Terms of Service
The short version: TariffIQ gives you AI-generated tariff analysis to help you think clearly about your duty exposure. It is not a substitute for a licensed customs broker, and you remain responsible for your own customs filings and compliance. Full terms below.
1. Agreement
By using TariffIQ (gettariffiq.com), you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the service. We may update these terms; the current version is always at gettariffiq.com/terms.
2. What TariffIQ is
TariffIQ is an AI-powered tool that takes a product description, country of origin, and import value, and returns:
- An estimated HTS (Harmonized Tariff Schedule) classification code
- An estimated duty rate, including any applicable Section 301, 232, or other additional tariffs
- An estimated dollar burden based on your import value
- A prioritized action plan and alternative sourcing considerations
3. Your responsibilities
When you use TariffIQ, you agree to:
- Use the service only for lawful business purposes
- Provide accurate inputs (we can't give you a useful analysis from inaccurate data)
- Independently verify any classification or duty rate before relying on it for an actual customs filing
- Not attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or otherwise abuse the service
- Not share your account credentials or use the service to provide bulk analysis as a reseller without our written permission
4. Accounts and subscriptions
The free tier provides limited analysis without an account. The Pro tier ($29/month) requires a subscription via Stripe. You can cancel at any time from the Stripe customer portal; cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period.
We offer a 7-day free trial on Pro. If you don't cancel during the trial, you'll be charged for the first month at the end of the trial period.
5. Refunds
Because Pro is billed monthly and you can cancel at any time, we generally don't issue refunds for partial months. If something is genuinely broken or you were charged in error, email byronwalk3r@gmail.com and we'll make it right.
6. Disclaimer of warranties
TariffIQ is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that the AI outputs will be accurate, complete, or current.
Tariff policy changes frequently and AI models have knowledge cutoffs. The information TariffIQ provides may be out of date, especially during periods of rapid policy change. You are responsible for verifying current rates before making business decisions.
7. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, TariffIQ and Byron Walker (the operator) are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages — including but not limited to lost profits, lost business, customs penalties, misclassification fines, or supply chain disruptions — arising from your use of, or inability to use, the service.
Our total cumulative liability for any claim arising from these terms or your use of TariffIQ is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you've paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or (b) $100.
8. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless TariffIQ and its operator from any claim arising from your use of the service, your violation of these terms, or your use of TariffIQ's outputs in your business operations.
9. Intellectual property
The TariffIQ service, design, and code are owned by Byron Walker. Your inputs (product descriptions, etc.) remain yours; your outputs (the analysis we return) are yours to use in your business.
10. Termination
You can stop using TariffIQ at any time. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, abuse the service, or attempt to evade rate limits or payment.
11. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, United States, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Smith County, Texas.
