Terms of use

Effective 13 November 2026.

Guitar Pal (guitarpal.sloanwan.com, its MCP connector at /api/mcp, and the pages they open) is a free practice tool run by one person, Sloan Wan. By using it you agree to these terms. Questions: nysuswan@gmail.com.

Using Guitar Pal

  • You can use the site with or without an account. Keep your password to yourself; you are responsible for what happens under your account.
  • Use it for what it is for: practising, writing and sharing guitar music.
  • Do not try to break, overload or get around the site's limits, scrape it in bulk, reach other people's data, or use it to send spam or harmful content.
  • The connector and the assistant have usage limits. They can change, and a request over a limit is refused.

What you put in

  • What you create or upload stays yours. You give Guitar Pal permission to store, process and show it only as needed to run the features you use: for example, to save your library, to play a pattern, or to send a book's pages to an AI model to read its exercises.
  • Only upload what you have the right to use. Books are for your own copies, for your own practice.
  • A share link is public to anyone who has it. Do not put anything in a shared pattern that you would not want others to see.

What Guitar Pal gives back

  • Patterns, tabs, readings of tab images and assistant answers are produced partly by AI models and by rules, and can be wrong: a note on the wrong string, a chord that does not fit. Check them against the original before you rely on them.
  • Playback is Guitar Pal's own sample engine replaying what was written.
  • Links made through the MCP connector expire after 30 days. Import what you want to keep.

Other services

Signing in, storage and some features run on third-party services (Supabase, DeepSeek, Anthropic). AI apps that use the MCP connector, such as Claude or ChatGPT, have their own terms, which govern your use of them. See the privacy policy for what each receives.

No warranty

Guitar Pal is provided free, as is and as available. It may change, pause or stop at any time, and features may be added or removed. To the extent the law allows, Sloan Wan is not liable for any loss arising from using the site, including lost data; keep your own copy of anything important.

Ending

You can stop using Guitar Pal and delete your account at any time in Settings. Access may be suspended or ended for anyone who breaks these terms.

Changes

If these terms change, the new version is posted here with a new date. Using the site after that means you accept the new terms.
