1. Acceptance of Terms
By downloading, installing, or using TaxSquid, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old (or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction) and agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.
2. Description of Service
TaxSquid is a mobile application that helps eBay resellers track sales, fees, inventory, mileage, and estimated tax deductions. Features include:
- Syncing sales and fee data from your connected eBay account.
- Manually logging transactions, inventory, and expenses.
- Tracking business mileage, including optional GPS-based auto-tracking.
- Generating summary reports formatted around IRS Schedule C for your own reference.
3. Not Tax, Legal, or Financial Advice
TaxSquid is a record-keeping and estimation tool. It is not a tax preparation service, and nothing in the app constitutes tax, legal, financial, or accounting advice.
- Calculations shown in the app — including mileage deductions, home office deductions, and estimated net taxable income — are estimates based on the information you provide and general IRS guidelines. They may not reflect your actual tax liability.
- IRS rules, standard mileage rates, and deduction limits change over time. You are responsible for confirming that any rate or rule used in the app (including the default IRS standard mileage rate) is current and accurate for your tax year before filing.
- You should consult a licensed CPA, tax preparer, or attorney before making tax filing decisions based on information from TaxSquid.
- TaxSquid is not responsible for any penalties, interest, audits, or other consequences resulting from your use of the app's estimates or exported reports.
4. Account Registration & Security
- You must provide accurate information when creating an account and keep it up to date.
- You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account.
- Notify us promptly if you become aware of any unauthorized use of your account.
5. eBay Integration
- Connecting your eBay account is optional. If you connect it, you authorize TaxSquid to access read-only sales, fee, and order data via eBay's official API, as described in our Privacy Policy.
- TaxSquid is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by eBay Inc. "eBay" is a trademark of eBay Inc., used here only to describe compatibility with their platform.
- eBay's own data may occasionally be delayed, incomplete, or subject to eBay's own API limitations, which are outside TaxSquid's control.
6. Your Data & Content
- You retain ownership of the data you enter into TaxSquid, including manually entered transactions, inventory records, and settings.
- By using the app, you grant TaxSquid a limited license to store, process, and display your data solely to provide the app's functionality to you.
- You are responsible for the accuracy of any data you manually enter. TaxSquid does not independently verify user-entered amounts, dates, or categorizations.
7. Subscriptions & Payments
TaxSquid offers a free plan and an optional paid subscription, TaxSquid Pro.
- Free trial: New accounts receive a 3-day free trial of Pro features, starting when you create your account. No payment method is required, and you will not be charged automatically when the trial ends — you can then continue on the free plan or subscribe.
- Free plan: Includes manual tracking, inventory, and Tax Hub calculations, with limits on automatic mileage tracking and on eBay and CSV history — currently up to 30 saved drives per month and 90 days of eBay and CSV history. Current limits are shown in the app and may change.
- TaxSquid Pro: Available as a monthly or annual subscription. The price and billing period are shown on the purchase screen before you confirm. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.
- Automatic renewal: Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period, at the same price unless we notify you of a change.
- Managing and canceling: You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time in your Apple ID account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. Deleting your TaxSquid account does not cancel your subscription.
- Refunds: Purchases are made through the Apple App Store and are subject to Apple's terms and refund policies. Refund requests are handled by Apple; TaxSquid cannot issue refunds for App Store purchases directly.
- Price changes: We may change subscription prices. Apple will notify you and, where required, ask for your consent before a price increase takes effect.
8. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use TaxSquid for any unlawful purpose or in violation of eBay's own terms of service.
- Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or gain unauthorized access to TaxSquid's systems or other users' data.
- Use the app to store or transmit data you do not have the right to use.
9. Intellectual Property
TaxSquid's name, logo, design, and underlying software are the property of the app's developer and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any rights to TaxSquid's branding or source code beyond your personal, non-commercial use of the app itself.
10. Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability
TaxSquid is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to accuracy, reliability, or fitness for a particular purpose.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, TaxSquid and its developer are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the app, including but not limited to lost profits, lost data, or tax penalties, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
11. Termination
You may stop using TaxSquid at any time and may delete your account and data from within the app (Settings → Delete Account) or by contacting us, as described in our Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will update the "Last Updated" date above whenever changes are made, and for material changes we will notify you in the app or by email. Continued use of TaxSquid after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
13. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, unless otherwise required by applicable consumer protection laws in your jurisdiction.
