For important limitations relating to tool results and educational content, please also read our Disclaimer.

2. Eligibility and Use of the Site
PitchDetector.com is a general-audience music and educational website.
You may use the site only if your use is lawful and you have the legal capacity required to agree to these Terms under the laws applicable to you.
Where a younger user is not legally able to agree to these Terms independently, use of the site should occur with appropriate involvement or supervision from a parent or legal guardian.
Nothing on PitchDetector.com is intended to encourage children or other users to submit unnecessary personal information.
Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy.
3. Permitted Use
You may use PitchDetector.com for lawful purposes such as:
- personal music practice;
- educational use;
- teaching and learning;
- instrument tuning;
- pitch and frequency reference;
- audio experimentation;
- general research and reference;
- evaluating tools before deciding whether they are suitable for your needs.
You may also share ordinary links to publicly available PitchDetector.com pages.
Unless we expressly state otherwise, use of the site does not transfer ownership of our website content, software, branding, or other protected material to you.
4. Prohibited Use
You may not use PitchDetector.com to:
- violate applicable law;
- attempt unauthorized access to the website, servers, accounts, or infrastructure;
- interfere with the normal operation or security of the site;
- distribute malware, malicious code, or harmful automated requests;
- deliberately overload or disrupt our services;
- bypass technical or security controls;

- use automated extraction in a manner that materially harms the site or its infrastructure;
- abuse our contact, correction, support, or feedback systems;
- use the site to infringe the rights of others.
Nothing in these Terms is intended to prohibit ordinary linking, legitimate search-engine indexing, accessibility technology, or other lawful uses that do not interfere with the website or violate applicable rights.
5. Tools, Calculations, and Audio Results
PitchDetector.com provides tools that may generate information such as:
- detected musical note;
- pitch;
- frequency in hertz;
- cents deviation;
- tuning feedback;
- tempo;
- vocal-range information;
- pitch-accuracy information;
- music-theory calculations.
Different tools produce results in different ways.
Formula-Based Tools
Some tools apply defined mathematical formulas to values entered by the user.
The output of these tools depends on:
- the input provided;
- the formula used;
- the assumptions or tuning reference applied.
A mathematically correct calculation does not guarantee that the value entered by a user accurately represents a real-world sound or measurement.
Audio-Analysis Tools
Microphone and audio-file tools estimate characteristics from incoming audio.
Results may be affected by factors such as:
- microphone quality;
- background noise;
- room acoustics;
- clipping;
- weak input;
- vibrato;
- harmonics;
- chords;
- overlapping sounds;
- browser behavior;
- device processing;
- operating-system audio settings.
Pitch and audio-analysis results should therefore be interpreted as estimates rather than guaranteed measurements.
Our Methodology explains how pitch-related analysis works, while our Disclaimer explains important limitations.
6. No Professional Relationship
Using PitchDetector.com does not create a professional relationship between you and PitchDetector.com or its contributors.
In particular, use of the site does not create a:
- doctor-patient relationship;
- therapist-patient relationship;
- professional vocal-coaching relationship;
- engineering-client relationship;
- legal or financial advisory relationship.
The site is designed for general music, educational, practice, and informational purposes.
If you need medical, professional, scientific, engineering, legal, or other specialized advice, consult an appropriately qualified professional.
7. Vocal and Hearing Safety
Singing-related tools and educational resources should be used responsibly.
Do not force your voice outside a comfortable range or continue exercises that cause pain or significant discomfort.
PitchDetector.com cannot diagnose vocal injuries, voice disorders, hearing problems, or other medical conditions.
Use reasonable playback levels when using headphones, speakers, reference tones, or repeated audio exercises.
For additional limitations related to singing, hearing, and health-related content, see our Disclaimer.
