase for authentication) who help us operate our platform. These providers are contractually required to protect your data and use it only for providing services to us.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose your information if required by law, legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of DevWire, our users, or others.

Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience, remember your preferences, and analyze how you use our platform. You can control cookie settings through your browser.
