Terms of Use

Acceptance of These Terms

By accessing or using RestoCalculator, you agree to be bound by these Terms, to the extent permitted by applicable law. These Terms apply to everyone who visits or uses the Website. If any part of these Terms does not apply in your jurisdiction, the remaining Terms continue to apply as far as the law allows.

Use of the Website

RestoCalculator is a public website offering free restaurant calculators, tools and educational guides. You may use the Website for lawful purposes connected with your own business, planning or educational needs. When using the Website, please:

• enter reasonable, good-faith values into the calculators;
• use the tools and content for legitimate business or educational purposes;
• avoid attempting to disrupt, overload or interfere with the normal operation of the Website; and
• avoid interfering with the security of the Website or attempting to gain unauthorized access to it.

The Website is intended for general business and educational use and is not directed at children.

Calculator Use and Results

RestoCalculator's calculators perform mathematical calculations based on the values you enter. The accuracy of any result depends entirely on the accuracy of the inputs you provide. Some calculators rely on assumptions you choose yourself — for example, about costs, sales, payroll or seating — and where assumptions are involved, results are estimates rather than guarantees. Displayed values may also be rounded for readability, which can create small differences from an unrounded calculation.

Informational Purposes Only

RestoCalculator provides general educational information and calculation tools for planning purposes. RestoCalculator is not an accounting firm, tax adviser, law firm or financial adviser, and nothing on the Website constitutes accounting, tax, legal or other regulated professional advice. The information and calculator results on this Website are provided for general informational and planning purposes and should not be treated as a substitute for advice from a qualified professional familiar with your specific circumstances.

Using Calculator Results for Business Decisions

You are responsible for evaluating whether a calculator result is appropriate for your own business, including decisions about menu pricing, food cost, labor planning, profitability, break-even targets or seating capacity. RestoCalculator does not guarantee any particular business outcome, level of profitability or planning accuracy from the use of its tools.

Seating Capacity Estimates

The Restaurant Table Capacity Calculator provides planning estimates based on the dining area, table count and seats-per-table assumptions you enter. It does not determine legal occupancy, fire-code capacity, zoning compliance, accessibility compliance or any other regulatory requirement.

Intellectual Property

The Website's original text, branding, logos, graphics, design, code and calculator interfaces may be protected by applicable copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws, to the extent those protections apply. RestoCalculator does not claim ownership of any third-party trademarks, logos or materials that may appear on the Website.

Permitted Use of RestoCalculator Content

Subject to these Terms and applicable law, you may:

• access and use the publicly available content on the Website for your own personal or business informational purposes;
• use calculator results generated from your own inputs; and
• link to public RestoCalculator pages.

Unless we have given explicit permission, you may not copy or republish our guides or articles in full, systematically scrape or mirror the Website, reproduce our branding, or resell or repackage the calculators as your own product or service.

Automated Access and Abuse

You must not use bots, scripts or other automated means to overload the Website, interfere with its normal operation, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to it. RestoCalculator does not currently publish specific rate limits, but any automated use that materially disrupts the Website or its availability to other users is not permitted.

Third-Party Services and Links

RestoCalculator keeps the number of third-party services to a minimum. All fonts, scripts and styles are served from our own hosting, so browsing the Website does not cause your browser to contact third-party servers. The Website may link to third-party websites for reference. RestoCalculator does not control third-party sites or services and is not responsible for their content, availability or policies. See the Privacy Policy for more detail on how information is handled.

Website Availability

We aim to keep RestoCalculator available and functional, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access. The Website may occasionally be unavailable, modified or updated, including for maintenance or technical reasons, without prior notice.

Changes to the Website

RestoCalculator may add, modify, update or discontinue calculators, tools, guides or other content on the Website at any time. We do not promise advance notice of such changes unless required by applicable law.

Prohibited Use

When using RestoCalculator, you must not:

• use the Website for any unlawful purpose;
• attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Website or its underlying systems;
• interfere with or disrupt the normal operation of the Website;
• introduce viruses, malware or other harmful code; or
• use automated systems in a way that abuses or degrades the service.

Disclaimer of Warranties

To the extent permitted by applicable law, RestoCalculator is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We do not warrant that the Website will be uninterrupted, complete, fully accurate or fit for any particular purpose. Nothing in this section is intended to exclude or limit any warranty or right that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, RestoCalculator is not liable for losses or damages arising from your reliance on calculator outputs, guides or other content on the Website, or from your use of, or inability to use, the Website. Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or limit liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

Governing Law

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or with your use of the Website are governed by French law. The courts of France have jurisdiction over any such dispute or claim.

If you use the Website as a consumer resident in the European Union, this choice of law does not deprive you of the protection afforded by the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence, and you may also bring proceedings before the courts of that country.
