Last Updated: January 15, 2026 · Effective Date: January 1, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using TrumpetFingeringCharts.com ("the Website"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms") and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please discontinue use of the Website.

2. Educational Purpose & Permitted Use

The Website provides free educational brass reference charts, interactive fingering matrices, metronome tools, tuning reference drones, and music pedagogical guides for student musicians, band directors, and educators.

You are granted a non-exclusive, revocable, non-transferable license to access and use the Website solely for personal, non-commercial, and classroom educational purposes.

3. Printable PDF Licensing for Educators & Students

We actively support music educators, school band programs, and brass studios:

Classroom & Rehearsal Distribution:

  • Permitted: Band directors and private music instructors are fully permitted and encouraged to download, photocopy, print, and distribute our printable PDF fingering charts and scale sheets to students free of charge for rehearsals and lessons.
  • Prohibited: You may not sell our printable PDFs, repackage them as paid digital downloads, bundle them into commercial products, or host them on external file-sharing paywalls without prior written permission from TrumpetFingeringCharts.com.

4. Intellectual Property Rights

All original pedagogical text, website code, custom SVG valve graphics, audio synthesis algorithms, interactive tools, and layout designs are the proprietary property of TrumpetFingeringCharts.com and are protected by applicable copyright, trademark, and intellectual property laws.

Standard musical notation conventions, the acoustic harmonic series, and historical brass fingerings (such as those codified in public-domain treatises by Jean-Baptiste Arban and Herbert L. Clarke) are universal musical concepts.

5. User Conduct & Acceptable Use

When using TrumpetFingeringCharts.com, you agree NOT to:

  • Engage in systematic scraping, automated data mining, or programmatic harvesting of website assets that causes excessive server load.
  • Attempt to bypass, disable, or interfere with security features or advertising integrations.
  • Use the Website in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair our infrastructure.

6. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Website and all educational resources are provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied.

While our pedagogical team verifies all valve fingerings, pitch frequencies, and transpositions against standard conservatory brass practice, individual instrument acoustic variances (such as instrument make, mouthpiece bore, valve alignment, and embouchure development) can affect intonation. We make no warranty that the interactive audio drones or tuning references will substitute for personalized instruction with a professional brass instructor.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, TrumpetFingeringCharts.com, its contributors, and developers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of your access to or inability to use the Website.

8. Modifications to Terms

We reserve the right to amend these Terms at any time. When modifications are made, the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will be revised. Your continued use of the Website after any amendments signifies your agreement to the revised Terms.
