Affiliate Disclosure

We clearly disclose our affiliate relationships where applicable. Affiliate commissions help us maintain and improve Wage Atlas while keeping core features free for users.

Data Accuracy & Completeness

While we strive for accuracy, salary data is provided "as is" and may not reflect current market conditions. Data is compiled from various sources and may be outdated, incomplete, or contain errors. We make no guarantees regarding the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any data, information, or content provided through the Service. All data should be used for informational purposes only and should not be the sole basis for making financial, career, or business decisions.

Service Availability

We aim to provide uninterrupted service but cannot guarantee 100% uptime. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of our services with or without notice. We do not warrant that the Service will meet your requirements or that the operation of the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free.

No Professional Advice

Maximum Liability Cap

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Summit Lane Digital, LLC's total liability to you for all claims arising from or related to the use of the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid to Summit Lane Digital, LLC in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to such liability, or one hundred dollars ($100), whichever is greater.

Scope of Limitations

These limitations apply regardless of the legal theory on which the claim is based, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or otherwise, and even if Summit Lane Digital, LLC has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you.

No Liability for Third-Party Content

Wage Atlas shall not be liable for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in data obtained from third-party sources, including but not limited to government databases, or for any decisions made based on such data.

Cooperation in Defense

You agree to cooperate fully in the defense of any claim for which indemnification is sought. Wage Atlas reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you.

Survival

Your indemnification obligations will survive the termination of these Terms and your use of the Service.
