1. Educational Nature of Services (Core Legal Boundary)

2. Calculation Accuracy & Formula Maintenance

We invest substantial engineering and editorial effort to ensure our formulas align with official federal institutions, including the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), and standard financial industry practices.

However, tax brackets, contribution ceilings, interest rate benchmarks, and insurance rates change frequently across jurisdictions. While we continuously maintain and update our calculation engines, Smart Calc makes no representation or warranty regarding the absolute completeness, precision, or real-time applicability of any particular calculation result.

• Prohibited Actions: You may not use automated bots, web scrapers, or crawlers to extract our calculation scripts, republish or frame our interactive tools on third-party domains behind paywalls, reverse-engineer our client-side software, or present our proprietary content as your own commercial product.
