What this site is

Pantone Colors is a free reference tool for Pantone color codes and their digital approximations, plus related converters, tools, and educational content. It is provided free of charge, with no registration, and with no warranty of any kind.

Not affiliated with Pantone

This site is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Pantone LLC. "Pantone," "PMS," "Pantone Matching System," and related names are trademarks of Pantone LLC. Similar disclaimers apply to RAL (RAL gGmbH), NCS (NCS Colour AB), Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and any other brand mentioned on the site. All third-party trademarks belong to their respective owners.

Color accuracy

All color values on this site are approximations for design reference. HEX, RGB, CMYK, HSL, HSV, and LAB values are computed from digital approximations of physical Pantone inks and are not authoritative. Print colors depend on paper, ink, press, and lighting conditions. For production work, always verify colors against physical Pantone chips or measure with a spectrophotometer before committing to print.

The site does not warrant that any color value displayed on-screen matches any physical Pantone swatch. The site does not warrant that any color match between Pantone, RAL, NCS, paint brands, or any other system is authoritative.

Acceptable use

You may use the site for any lawful purpose, including commercial design work, without attribution. You may not:

• Attempt to disrupt or overload the site (for example, with automated scraping at rates that degrade performance for others)
• Use the site to build a competing service by mass-copying its content and presenting it as your own work
• Remove or alter any copyright or trademark notices
• Use the site in any way that violates applicable law

Limited automated access is fine for search engines, accessibility checkers, and reasonable personal use (for example, checking a few dozen colors programmatically). Bulk scraping at high volume is not permitted.

No warranty

The site is provided "as is" and "as available," with no warranty of any kind, whether express or implied. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any color value will be accurate for any specific purpose.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Pantone Colors and its operators shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site. This includes, without limitation, damages for loss of business, loss of revenue, or loss of data, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
