Terms of Service

Last updated: April 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Keyboard Tester website and all tools available on it, including the keyboard tester, typing speed test, and key code finder ("Services"). By accessing or using the website, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you should not use the website.

Description of Services

Keyboard Tester is a browser-based suite of tools designed to help users test keyboard functionality, measure typing speed, and look up JavaScript key event codes. The keyboard tester detects and visualizes key presses in real time on a virtual keyboard layout. The typing speed test measures words per minute, accuracy, and errors across multiple difficulty levels and durations. The key code finder displays JavaScript event properties for any key pressed.

All tools run entirely within your web browser using client-side JavaScript. No software installation, browser extension, account creation, or personal information is required to use any of the Services. The tools are provided as-is for personal, educational, and professional use.

Third-party trademarks, product names, and brand names mentioned on this site (such as Windows, Mac, MacBook, Chromebook, QMK, VIA, Logitech, Razer, Corsair, and others) are the property of their respective owners.

Disclaimer of Warranties

Keyboard Tester is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of viruses or other harmful components. We do not warrant that the results obtained from using the tools will be accurate or reliable in every scenario.

While we make every effort to ensure that the keyboard tester accurately detects key presses, certain keys (such as Fn, Print Screen, and media keys) are handled by the operating system before they reach the browser, and their detection depends on your specific device, browser, and operating system configuration. We are not responsible for limitations imposed by browsers, operating systems, or hardware that affect the tool's ability to detect specific keys.

You acknowledge that you use the website and its tools at your own discretion and risk. Any decisions you make based on the results of the keyboard tester, typing test, or key code finder, including decisions about purchasing, returning, repairing, or replacing a keyboard, are your own responsibility.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Keyboard Tester, its owner, developers, and affiliates shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from or related to your use of, or inability to use, the website or any of its tools. This includes, without limitation, damages for loss of data, loss of profits, business interruption, or any other commercial or personal damages or losses, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

This limitation of liability applies whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a remedy set forth herein is found to be insufficient in its essential purpose.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you in full. In such cases, our liability will be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.
