Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of terms

By visiting or using https://taxcalfreelancer.com ("the Site"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

2. Description of service

Freelancer Tax Calculator is a free web-based tool that estimates US freelance net income after marketplace platform fees, federal income tax, state income tax, and optional self-employment tax. The Site uses projected 2026 tax bracket data for educational and planning purposes.

3. Not professional advice

The Site does not provide tax, legal, accounting, or financial advice. Results are general estimates based on simplified assumptions and publicly available tax rate information. Your actual tax liability depends on many factors this calculator cannot account for, including but not limited to:

• Itemized deductions, credits, and adjustments
• Multiple income sources, W-2 wages, and business expenses
• Quarterly estimated payment history and safe-harbor rules
• Local, city, or county taxes
• Changes in tax law after our data was last updated
• Your specific Upwork or Fiverr fee tier and contract terms

Always consult a licensed CPA, enrolled agent, or qualified tax professional before making filing decisions.

4. Accuracy and limitations

We strive to keep tax data current, but we make no warranty that calculations are accurate, complete, or suitable for your situation. Platform fee rates shown are simplified averages or common rates — your actual marketplace fees may differ. State tax models cover a limited set of states and may not reflect every exemption or surcharge.

You use the calculator and any results at your own risk. We are not responsible for decisions you make based on Site output.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Site in any way that violates applicable laws or regulations
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems or interfere with Site operation
• Scrape, copy, or redistribute substantial portions of the Site without permission
• Misrepresent Site results as official IRS or state tax guidance

6. Intellectual property

The Site's design, text, code, charts, and branding are owned by Freelancer Tax Calculator or its licensors. You may link to the Site and share results for personal, non-commercial use. You may not reproduce or create derivative works from the Site for commercial purposes without written consent.

7. Third-party links and ads

The Site may contain links to third-party websites or display third-party advertisements. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or policies of those third parties. Any dealings with advertisers or external sites are solely between you and the third party.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SITE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

9. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, FREELANCER TAX CALCULATOR AND ITS OPERATORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SITE — EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

10. Changes to the service and terms

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Site at any time. We may also update these Terms. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

11. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which the Site operator is established, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of that jurisdiction, except where prohibited by law.
