The information and tools provided by TipCalculator-Free.com (the "Site") are for general informational and educational purposes only. By using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Disclaimer.

1. Estimates Only

Our calculators produce estimates based on the numbers you enter and on general assumptions. Where the Site shows a default sales-tax rate, it is an estimated state-level average provided for reference only. Your actual sales tax may differ, because it can include county, city, or special-district taxes and depends on the location, the type of goods or services, and the point in time. When you enter your own rate, or the amount printed on your receipt, the calculation uses that figure instead. When calculating an actual payment, always compare the result with the figures on your receipt before you pay.

2. Not Professional Advice

Nothing on this Site constitutes financial, tax, legal, accounting, or other professional advice. Tipping is a matter of personal choice and local custom; there is no single authority that dictates the "correct" amount. For decisions with financial or legal consequences, consult a qualified professional.

3. No Guarantee of Accuracy

While we make reasonable efforts to keep the calculators and content accurate and up to date, we make no representation or warranty of any kind regarding the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or suitability of the information and tools. Any reliance you place on them is strictly at your own risk.

4. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, our liability arising from or relating to the Site or its calculators — including any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in a result — is excluded or limited as described in the Limitation of Liability section of our Terms of Service. Nothing in this Disclaimer or those Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

5. External Links and Advertising

The Site may include advertisements and links to external websites that are not operated by us. We have no control over the content or reliability of those sites and are not responsible for them. The inclusion of any link or advertisement does not imply endorsement.

6. Third-Party References

Any references to third-party publications, institutes, or guidelines (such as etiquette guides or tax authorities) are provided for context only. Those sources are owned by their respective authors and do not endorse this Site.

7. Your Responsibility

You are solely responsible for verifying any figure before acting on it and for the amounts you ultimately choose to pay. Always check the bottom of your receipt for service charges or automatic gratuities before adding a tip.

8. Acknowledgement

By using this Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Disclaimer. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Site.
