Terms of service for TariffsChart
Apr 20, 2026

Introduction and Acceptance

Welcome to TariffsChart. These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of TariffsChart, a tariff estimation, landed-cost planning, and import-workflow recordkeeping product for importers, cross-border sellers, operators, sourcing teams, and finance teams. By accessing or using TariffsChart, you agree to these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use TariffsChart.

What TariffsChart Provides

TariffsChart helps users:

  • Enter shipment assumptions and cost inputs.
  • Estimate duty, additional tariff, import tax, fixed fees, landed cost, unit cost, and target selling price.
  • Save shipment scenarios, SKU records, and source snapshots.
  • Run beta official-source research workflows that generate checklists and source snapshot drafts.
  • Monitor allowlisted official source snapshots and generate tariff change alerts for review.
  • Compare planning variants.
  • Export broker-review packets that preserve assumptions, source links, dates, formulas, and open questions.
  • Create private broker-review links that allow a selected external broker or internal reviewer to record a workflow response.

TariffsChart is a planning and documentation tool. It does not provide customs brokerage, legal, tax, accounting, valuation, classification, freight-forwarding, financial, or government services.

No Professional Advice

TariffsChart and its outputs are for informational and planning purposes only. They are not legal advice, tax advice, customs advice, brokerage advice, accounting advice, financial advice, or a professional opinion on product classification, valuation, origin, admissibility, duty rates, taxes, fees, documentation requirements, or import eligibility.

You should consult official customs sources, a licensed customs broker, trade counsel, tax advisor, accountant, freight forwarder, or other qualified professional before filing entries, buying inventory, quoting customers, collecting duties or taxes, claiming exemptions, changing suppliers, setting prices, or making binding business decisions.

No Customs Filing or Government Relationship

TariffsChart does not file customs entries, submit documents to customs authorities, communicate with government agencies on your behalf, pay duties or taxes, obtain rulings, obtain permits, determine admissibility, or act as importer of record, exporter, customs broker, freight forwarder, tax representative, or agent.

TariffsChart is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by any customs authority, tax authority, government agency, trade commission, or official tariff database unless expressly stated in writing.

Estimates and Source Snapshots

TariffsChart estimates depend on user-entered data, selected assumptions, formulas, and source snapshots. Those inputs may be incomplete, inaccurate, outdated, misinterpreted, inapplicable to a particular shipment, or missing facts that affect the final result.

Duty rates, taxes, fees, trade remedies, exclusions, quotas, preferential programs, product admissibility, valuation treatment, origin treatment, documentation requirements, and filing rules can change. A source snapshot, official-source research result, source monitor, or tariff change alert records source URLs, dates, route context, HS/HTS context, confidence labels, checklist prompts, fingerprints, and user notes; it is not a certification that any source is complete, current, legally binding, unchanged, or applicable to your shipment. Official-source research and monitoring may fail, omit sources, misparse fields, miss changes, over-report changes, or return parent/related tariff lines that require manual review. A change alert is a prompt for review, not a conclusion that a rate, scope, exclusion, Chapter 99 treatment, or filing instruction has changed.

A scenario status such as draft, broker review, confirmed, or broker-confirmed is a user workflow label only. It is not a certification by TariffsChart, and it does not replace independent professional review.

User Responsibilities

You are responsible for:

  • Providing accurate and complete product, shipment, price, origin, quantity, freight, insurance, tax, fee, and source information.
  • Verifying HS/HTS classification, origin, country-of-origin marking, valuation, Incoterms treatment, duty rate, additional tariff, import tax base, free-trade-agreement eligibility, exclusions, quotas, licenses, permits, sanctions/export-control considerations, and other requirements.
  • Determining whether antidumping duties, countervailing duties, safeguard duties, Section 301 duties, Chapter 99 classifications, retaliatory measures, product safety rules, partner-government-agency rules, or other special measures apply.
  • Keeping records required by applicable law and by your customs broker, tax advisor, or regulator.
  • Reviewing all outputs with official sources and qualified professionals before relying on them.

You remain responsible for your filings, commercial decisions, compliance obligations, payments, penalties, delays, and losses even if you used TariffsChart to organize assumptions, generate a broker-review packet, or collect a response through a broker-review link.

