Content License

This page explains who owns what you put into Pinout, who owns the results it generates, and how each side may use them.

Last updated: 25 July 2026

01Your inputs stay yours

You keep ownership of the project ideas, descriptions, board choices and any files you enter. You grant us a limited licence to process that content solely to operate the service and generate your requested output, and to store it if you use a saved workspace.

02Your generated output

  • As between you and us, you may use the plans, parts lists, sketches, checklists and scripts generated for your own personal, educational or hobby projects.
  • You may export, print and share your output, provided you keep the hobby-reference and low-voltage nature clear and do not present it as a certified professional deliverable.
  • Illustrative sketches are not to scale and are not manufacturing drawings — treat them as references, not fabrication data.

03What you may not do

  • Do not resell or redistribute the output as a standalone product or dataset, or use it to build a competing generation service.
  • Do not present output as certified engineering, or use it for safety-critical, commercial-certification or unlawful purposes.
  • Do not remove safety notices or the ‘sketch — not to scale’ stamp when sharing sketches.

04Our brand and software

The Pinout name, brand assets, site design, imagery and underlying software are owned by EMBEDDED ENGINEER LIMITED or its licensors and are not licensed to you except as needed to use the service.

05Third-party rights

You are responsible for ensuring your project and any names, logos or designs you add do not infringe third-party intellectual property. Component names in a parts list are generic placeholders — verify actual parts and their licences yourself.

06No training on your content

We do not use your inputs or generated results to train our own or any third party's AI models. See the Privacy Policy for detail.
