Acceptance
By using The Body Calculator (“the site”) you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.
Not medical advice
The site is for education only. Every calculator presents the output of a formula published in the medical literature. Those formulas are sometimes imperfect, sometimes out of date, and never tailored to your individual situation. Nothing on this site is a substitute for a consultation with a qualified medical professional who has examined you in person and reviewed your full medical history.
Do not start, stop, or change any medical treatment based on a number you see here. If a result concerns you, talk to a medical professional.
No warranty
The site is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that calculations are error-free, that the formulas reflect the latest research, that interpretive bands match every guideline body, or that the site will be available at any particular time.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the site authors are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from your use of the site, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
Your responsibility
You are solely responsible for any actions you take based on information from the site. If you have a medical question, see a medical professional.
Intellectual property
The implementations on this site (HTML / CSS / JavaScript) belong to the site authors. The underlying formulas are published research and are credited to their original authors on each calculator card, with a link to the source paper. Names like “Friedewald”, “Mifflin-St Jeor”, “CHA₂DS₂-VASc” refer to the original publications.
External links
The site links to external research databases. We are not responsible for the content of those sites or any harm arising from your use of them.
Changes
We may revise these terms at any time. Continued use of the site after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction where the site operator is established. [Placeholder — fill in once registered.]
