Bandalong

Terms of use

The short version: enjoy the band, use the music you make, share songs freely. Please don't copy the app itself.

Effective 13 November 2026. Questions: [email protected]

What's ours

Bandalong, this website and the web app are © 2025–2026 Bandalong. All rights reserved. That covers the software, the way it composes and plays, its design and its name. Some of the instrument recordings come from other people under open licences; they're credited in the app (Settings, About and credits) and keep their own licences.

What you may do

• Use the web app here, free, for yourself, your students or your audience.
• Use the music. Recordings you save from Bandalong may be used in your own videos, streams, podcasts and music, including commercial ones. The app shows the two credits that are asked for.
• Share songs. Tape codes and links to songs are yours to make, send and publish anywhere. The tape codes page describes their format and invites you to build with it.
• Link to this site from anywhere.

What we ask you not to do

• Don't copy or re-host the app. Please don't put a copy of this website or the web app on another address, inside another site or app, or in an app store.
• Don't take it apart to reuse it. Please don't extract, adapt or redistribute the software or its composer, or remove the limits of the free version.
• Don't use the name Bandalong, or one easily confused with it, for something that isn't ours.

If you'd like to do something this doesn't cover, such as embedding the player or using the engine in your own project, write to us. We're open to it.

Your own songs

Songs you bring to Bandalong stay yours, and stay on your device (see the privacy policy). You're responsible for having the right to use the songs you add and to share what you make with them.

No promises we can't keep

Bandalong is provided as it is. We work hard on it, but we can't promise it will always be available or free of faults, and to the extent the law allows we aren't liable for loss arising from using it. Don't rely on it alone for a performance without a backup.

Changes

If these terms change, the new version will be posted here with a new date.
