  1. Not medical advice

The Tinnitus Project is not a medical service.

The information, tools, sound tests, tone-matching features, tinnitus-related content, listening suggestions, and sound sessions provided on this website are for general information, self-guided sound exploration, relaxation, coping support, and wellbeing purposes only.

Nothing on this website is medical advice.

Nothing on this website is intended to diagnose, treat, cure, prevent, or medically manage tinnitus, hearing loss, anxiety, sleep problems, or any other health condition.

You should not use this website as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

If you have concerns about tinnitus, hearing, ear symptoms, mental health, sleep, medication, or any medical condition, you should speak to a qualified healthcare professional.

  1. No medical diagnosis

Any tone match, tinnitus frequency result, hearing-related result, sound preference, or saved session is not a medical diagnosis.

The tools on this website may help you explore sounds that seem similar to, different from, or more comfortable alongside your tinnitus experience, but they do not measure, diagnose, or clinically assess tinnitus or hearing health.

Results may be affected by your headphones, speakers, device, browser, volume settings, environment, attention, hearing ability, and personal perception.

  1. No guaranteed results

The Tinnitus Project does not guarantee that any tool, sound, session, frequency, article, technique, or recommendation will reduce tinnitus, improve hearing, improve sleep, reduce distress, or produce any specific outcome.

Some people may find sound-based tools helpful.

Some people may notice no effect.

Some people may find certain sounds uncomfortable.

You are responsible for deciding whether a tool or sound feels appropriate for you.

  1. Sound safety

Use all sounds at a comfortable volume.

Do not listen at loud, painful, sharp, piercing, or uncomfortable levels.

Stop immediately if you experience discomfort, pain, dizziness, pressure, nausea, anxiety, distress, worsening symptoms, or any other unwanted effect.

Do not use this website while driving, cycling, operating machinery, crossing roads, or doing anything that requires full attention.

Use headphones carefully and responsibly.

  1. When to seek medical help

You should seek medical advice promptly if you experience:

  • sudden hearing loss
  • tinnitus in one ear only
  • pulsatile tinnitus
  • tinnitus after a head injury or ear injury
  • ear pain, pressure, discharge, or infection symptoms
  • dizziness, vertigo, or balance problems
  • facial weakness or numbness
  • new neurological symptoms
  • severe anxiety, panic, depression, or distress related to tinnitus
  • any symptom that worries you

If tinnitus or distress is causing thoughts of self-harm, suicide, or feeling unsafe, seek urgent help from emergency services, a crisis line, or a qualified healthcare professional immediately.

  1. Health-related information

If you choose to save tinnitus-related results, tone matches, ear-side selections, hearing-test responses, sound preferences, or session settings, this information may relate to your hearing or tinnitus experience.

When linked to your account, email address, order, session, or other identifying information, this may be treated as health-related personal data.
