Terms of Service

Last updated: July 2026

The short version: The Credit & Debt Ally is a free tool you may use for your own personal, non-commercial purposes. The calculators and guides are educational estimates, provided "as is," with no guarantees. By using the site, you agree to the terms below.

1. Acceptance of these terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of The Credit & Debt Ally (https://thecreditanddebtally.com), including all calculators, guides, and content on the site (collectively, the "Service"). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy and Disclaimer. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

2. Use license

We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial purposes, free of charge. Under this license you may not:

Sell, resell, sublicense, or commercially exploit the Service or its content
Copy, scrape, or systematically extract substantial portions of the site for republication
Modify, reverse-engineer, or create derivative works from the Service
Use the Service in any way that is unlawful, or that could disable, overburden, or impair it
Remove or obscure any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices

3. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. All calculator outputs are estimates based on the information you enter and simplified formulas; we do not warrant that they are accurate, reliable, complete, current, or applicable to your situation. The Service is for general educational purposes and is not financial, credit, tax, or legal advice. See our Disclaimer for full details.

4. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, The Credit & Debt Ally and the individuals who operate it will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of money, profits, data, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of — or inability to use — the Service or your reliance on any content or estimate provided by it. You use the Service, and make any financial decisions, entirely at your own risk.

5. Third-party and affiliate links

The Service displays advertising (including Google AdSense) and contains links to third-party websites and products, some of which are affiliate links. As an Amazon Associate and affiliate partner, we may earn a commission on qualifying purchases and referrals at no additional cost to you. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, products, services, or practices of any third-party site, and a link does not constitute an endorsement. Your dealings with any third party are solely between you and that third party.

6. Changes to the Service and these terms

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time without notice. We may also update these Terms from time to time; when we do, we will revise the "last updated" date above. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
