Terms of Service

1. Who we are and what these terms cover

circuitmcp.net and CircuitMCP are provided by Holley Brothers Design (holleybrothersdesign.com, “we”, “us”). These terms govern your use of this website, your CircuitMCP account, organizations and subscriptions. The CircuitMCP software you install is governed by the End User License Agreement (EULA); if these terms and the EULA conflict about the software, the EULA applies. By creating an account or starting a subscription you agree to these terms. If you do so for a company, you confirm you may bind it, and “you” means that company.

2. Accounts

• Give accurate information, including a working email address, and keep it current.
• An account is for one person. Keep your password and two-factor device safe; you are responsible for activity under your account.
• Two-factor authentication is required for organization owners and admins.
• Tell us promptly at support@circuitmcp.net if you think your account or license key has been compromised.

3. Organizations

A Business subscription belongs to an organization. Its owner is responsible for the subscription and for who is invited. Owners and admins can invite and remove members, change the number of seats, release seats and regenerate the license key; members can view the key and seats and use the software. Removing a member ends their access to the organization's key on this website; regenerate the key if they should also stop using it on their machines.

4. Subscriptions, trials and billing

• Plans and prices are shown on the pricing page. Payments are processed by Stripe; we never receive your full card details.
• Free trial. Your first Individual plan and your first Business plan can each start with a free trial. A payment method is required. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, your subscription starts and you are charged automatically. Business plans need a company email address. There is one trial per person for each plan type and one per organization, one Business trial per company (by email domain), and a card already used for a trial on another account can't start one; deleting an account or organization doesn't reset this. If we can tell before checkout that a trial isn't available, our pricing or billing page says so and the subscription starts paid. If we find out after checkout, we cancel that subscription before it charges you and email you; you can then subscribe without a trial. Write to support@circuitmcp.net to ask for an exception.
• Renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each monthly or annual period until cancelled.
• Seat changes. Added seats are charged pro rata for the rest of the current period and take effect when that payment succeeds. Removed seats stay available until the end of the period you have paid for and then stop renewing.
• Price changes apply from your next renewal, and we will email you at least 30 days before. If we promised you a price lock when you subscribed, we honour it for the period stated.
• Taxes. We do not add sales tax or VAT to our prices. You are responsible for any taxes that apply to your purchase where you are.
• Failed payments. If a renewal payment fails (including the first payment after a trial), we email you and retry. The license keeps working for one day after the first failed payment; after that it stops renewing until the payment goes through, and machines stop when their current lease ends. If it is not resolved, the subscription ends.

5. Cancellation and refunds

You can cancel any time from your billing page; the subscription runs to the end of the period you have paid for. Refunds are covered by our refund policy: unused whole months of an annual plan can be refunded, monthly plans are not refunded. Charging back a payment instead of contacting us lets us suspend the license while the dispute is open.

6. License keys and seats

• Your key lets the number of machines your plan includes run CircuitMCP at the same time. You may install it on any number of machines.
• Keep the key within your account or organization. Don't publish it or share it with other companies.
• The software checks in with our license server to obtain and renew a lease, and works offline until the lease ends.
• We may suspend or revoke a key for non-payment, a chargeback, a breach of these terms or the EULA, or to protect you if the key appears compromised. We will tell you why unless the law prevents it.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• bypass, disable or interfere with licensing, seat limits or other technical limits;
• copy, resell, sublicense or rent the software or access to it, except as the EULA allows;
• reverse engineer the software except where the law expressly permits it;
• attack, overload, probe or scrape this website or our license server, or access accounts that aren't yours;
• use the service in breach of the law, including export-control and sanctions laws.

8. Your designs and data

Your designs are yours. CircuitMCP runs on your machine and we don't receive your design files or project contents. Our privacy policy explains the account and license data we do process. If you send us feedback or suggestions, we may use them without obligation to you.

9. Third-party software and services

CircuitMCP works with software and services we don't control, including Altium Designer, your AI client and your LLM provider. Your use of them is governed by their own terms, and you need your own licenses and subscriptions for them. What your AI client sends to your LLM provider is between you and that provider. Altium, Autodesk, KiCad and OrCAD are trademarks of their respective owners; CircuitMCP is not affiliated with or endorsed by them.

10. Changes to the service

We improve CircuitMCP continually and may add, change or remove features. Features marked beta are provided as they are and may change or end.

11. Disclaimer

THE WEBSITE AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. CircuitMCP and AI assistants can make mistakes: review every change before fabrication, assembly or production, and keep backups of your designs.

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA OR DESIGN WORK, OR THE COST OF SCRAPPED OR REWORKED HARDWARE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM. Some jurisdictions don't allow these limits, so some may not apply to you.

13. Ending these terms

You can close your account at any time by asking us; we cancel any subscription first. We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms, after notice where reasonable. Sections 8, 11, 12 and 14 continue after these terms end.

14. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma, United States of America, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. If you are a consumer, you also keep any protections the law where you live gives you.

15. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We will post the new version here with a new date, and email you about material changes at least 30 days before they apply to an existing subscription. Continuing to use the service after that means you accept them.
