Terms of Use

Last updated · PaycheckClear editorial team

Acceptance

By using PaycheckClear, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site. The terms apply to the calculators, the explanatory pages, and any downloadable content.

Permitted use

You may use the calculators for personal, non-commercial purposes and may share links to the pages. You may not scrape the site at a volume that degrades service, resell the content as your own, remove attribution, or use the PaycheckClear name in a way that suggests endorsement.

Estimates, not advice

The calculators produce estimates for general information. They are not tax, legal, financial, or payroll advice and are not a substitute for your employer's payroll system or a licensed professional. This calculator provides an estimate for general informational purposes only. It is not tax, legal, or financial advice, and it is not a substitute for your employer's payroll system or a licensed tax professional. Actual withholding depends on the W-4 you filed, your employer's payroll settings, pre-tax elections, and changes in federal or state law. Tax rules change — verify figures with the IRS and your state tax authority before making decisions. PaycheckClear is not affiliated with the IRS, the Social Security Administration, or any state government.

No warranty

The site is provided “as is” and “as available.” We work to keep rates current and sourced, but we do not warrant that every figure is complete, error-free, or suitable for a particular purpose. Tax law changes, and employer payroll settings vary.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, PaycheckClear and its contributors are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of the site, including decisions made from an estimate. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

Changes

We may update these terms as the site changes. The revised version takes effect when it is posted, and the “Last updated” date at the top of the page will change. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised terms.
