Terms of Use & Disclaimer

Not financial advice

Retirely is an educational and illustrative tool, not financial, investment, tax, legal, or accounting advice. It does not account for your full personal circumstances and is not a substitute for a qualified professional.

Before making any retirement, investment, or tax decision, consult a licensed advisor such as a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) or a tax professional who can review your specific situation.

About the projections

The calculator produces estimates based on the assumptions you enter and on simplified models of Canadian tax and benefit rules. Real outcomes will differ. In particular:

  • Tax brackets, benefit thresholds, and contribution limits are hard-coded by year and may not reflect the most current rates.
  • Investment returns are assumptions, not predictions — markets are uncertain, and Monte Carlo results illustrate a range of possibilities, not a guarantee.
  • CPP, OAS, GIS, RRIF, and provincial rules are modelled in a simplified way and may not capture every rule or your personal entitlement.

Treat every figure as a starting point for a conversation, not a promise of a future result.

Use of the site

Retirely is provided free of charge for your personal, non-commercial use. You agree to use it lawfully and not to attempt to disrupt, misuse, or reverse-engineer the service in a way that harms the site or other users.

No warranty

The site is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose, or uninterrupted availability. We do not warrant that the calculations are error-free or current.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Retirely and its operator are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, the site or its output — including any financial decision made on the basis of a projection. You use the tool at your own risk.

Third-party links

Some pages link to external websites (for example, government or reference sources) for your convenience. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or privacy practices of those sites.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the province in which the site operator resides and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles.
