Disclaimer

Last updated: June 1, 2024

The short version

Everything on 1gb.icu is for general education and informational purposes only. It is not financial, legal, tax, immigration, insurance, or investment advice. Our calculators produce estimates, not guarantees. Always consult a qualified licensed professional before making decisions based on what you read here.

1. No Professional Advice

All content on 1gb.icu—including calculators, articles, guides, FAQs, glossaries, examples, and any other materials—is provided strictly for general informational and educational purposes. None of the content constitutes, and should not be relied upon as, professional advice of any kind, including but not limited to:

  • Financial advice — including investment, retirement, savings, debt management, and personal finance decisions
  • Legal advice — including contract, estate, business, and civil matters
  • Tax advice — including federal, state, and local tax planning, filing, and strategy
  • Immigration advice — including visa eligibility, citizenship, residency, and naturalization matters
  • Insurance advice — including life, auto, health, disability, and property coverage decisions
  • Real estate advice — including mortgage, refinance, property valuation, and investment decisions
  • Medical or health advice — including BMI, calorie, macro, and fitness decisions

You should consult with a qualified, licensed professional who can review your specific circumstances before making any decision based on information from this website. We are not a law firm, accounting firm, bank, lender, insurance broker, immigration attorney, registered investment advisor, or medical professional.

2. Calculator Accuracy and Limitations

Our calculators are designed to produce estimates based on the inputs you provide and standard assumptions. While we use publicly available formulas and methodologies from authoritative sources (such as IRS publications, Fannie Mae guidelines, HUD rules, USCIS requirements, and standard financial formulas), the following limitations apply:

  • Calculators do not account for every factor that may affect your actual situation
  • Tax laws, interest rates, immigration regulations, and insurance rules change frequently, and our calculators may not always reflect the most current rules
  • Calculator outputs depend entirely on the accuracy of the inputs you provide
  • Many calculators use simplified models that do not capture complex real-world scenarios
  • Calculator results should be viewed as a starting point for further research, not as definitive answers

We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any calculation performed using our tools.

3. No Guarantee of Outcomes

Using our calculators or following the information in our articles does not guarantee any specific outcome, including but not limited to:

  • Loan approval, mortgage qualification, or refinancing success
  • Visa approval, green card issuance, or citizenship naturalization
  • Insurance policy approval, premium quotes, or claim payments
  • Investment returns, retirement sufficiency, or debt elimination
  • Tax savings, audit avoidance, or IRS acceptance
  • Business profitability, valuation, or sale success
  • Health, fitness, or weight loss results

Actual outcomes depend on many factors beyond what our tools can model, including your individual circumstances, lender/insurer/employer/government policies, market conditions, and decisions made by third parties.

4. Third-Party Data Sources

Some of our calculators and articles reference or rely on data from third-party sources, including:

  • Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for tax brackets, deductions, and credits
  • U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) for visa and citizenship requirements
  • Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for mortgage qualification rules
  • Department of State for visa bulletin and diversity lottery information
  • Federal Reserve for interest rate data
  • State tax authorities for state and local tax rates
  • Insurance industry averages for premium and coverage benchmarks

While we strive to use the most current and accurate data from these sources, we do not control them and cannot guarantee their accuracy. Rules and rates published by these authorities change frequently—you should always verify current requirements directly with the relevant authority before relying on any information from our website.

5. Advertising Disclosure

1gb.icu displays advertisements served by Google AdSense and potentially other advertising networks. We earn revenue from these advertisements, which helps us keep our calculators and content free for users. The presence of an advertisement on our website does not constitute an endorsement of the advertised product or service, and we are not responsible for the content of advertisements or the practices of advertisers.

We do not currently accept paid sponsorships, affiliate commissions, or paid placements that affect our editorial content. If this changes, we will update this disclosure and clearly mark any sponsored or affiliate content.

6. External Links

Our website contains links to external websites, including government agencies, lenders, educational resources, and other third parties. These links are provided for your convenience and do not signify endorsement. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, privacy practices, or availability of external websites. Visiting any external link is at your own risk.

7. "Your Money, Your Life" (YMYL) Content Notice

Google classifies content that could impact a person's financial, physical, or emotional well-being as "Your Money, Your Life" (YMYL) content. Much of the content on 1gb.icu falls into this category. While we make every effort to provide accurate, well-researched, and clearly-explained information, YMYL content demands heightened scrutiny. We strongly encourage you to:

  • Cross-reference our information with primary sources (IRS.gov, USCIS.gov, ConsumerFinance.gov)
  • Seek second opinions from qualified professionals
  • Consider your own unique circumstances, which our general content cannot capture
  • Be especially cautious before making large financial commitments or significant legal decisions

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, 1gb.icu and its owners, operators, contributors, and affiliates disclaim all liability for any damages, losses, or injuries arising from your use of, or reliance on, our website, calculators, articles, or any content provided. This includes direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, and punitive damages. For the full limitation of liability, see Section 9 of our Terms of Service.

9. Use at Your Own Risk

You use 1gb.icu entirely at your own risk. We do not guarantee that our website will be available at all times, free of errors, or compatible with your device. We are not liable for any damage to your device, data, or business resulting from your use of our website.

10. Changes to This Disclaimer

We reserve the right to update or modify this Disclaimer at any time. Changes take effect when we publish the updated version on this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
