Terms of Use and Disclaimer
By using AgeGapCalc you agree to these terms. The short version: our calculators and guides are for reference only, nothing here is legal, medical or relationship advice, and the half-your-age-plus-7 rule is a folk guideline — not a standard of any kind.
1. Informational purpose only
All content on this site is provided for general informational purposes. The calculators perform arithmetic on the dates or ages you enter; the guides describe how people commonly talk about age differences. Nothing on this site constitutes legal, medical, psychological or relationship advice, and no professional relationship is created by using the site.
2. The half-your-age-plus-7 rule
The rule of half your age plus 7 is a folk guideline that circulates socially. We present it descriptively — what it says, where it is commonly traced from, and what critics say — and we do not endorse it as correct, validated or authoritative. It is not a legal standard, and it does not define whether any particular relationship is appropriate.
3. Adult ages only
This site discusses ages of 18 and above. Calculators reject ages below 18, and our examples, tables and FAQs use adult ages exclusively. Nothing on this site addresses relationships involving minors, and such content is out of scope everywhere on AgeGapCalc.
4. No warranties
The site and its content are provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. While we test our calculators carefully, we do not warrant that results are free of error, that the site will always be available, or that content is complete or current. You use the site at your own discretion.
5. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, AgeGapCalc and its operators are not liable for any decisions made, or actions taken, based on the content or results published on this site.
6. Third-party services
Calculations run entirely in your browser. At launch, the site loads no third-party advertising or analytics scripts. If that changes, the change will be reflected in our Privacy Policy before such scripts are enabled.
7. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as the site evolves. The effective version is always the one published on this page.
