Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Recibo Simples, a tax estimation and income tracking tool for freelancers in Portugal. By creating an account, you agree to these Terms.

Description of Service

Recibo Simples helps Portuguese freelancers (trabalhadores independentes / recibos verdes) track income, estimate IRS and Social Security contributions, calculate tax reserves, and receive deadline reminders. The service provides estimates only — it does not constitute accounting, legal, or tax advisory services.

User Responsibilities

• You must provide accurate information when creating your account

Limitation of Liability

Recibo Simples is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for any financial losses, penalties, or damages arising from reliance on tax estimates provided by the platform. Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for the service in the 12 months preceding the claim.
