Know before usingA foundational library, not yet an exhaustive stitch encyclopedia.The interface and plan description do not prove tester reach, completion, feedback quality, fit validity, export quality, uptime, support, or suitability for an established release process. Measurements and photos can be sensitive personal data. Run a non-critical pilot, review the current privacy and service terms, define consent and photo rights, test exports and deletion, and keep pattern approval and release responsibility with the designer.The workflow is not a contract or quality certification; local legal duties and technical review may still apply.
