Calculist Embed Service - Terms & Conditions
By implementing the Calculist embeddable code, you agree to these Embed Service Terms and Conditions.
These terms apply to all Calculist financial calculators, tools, and PDF generation engines embedded on third-party websites.
1. Scope of Agreement
By implementing the Calculist embeddable code (the "Service") on any website, you ("The Host") agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms and Conditions.
These terms govern the use of all Calculist financial calculators, tools, and PDF generation engines.
2. License Grant and Attribution
Calculist grants the Host a revocable, non-exclusive license to display the Service, provided the following conditions are met:
- Mandatory backlink: The Host must maintain the "Powered by Calculist" attribution link included in the snippet.
- Visual integrity: The attribution link must remain fully visible to users and search engine crawlers. You may not use CSS, JavaScript, or other techniques to hide, obscure, or alter the color/size to make it unreadable.
- SEO transparency: The link must remain a standard, followable HTML element. Any attempt to mask the link from search engine indexing is a breach of this license.
3. Monitoring and Enforcement (Guard Dot Policy)
To maintain Service integrity, Calculist employs active monitoring technology.
- Verification: Scripts verify the presence and visibility of the attribution link in real time.
- Automatic suspension: If the attribution link is removed, obscured, or modified, the Service automatically disables itself and renders a 1px "Guard Dot" in place of the tool.
- Self-correction: Restoration of the original, unmodified embed code will typically restore Service functionality.
4. Intellectual Property and PDF Usage
The Service generates high-fidelity financial reports and outputs.
- Ownership: All calculation logic, design, branding, and generated PDF assets remain the exclusive property of Calculist.net.
- No commercial resale: The Host may not charge end-users for access to the tool or its PDF downloads.
- No re-branding: The Host may not white-label the Service or represent the calculation logic as their own.
5. Right to Revoke and Block
Calculist reserves the right to terminate access to the Service for any reason, including misuse, attribution bypass attempts, or harmful traffic patterns.
- Misuse: Attempting to scrape data or automate bulk PDF downloads.
- Deception: Attempting to bypass attribution requirements.
- Discretionary blocking: Calculist may block any domain or IP address deemed harmful to brand, infrastructure, or business model without prior notice.
6. Service Modifications
Calculist is an evolving platform. We may update terms, adjust features, or change availability and resource policies over time.
- Update terms at any time.
- Modify or discontinue specific features, including PDF export quality or calculator modes.
- Move high-resource features to paid tiers in the future.
7. Disclaimer
The Service is provided "as is." Calculist is not responsible for financial decisions made using embedded tools.
Users should verify outputs with qualified financial professionals where appropriate.
