Nifty Utilities
Terms of use.
These terms describe the basis on which Nifty Utilities makes its tools available. By using this website you agree to them. They are written in plain language on purpose; there is no separate legalese version that says something different.
What the site provides
Nifty Utilities offers free utilities — calculators, file cleaners, document generators, and quizzes — that run in your web browser. No account is required and no payment is collected. You may use the tools for personal or commercial work.
Estimates, documents, and quizzes are not professional advice
The calculators produce estimates built from the figures you enter. The document generators produce general-purpose drafts. The quizzes are recreational and educational. None of this output is financial, tax, legal, medical, or other professional advice, and the IQ and personality quizzes are not clinical or psychometric instruments. Before relying on a result that matters — a filing deadline, a legal document, a large purchase decision — verify it with a qualified professional or an authoritative source.
No warranty
The tools are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and accuracy of results. We work to keep the tools correct and available, but we do not guarantee that they are error-free or uninterrupted. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Nifty Utilities and its operator are not liable for any damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, this website or its output.
Your data
Tool inputs are processed in your browser and are not transmitted to us; the details are on the privacy page. Because processing is local, you are responsible for keeping copies of anything you generate — we have no copy to recover for you.
Acceptable use
Don't use the site to break the law, don't attempt to disrupt or overload it, and don't scrape it in a way that degrades it for others. Automated access that respects robots.txt is fine.
Content and ownership
The site's design, articles, and code that delivers the tools belong to Nifty Utilities. Everything you create with the tools — the documents, cleaned files, and results built from your own inputs — is yours.
Third-party services
Pages may load open-source libraries from public CDNs so tools can run locally, and the site uses Google services for analytics and advertising as described in the privacy policy. Those services operate under their own terms.
Changes
Tools are added and revised regularly, and these terms may be updated as the site evolves. The date stamp in this page's metadata reflects the last revision. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.