Broker-review packets and private review links are handoff tools designed to help you communicate assumptions to a customs broker, internal reviewer, sourcing teammate, or finance teammate. They are not instructions to file, final import declarations, legal opinions, customs rulings, binding advice, or proof that a duty rate or classification is correct.

A reviewer response such as confirmed or needs more information is a workflow record supplied by the reviewer. It is not a certification, warranty, professional opinion, or guarantee by TariffsChart. Anyone reviewing a packet or link should independently verify the product facts, HS/HTS classification, valuation, origin, trade remedies, import-tax treatment, fees, and filing requirements.

Beta Features and Paid Access

TariffsChart may offer free features, Pro beta access, and Team pilot access. During beta, some paid or pilot features may be manually granted, limited, changed, paused, or removed. Self-service paid checkout may remain disabled until billing, entitlement controls, official-source research reliability, monitoring, downgrade behavior, and legal terms are production-ready.

Feature descriptions on pricing or marketing pages are product plans, not guarantees that every feature is available to every user immediately. We may change plan limits, eligibility, beta invitations, feature availability, and pricing before general availability.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use TariffsChart for unlawful, fraudulent, deceptive, infringing, or harmful activity.
  • Misrepresent TariffsChart output as an official ruling, government statement, broker instruction, or professional advice.
  • Upload malware or attempt to compromise service security, availability, data, or accounts.
  • Access another user’s workspace without authorization.
  • Scrape, copy, resell, redistribute, or build a competing dataset from substantial parts of the service without written permission.
  • Use TariffsChart to evade customs, tax, sanctions, export-control, import-control, product-safety, or other legal obligations.

User Content

You retain ownership of product descriptions, shipment inputs, SKU records, source snapshots, notes, files, and other content you submit. You grant TariffsChart a limited license to host, store, process, display, transmit, analyze, and use your content as needed to provide, secure, support, debug, and improve the service.

Do not submit content unless you have the right to do so. Do not submit sensitive, regulated, export-controlled, restricted, classified, or highly confidential information unless you have confirmed that TariffsChart is appropriate for that information and you are authorized to share it.

Intellectual Property

TariffsChart, including its software, product design, documentation, workflows, templates, formulas, UI, brand, and content, is owned by TariffsChart or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Except as expressly allowed, you may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, resell, sublicense, or redistribute the service.

TariffsChart may link to official sources, customs websites, broker resources, payment providers, authentication providers, analytics tools, hosting providers, storage providers, email providers, or other third-party services. We are not responsible for third-party content, availability, accuracy, security, policies, or actions. A link does not imply endorsement unless expressly stated.

Payments, Cancellations, and Refunds

If paid plans are offered, billing terms will be shown at checkout or in an order form. You are responsible for applicable taxes and fees. Unless a written agreement states otherwise, payments are non-refundable except where required by law or where TariffsChart chooses to provide a refund.

If a payment fails, a subscription is canceled, or a pilot entitlement expires, we may downgrade, suspend, or limit access to paid features. We may retain user content according to the Privacy Policy and applicable law.

Availability and Changes

TariffsChart is provided as a beta-stage product and may change quickly. We may update, suspend, rate-limit, discontinue, or remove parts of the service. We do not guarantee uninterrupted, secure, current, error-free, or always-available operation.

No Warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, TariffsChart is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise. We disclaim warranties of accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability, non-infringement, reliability, availability, and that outputs will satisfy customs, tax, legal, financial, or business requirements.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, TariffsChart and its owners, operators, employees, contractors, suppliers, and affiliates will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, punitive, or enhanced damages; lost profits; lost revenue; lost savings; lost data; reputational harm; customs penalties; tax penalties; shipment delays; demurrage; detention; storage charges; chargebacks; inventory losses; product launch delays; pricing errors; business interruption; or losses arising from classification, valuation, origin, trade-remedy, tax, fee, documentation, or admissibility decisions.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, TariffsChart’s aggregate liability for any claim relating to the service will not exceed the greater of: (a) the amount you paid to TariffsChart for the service giving rise to the claim during the three months before the event giving rise to liability; or (b) USD $100. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some limitations may not apply to you.
