To use certain features of the Site, you may need to register for an account and provide accurate, complete, and up-to-date information. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for activities conducted through your account, except where caused by PCBWay’s own fault or system security failure.
You must promptly notify PCBWay of any unauthorized or suspected unauthorized use of your account. PCBWay may suspend, restrict, or terminate your account in accordance with these Terms, including where we reasonably believe there is a breach of these Terms, inaccurate information, security risk, legal risk, compliance risk, or other legitimate business reason.
You may delete your account at any time, subject to outstanding orders, payment obligations, legal retention requirements, quality assurance records, dispute resolution, compliance obligations, and legitimate business record-keeping purposes.

SECTION 3 - ORDERS, QUOTATIONS, AND CUSTOMER FILES

PCBWay provides custom manufacturing and related services based on the information, files, drawings, specifications, and order details submitted by you. You are responsible for ensuring that all files, data, specifications, quantities, materials, finishes, tolerances, delivery addresses, billing information, and other order details are accurate, complete, and suitable for the intended purpose.
PCBWay may use its affiliates, group entities, qualified manufacturing partners, suppliers, service providers, or contractors solely as necessary to review, manufacture, assemble, inspect, package, ship, or otherwise fulfill customer orders. Any such parties may access Customer Data only to the extent necessary for the relevant order and are required to process such information under confidentiality, data protection, and order-specific use restrictions. They are prohibited from using Customer Data, product images, finished parts, designs, drawings, or order-related information for advertising, reverse engineering, reproduction, resale, customer reference, or any purpose unrelated to the fulfillment of the relevant order.
Online quotations are based on the information submitted by you and are subject to engineering review, file verification, manufacturing feasibility, material availability, compliance review, and final order confirmation by PCBWay. PCBWay may adjust the quotation, request additional information, or cancel an order if the submitted files or specifications do not match the information entered, are incomplete, are technically infeasible, or create legal, compliance, or manufacturing risks.
If an order is cancelled after payment due to PCBWay’s inability to process or accept the order, PCBWay will refund the applicable amount through the original payment method where reasonably possible.

SECTION 4 - TRADE COMPLIANCE AND RESTRICTED PRODUCTS

You agree to comply with all applicable export control, sanctions, customs, anti-diversion, and trade compliance laws and regulations, including but not limited to the laws and regulations of China, the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United Nations, and other applicable jurisdictions.
You may not submit, upload, request, purchase, or use PCBWay’s services for any product, file, design, part, component, material, or end use that is illegal, prohibited, weapon-related, military-restricted, or subject to applicable export control or sanctions restrictions, including but not limited to items controlled under ITAR, EAR classifications beyond EAR99, EU Dual-Use regulations, or other applicable export control laws.
You represent and warrant that, to the best of your knowledge after reasonable due diligence, neither you, your affiliates, ultimate beneficial owners, directors, senior management, authorized representatives, nor the end users related to your order are subject to applicable sanctions, export control restrictions, or trade restrictions.
You further represent and warrant that the products, files, designs, components, materials, and services related to your order will not be sold, exported, re-exported, transferred, diverted, resold, leased, or otherwise supplied, directly or indirectly, to any restricted party, restricted destination, or restricted end use in violation of applicable laws or PCBWay’s compliance policies.

PCBWay may require end-user statements, end-use certificates, export control classification information, export licenses, sanctions screening information, or other compliance documents reasonably necessary for review. PCBWay may refuse, suspend, cancel, or terminate any order or service where we reasonably believe there is a legal, sanctions, export control, customs, or compliance risk, or where you fail to cooperate with reasonable compliance review requests.

PCBWay is committed to responsible sourcing and does not knowingly use conflict minerals, including gold (Au), tantalum (Ta), tungsten (W), cobalt (Co), tin (Sn), or other minerals sourced from conflict-affected areas or illegally controlled trade routes. We expect our suppliers to comply with applicable conflict minerals regulations and responsible sourcing standards, including the EICC/RBA Code of Conduct, and to source materials from environmentally and socially responsible suppliers, with priority given to recognized conflict-free smelters and refiners.

SECTION 5 - CUSTOMER DATA, INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, AND CONFIDENTIALITY

Your submission of personal information through PCBWay is governed by our Privacy Policy. Ownership of any files, data, drawings, designs, specifications, or other materials uploaded or submitted by you remains with you or your licensors.

PCBWay may permit its affiliates, group entities, qualified manufacturing partners, suppliers, service providers, or contractors to access and process such Customer Data solely as necessary to fulfill the relevant order and only under confidentiality, data protection, and order-specific use restrictions.
Except for the limited order-fulfillment access described above, this license is non-transferable and non-sublicensable, and will automatically terminate upon completion of the related order, except where retention is required by law, regulation, quality assurance, dispute resolution, compliance, or legitimate business record-keeping purposes.

Product images, colors, descriptions, materials, and technical information displayed on the Site are provided for general reference. Actual results may vary depending on manufacturing processes, materials, finishes, tolerances, monitor display, and order specifications.
Returns, refunds, remakes, or exchanges are subject to PCBWay's Return Policy and applicable after-sales procedures.

SECTION 8 - PRICES, PAYMENT, AND SURCHARGES

Prices for PCBWay products and services may change from time to time. The price shown during online quotation is based on the information submitted by you and becomes binding only after PCBWay confirms the order and reviews the submitted files where applicable.
PCBWay may revise the price, request additional payment, or cancel the order if the submitted files, specifications, materials, quantities, delivery requirements, or other details differ from the information used for the quotation. Additional charges may apply, including but not limited to logistics fees, bank or payment processing fees, VAT, import duties, DTP service fees, customs clearance-related charges, remote area fees, storage fees, or other charges displayed at checkout or communicated during order processing.

SECTION 9 - SHIPPING, CUSTOMS, DUTIES, AND TAXES

Unless otherwise stated at checkout or confirmed by PCBWay in writing, customs duties, VAT, import taxes, brokerage fees, and other customs-related charges are not included in the product price or shipping cost and remain your responsibility.
If you select and pay for an available tax-inclusive or duty-paid service, such as IOSS, DTP, DDP, or another customs duty/VAT service shown at checkout, the covered taxes or duties will be handled according to the terms of that selected service. Charges or obligations not covered by the selected service remain your responsibility.
Customs duties, taxes, clearance requirements, and import rules may vary by destination country, product type, value, weight, declared information, and local customs policies. You are responsible for confirming applicable import requirements with your local customs authority where necessary.
PCBWay is not responsible for delays, inspections, seizures, penalties, storage fees, or additional charges caused by customs authorities, incomplete or inaccurate information provided by you, import restrictions, or circumstances beyond PCBWay’s reasonable control. Shipping terms, delivery timelines, risk transfer, and customs responsibilities may vary depending on the selected logistics method and applicable Incoterms or shipping service terms.

SECTION 10 - DELIVERY CONFIRMATION AND AFTER-SALES CLAIMS

After PCBWay ships an order, you are responsible for monitoring delivery and confirming receipt within the applicable confirmation period. Unless otherwise stated, the automatic receipt confirmation period is generally 30 days from shipment for express logistics methods such as DHL, FedEx, UPS, SF, OCS, or USPS, and generally 60 days from shipment for postal, standard, air freight, sea freight, or other logistics methods.
If you do not confirm receipt or submit a valid after-sales claim within the applicable period, the order may be automatically marked as received and completed.
