Terms of Use

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of SalaryCPA (salarycpa.com) and its content. By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

All content on SalaryCPA, including salary figures, benchmarks, percentiles, and estimates, is provided for general informational and research purposes only. It is not financial, tax, legal, accounting, career, or employment advice, and it is not a guarantee of any individual's pay or job outcome.

Figures represent broad-market research and may not reflect your specific circumstances. You should independently verify information and consult a qualified professional before making compensation, career, or financial decisions.

Our verified baseline is drawn from public U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics OEWS data for the broad occupation “Accountants and Auditors” (SOC 13-2011). The BLS does not publish a CPA-specific wage; figures broken out by role, experience, credential, employer, or industry are modeled estimates and are labeled as such. See our data sources and methodology for details.

The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. While we work hard to keep our data accurate and current, we do not warrant that it is error-free or continuously available.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, SalaryCPA and its operators will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or other damages arising from your use of, or reliance on, the site or its content, including any decisions made based on the figures published here.

The site's design, original text, compiled datasets, modeling methodology, and other original content are the intellectual property of SalaryCPA, except for third-party materials and public-domain government data used under their own terms. The underlying BLS OEWS data is public-domain U.S. government data.

You may cite or reference our published figures for commentary, reporting, or research. If you do, please attribute the figures to “SalaryCPA” with a link back to the relevant page, and preserve the distinction between verified and estimated figures — do not present a modeled estimate as a measured or BLS-published value.

Bulk scraping, wholesale republication of our datasets, or reuse that misrepresents our data or its provenance is not permitted without prior written permission. For licensing or data-partnership inquiries, email perrygrimaldi@gmail.com.

If you submit compensation information, you confirm it is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you consent to its use in anonymized, aggregated form as described in our Privacy Policy. You grant us permission to use submitted data in aggregate as part of our research.

You agree not to use the site to violate any law, infringe others' rights, interfere with the site's operation or security, or attempt to access data you are not authorized to access. We may restrict access for conduct that harms the site or its users.

The site contains advertising and may link to third-party websites. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party content, products, or practices. Advertising never influences our salary figures or rankings.

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Your continued use of the site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
