• Complying with all applicable laws and regulations, including not using the App while driving in an unsafe way

5. Tax Disclaimer

Important: MileTracker is a tracking tool only. We are not tax professionals. The mileage rates and deduction calculations are based on published IRS standard mileage rates but are not tax advice. Always consult a qualified tax professional about your situation.

We do not guarantee:

• The accuracy of GPS-tracked distances
• That your trips qualify for tax deductions
• The correctness of IRS mileage rates displayed (rates may change)
• Acceptance of MileTracker reports by the IRS or any tax authority

6. Accuracy and Limitations

While we strive to provide accurate mileage tracking:

• GPS accuracy depends on environmental factors and device capabilities
• Automatic trip detection may occasionally miss trips or record unintended trips
• You should review and verify all tracked trips
