Terms of Use
Last updated: August 2, 2026
These Terms of Use (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of The Money Horizon (https://themoneyhorizon.com), including all calculators, content, and tools made available on it (together, the "Site"). By accessing or using the Site you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.
The single most important term: nothing on this Site is financial advice. The calculators are educational tools that produce simplified, hypothetical estimates from numbers you enter. Never make a financial decision based on this Site alone.
1. Educational purpose only
The Site provides interactive calculators and explanatory content for general informational and educational purposes only. It exists to help you explore how financial concepts such as loans, rent, and investment growth behave under different assumptions. It is not designed for, and must not be used as, a basis for actual financial decisions or transactions.
2. No financial, investment, tax, or legal advice
Nothing on the Site constitutes, or is intended to constitute, financial advice, investment advice, tax advice, accounting advice, legal advice, or any other form of professional or regulated advice, and nothing on the Site should be relied upon as such.
The operator of the Site is not a financial adviser, broker, dealer, accountant, tax professional, or lawyer, and is not licensed or registered as such in any jurisdiction. Use of the Site does not create any advisory, fiduciary, client, or other professional relationship between you and the operator. Nothing on the Site is an offer, solicitation, or recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any financial product, security, or property, or to adopt any financial strategy.
Before making any financial decision, including but not limited to taking out a mortgage or other loan, buying or renting property, or making any investment, you must consult a qualified, licensed professional in your own jurisdiction who can consider your personal circumstances. Any decision you make, and any consequence of it, is yours alone.
3. Results are hypothetical estimates
All outputs of the calculators are hypothetical estimates generated from simplified mathematical models applied to the numbers you enter. They are not quotes, offers, valuations, forecasts, projections, or guarantees of any kind. Real-world outcomes depend on factors the calculators do not and cannot model, including lender-specific criteria, fees, taxes, insurance, market movements, inflation, and changes in law. Interest rates, tax rules, fees, and benefit systems differ between countries and change over time; default values on the Site are neutral illustrations, and it is your responsibility to replace them with values that are correct for your situation and jurisdiction. Past or assumed performance is not indicative of future results.
4. Your responsibility and no reliance
You use the Site at your own risk and on the understanding that you will independently verify any output before giving it any weight. You agree not to rely on the Site as the basis for any financial decision. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the operator disclaims all responsibility and liability for any action you take, or refrain from taking, in reliance on anything on the Site.
5. No warranties
The Site and everything on it are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including without limitation any warranties of accuracy, completeness, reliability, timeliness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Despite reasonable care, the Site may contain errors, omissions, or outdated information, and the calculators may produce incorrect results. The operator does not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, and may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Site at any time without notice.
6. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the operator of the Site shall not be liable for any loss or damage of any kind arising out of or in connection with your access to, use of, or reliance on the Site or its outputs, including without limitation any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, any financial or investment loss, loss of profits, loss of savings, loss of opportunity, or loss of data, even if advised of the possibility of such damages, and whether the claim is based on contract, tort (including negligence), statute, or any other legal theory.
The Site is provided free of charge. If, notwithstanding the above, liability is found to exist and cannot be excluded, then to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law the operator's total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Site shall not exceed one hundred (100) US dollars or the smallest amount permitted by applicable law, whichever is greater.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or liabilities, including liability that cannot lawfully be excluded (such as liability for fraud or for death or personal injury caused by negligence, where applicable). Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability, or affects any statutory consumer right, that cannot be excluded or limited under the law that applies to you. In such cases the above exclusions and limitations apply to the fullest extent permitted.
7. Indemnification
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the operator of the Site from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your use or misuse of the Site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or the rights of any third party.
8. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the Site in any way that violates applicable law or regulation;
- present the Site's outputs to others as professional or personalized financial advice;
- attempt to disrupt, overload, probe, or interfere with the Site or the infrastructure that serves it; or
- scrape, reproduce, or republish substantial parts of the Site for commercial purposes without permission.
9. Intellectual property
The Site, including its design, text, and code, is owned by the site operator or its licensors and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may use the calculators for your own personal, non-commercial purposes. No other right or license is granted to you by these Terms.
10. Third-party links and services
The Site links to third-party websites and services, such as the donation page on Buy Me a Coffee. These are provided for convenience only. The operator does not control, endorse, or assume any responsibility for third-party sites, their content, or their terms and privacy practices, and your use of them is at your own risk.
11. Worldwide use
The Site is available worldwide and is deliberately not tailored to the laws, tax systems, or financial regulations of any particular country. The operator makes no representation that the Site or its content is appropriate or lawful in any particular jurisdiction. You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the Site complies with the laws that apply to you.
12. Changes to these Terms
These Terms may be updated from time to time. The current version is always published on this page with its "Last updated" date. Changes take effect when posted, and your continued use of the Site after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
13. Severability and waiver
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. A failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of the right to enforce it later.
14. Contact
For any question about these Terms, you can reach the site operator through the support links in the site footer. For how the Site handles data, see the Privacy Policy.
