pcb-rnd - privacy policy

+

+By using any service provided at repo.hu, you agree to this privacy policy. + +

Mailing list

+

+You can subscribe to the mailing list by sending a mail to it with that +contains the word subscribe in the subject or in the message. +

+To unsubscribe: +

+

+Note: (un)subscriptions are handled manually and may take anything between +hours and days to get done. +

+The mailing list software running at list.repo.hu will store your email address +as long as you are subscribed. This address is used only for receiving +mails you send to the list and deliver mail from the list to you. Other +pcb-rnd users and developers subscribed to the mailing list may use +this email address to contact you privately about topics related to +pcb-rnd - these are private emails, outside of the scope of this privacy +policy. +

+The mailing list has a publicly accessible archive; anything you post +will be published there. In the published mailing list archives most of +the email headers in the mailing list are hidden or masked, but the body +(content) of the email is not necessarily masked. +

+If you do not want your content to be entered in the public mailing list +archive, do not post to the mailing list. +

+Using the mailing list or the list archives for harvesting email addresses +and/or sending advertisements to those addresses is strictly prohibited. + +

Bugreports in private mail

+

+Developers may accept pcb-rnd bugreports at their private email boxes. Since +these mail are private, person-to-person mail, this privacy policy does not +cover them, only common sense applies. Before sending anything confidential, +e.g. board files, agree with the developer how he may handle the data. + + +

IRC

+

+No registration is required for using the IRC network at repo.hu. Your +visible identification, as per the IRC protocol, will include: +

    +
  • your nickname (that you can choose) +
  • your 'ident' (which is either served to the IRC server by your ident server or is a string chosen by you) +
  • your IP address or host name, as seen by the IRC server (if you are using the kiwi-irc webchat service, your IP will be encoded in your 'ident') +
  • your 'real name' field, as specified by you (does not have to be your real name). +

    +IRC channels on the repo.hu irc network are generally public. Any user +may log, quote or publish channel traffic. For some of the channels, +e.g. #pcb-rnd, the server publishes logs automatically. +The above data, with time stamps, is also visible in public irc logs. + +

    Running pcb-rnd

    +

    +Running pcb-rnd does not require any registration. The software does +not try to handle personal data in any way (except when you enter +such data as arbitrary text strings, typically to be part of your +design data). Pcb-rnd does not send your design data over the network, unless +you explicitly command it to do so (e.g. saving to a network file system). +

    +When configured so by the user, pcb-rnd may anonymously download files +from remote data repositories, such as edakrill or gedasymbols. These +sites may log your IP address and your request, according to their +privacy policy. + +

    Writing source code, svn write access

    +

    +To gain write access to svn, you will need to choose a publicly visible +user name. It is not possible to change that user name later. Once you +commit, your user name, commit message, the diff you commited and the date +all become part of the repository history. It is not possible to remove this +data from the repository history later. +

    +The lead developer grants svn write access. The lead developer may require that +you reveal your real name and electronic contact info to the lead developer +and/or to the audience. This is mainly required for copyright and communication +reasons. It is normally not possible to contribute code or svn diffs +anonymously and/or without letting pcb-rnd users and developers contact you. +

    +If you make substantial change to files with copyright banner, coordinated +with the lead developer, you may choose to add your copyright to that banner. +If you do so, the copyright year and your real name will become part of that +source file, normally part of the source distribution and the repository +history and will be dupped into an uncontrollable amount of publicly accessible +copies (most often outside of repo.hu). +

    +In other words, because of the nature of the technology being used +(version control, software distribution, packaging), if anything enters +the repository history, it is practically impossible to remove it from +publicly accessible material later. + + +
