The website provides general-purpose calculators and estimates. Results are not professional advice, official rates, price guarantees, tax determinations, or promises of real-world vehicle performance.
1. Acceptance of these Terms
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of fuel-cost-calculator.com and its calculators, content, links, and related features (collectively, the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2. The Service
The Service provides general informational tools for estimating fuel use, electricity use, trip costs, commute costs, passenger shares, and vehicle-cost comparisons. Features may be added, modified, limited, suspended, or removed at any time.
3. Estimates and no professional advice
Calculator results depend on the information you enter and assumptions built into the selected formula. Actual prices and consumption can differ because of traffic, route, speed, weather, elevation, cargo, vehicle condition, energy losses, taxes, fees, and other factors.
The Service is not legal, tax, accounting, investment, insurance, engineering, automotive, or other professional advice. Verify important decisions, official mileage rates, reimbursement rules, tax treatment, vehicle specifications, and costs with appropriate official sources or qualified professionals.
4. Your responsibilities
- Provide reasonable and lawful inputs and independently review important results.
- Do not rely on the Service where an error could cause injury, unsafe driving, missed fuel or charging stops, legal noncompliance, or significant financial loss.
- Do not submit passwords, payment-card data, government identifiers, health records, or other highly sensitive information through email or URL parameters.
- Comply with applicable laws and the rights of other people.
5. Acceptable use
You may not misuse the Service, attempt unauthorized access, interfere with operation, introduce malicious code, scrape or overload the website in a way that harms availability, circumvent security controls, impersonate others, use the Service for unlawful activity, or reproduce substantial portions of the website in a misleading or competing service without permission.
6. Intellectual property
The website design, original text, calculator interfaces, branding, graphics, and original source code are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. You may use calculator results for personal or business planning. These Terms do not transfer ownership of the Service or grant permission to remove notices, copy the website wholesale, or present our content as your own.
7. Messages and feedback
You retain ownership of information you send to us. You grant us permission to use feedback, suggestions, and error reports to operate and improve the Service, provided we do not publicly identify you without permission. Do not send content you do not have the right to share.
8. Third-party services and links
The Service may use or link to analytics providers, hosting providers, government resources, maps, charging networks, advertisers, affiliates, or other third parties. We do not control their availability, content, prices, privacy practices, or terms. A link does not necessarily mean endorsement.
9. Availability and changes
We aim to keep the Service useful and available, but do not guarantee uninterrupted access, compatibility with every device, preservation of shared URLs, or continued availability of a particular calculator or feature. Maintenance, errors, security events, provider outages, or changes may interrupt service.
10. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, availability, or error-free operation. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
11. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Fuel Cost Calculator and its operator will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, lost profits, lost savings, lost data, vehicle costs, travel disruption, or decisions made using the Service. Where liability cannot be excluded, it will be limited to the amount you paid to use the Service during the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim; because the Service is generally free, that amount may be zero. Mandatory consumer rights remain unaffected.
12. Indemnity
Where permitted by law, you agree to be responsible for claims, losses, or expenses arising from your unlawful misuse of the Service, violation of these Terms, or infringement of another person's rights.
13. Suspension or termination
We may restrict or terminate access when reasonably necessary to protect the Service, users, providers, or legal rights, or when these Terms are materially violated.
14. Applicable law and disputes
Applicable law and mandatory consumer protections depend on the circumstances, including the location of the website operator and the user. Before bringing a formal claim, you agree to contact us and make a reasonable effort to resolve the issue informally. Nothing in these Terms limits rights that cannot legally be waived.
15. Changes to these Terms
We may revise these Terms to reflect changes to the Service, providers, risks, or legal requirements. Updated Terms apply from the date posted, unless applicable law requires another form of notice or consent.
