The GPL has restrictions about "derived work". Anything that you do with Kicad is "made with" kicad, so it has no restrictions.
BUT.. there is a catch!!! Your schematics and board contains parts of the library and modules, and thus are "derived work" of those. You have to beware of these licences :( BUT... again The GPL restriction is only for *distribution*, so if you do not distribute (not even to a subsidiary) the restriction does not apply. As an exaple, GCC has a different licence for the compiler and for the library. There are even compatible libraries with different licences...
