Terms of Service

These terms apply when you use macroscalc.net, including the calculator and the guides. By using the site you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use it.

The site is an information tool, not a health service. The terms are short on purpose.

Use of the Site

The calculator and guides give general estimates of energy and macronutrient targets for healthy adults aged 18 to 80. You may use them for personal, non-commercial purposes. You must not use the site if you are under 18, pregnant or breastfeeding, or managing a medical condition or an eating disorder without a clinician's guidance.

No Professional Advice

Nothing on the site is medical, nutritional or other professional advice, and using it does not create a doctor-patient or dietitian-client relationship. Read the medical disclaimer before acting on any number.

Accuracy and Estimates

Results come from published equations and fixed constants listed on the methodology page. They are estimates and can differ from your real energy use. We work to keep content correct and fix errors we find, but we do not guarantee that it is complete, current or suitable for you.

Content and Intellectual Property

The text, design, calculator code and examples are owned by MacroCalculator unless stated otherwise. You may quote short passages with a visible link to the source page. You may not copy whole pages, republish the guides, scrape the site at scale or present the calculator as your own.

Acceptable Use

Do not attempt to disrupt or overload the site, bypass its security, probe it for vulnerabilities without permission, or use automated tools to submit requests in bulk. We may block access that harms the site or other visitors.

The site may show advertising served by Google and may link to outside websites. We do not control or endorse third-party ads or sites and are not responsible for their content or practices. See the advertising disclosure and the privacy policy.

Disclaimer of Warranties

The site is provided as is and as available, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose.

Limitation of Liability

To the extent the law allows, MacroCalculator and its authors are not liable for any loss or harm arising from your use of the site or reliance on its results. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer protection law where you live.

Changes and Contact

We may update these terms, and the date at the top shows the latest version. Continued use after a change means you accept it. Questions go to contact@macroscalc.net through the contact page.
