Terms and Conditions

Last updated: June 2026

These Terms and Conditions govern your access to and use of BPMKeyFinder.com and all tools, articles, and content provided on this website. BPMKeyFinder.com is operated by Charlotte Hayes (contact available via the Contact page).

By accessing or using BPMKeyFinder.com, you agree to these Terms and Conditions in full. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the website.

1. Purpose of the Website

BPMKeyFinder.com is an independent educational website providing a free browser-based audio analysis tool and educational content about BPM detection, musical key detection, the Camelot Wheel, and harmonic mixing.

The website is intended for educational use, music production reference, and DJ preparation. It is not designed to replace professional audio analysis services, certified music metadata services, or expert musical judgment.

More information about the site’s purpose is on the About page.

2. Audio File Uploads

The BPM Key Finder tool analyses audio files you upload. By uploading files to BPMKeyFinder.com, you acknowledge that:

Your uploaded file is read from your device’s local storage by the browser’s FileReader API
All audio decoding and analysis occurs locally within your browser — no audio data is transmitted to any server
Your uploaded file and its decoded audio data are never received, stored, or retained by BPMKeyFinder.com
The decoded audio data is cleared from browser memory when you navigate away from the tool or close the tab
You are responsible for ensuring you have the right to upload and analyse any file you submit to the tool

BPMKeyFinder.com is not responsible for any claims arising from your upload of files to which you do not hold the necessary rights.

Full details of audio file handling are in the Privacy Policy and Data Security pages.

3. Analysis Accuracy and Limitations

The BPM and key detection results returned by this tool are estimates produced by algorithmic analysis — not certified measurements or guaranteed accurate results. By using the tool, you acknowledge that:

BPM detection is typically accurate to ±1 BPM for music with clear rhythmic structure but may return half-time or double-time values for music with ambiguous rhythmic interpretation
Key detection accuracy is typically above 80% on popular music genres — approximately 1 in 5 results may be incorrect
Tracks with key changes, modal content, or very short duration may produce less reliable key detection results
Results should be verified by ear before use in critical professional applications such as live DJ performance or commercial production

Full accuracy documentation is in the Disclaimer and How It Works pages.

BPMKeyFinder.com does not provide:

Professional DJ performance, mixing, or music production services
Certified audio analysis or official music metadata services
