We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to modify or amend these Terms at any time by posting a revised version on this page. Any such modification shall be effective immediately upon posting.

The Site is an informational and educational resource that provides estimates of the after-tax value of lottery prizes derived from publicly available information. The Site does not, and shall not be construed to, sell lottery tickets, accept wagers, conduct or operate any game of chance, hold, collect, or distribute funds, verify ticket ownership, predict winning numbers, or claim, administer, or process any prize.

All content made available through the Site, including without limitation calculator results, estimates, articles, and paid reports (collectively, “Content”), is provided for general informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute, and shall not be relied upon as, tax, legal, financial, investment, accounting, or other professional advice. No attorney-client, accountant-client, fiduciary, advisory, or other professional relationship is created by your access to or use of the Site. Actual tax consequences depend upon individual facts and circumstances that the Site does not and cannot take into account.

You should consult a qualified and duly licensed professional before making any decision or taking any action in reliance upon any Content. You expressly acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for any decision made, or action taken or omitted, in reliance upon the Content.

Although we endeavor to maintain the accuracy of the Content, tax laws and rates are subject to change, prize amounts fluctuate, and information obtained from third parties may be incomplete, delayed, or erroneous. We make no representation or warranty that any figure, rate, calculation, or other Content is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free, and we undertake no obligation to update, correct, or supplement any Content. Our sources are described on our methodology page for informational purposes only.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Site, the Content, and all paid products are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, with all faults, and without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise. We expressly disclaim any and all warranties, including without limitation any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, quiet enjoyment, and any warranties arising out of course of dealing, course of performance, or usage of trade. Without limiting the foregoing, we do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that the Site is free of viruses or other harmful components.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall The Lottery Math, its owner, operators, affiliates, licensors, or service providers be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, savings, data, use, or goodwill, or for any cost of procurement of substitute goods or services, arising out of or in connection with these Terms or your access to, use of, inability to use, or reliance upon the Site or any Content, whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, warranty, statute, or any other legal theory, and whether or not we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

The foregoing limitations shall apply notwithstanding the failure of the essential purpose of any limited remedy. Certain jurisdictions do not permit the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or damages; accordingly, some of the foregoing limitations may not apply to you, in which case our liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
