PaycheckRights provides free informational and educational calculation engines. Nothing on this website constitutes legal counsel, certified public accounting (CPA) services, official tax filing assistance, or binding arbitration opinions.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using PaycheckRights.com (the "Website"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the Website.
2. Educational & Informational Purpose
The calculation engines, overtime estimates, tax bracket breakdowns, and statutory penalty references provided on PaycheckRights are designed for personal budgeting, paycheck verification, and wage awareness.
Payroll outcomes can vary substantially based on:
- Individual pre-tax benefits (401(k), Section 125 cafeteria plans, HSA/FSA contributions).
- Local municipal wage ordinances (e.g., City of San Francisco or New York City local tax rules).
- Specific exemptions under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) or state wage orders (e.g., executive, administrative, or outside sales exemptions).
- Voluntary wage garnishments, child support orders, or court-mandated withholdings.
Always cross-reference calculations against your official paystub, Form W-2, or Form 1099, and consult a licensed tax professional or labor attorney for formal disputes.
3. Official Sources & Data Accuracy
While PaycheckRights verifies tax rates against official IRS and state department publications (e.g., IRS Publication 15-T, California EDD DE 231, NYS-50-T), statutes and withholding regulations are subject to administrative amendments, legislative changes, and retroactive judicial interpretations. We make no warranty that all information is complete, current, or error-free at any given moment.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, PaycheckRights, its developers, and contributors shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages resulting from the use or inability to use this site, including but not limited to underwithholding tax penalties, payroll disputes, or legal filings.
