Terms of Use

Last updated: October 2026

About These Terms

These terms apply when you use upfrontwealth.ca. UpFront Wealth (“we”, “us”) is a free financial education website for Canadians, operated by Andrew Austin in Ontario, Canada. By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

Education, Not Advice

Everything on this site is general information for educational purposes. It is not financial, investment, tax, legal, accounting or insurance advice, and it is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security or financial product. Using the site does not create a professional–client relationship. Your situation is your own, so talk to a qualified professional before making important financial decisions.

Calculators and Figures

Calculators and tools give estimates. They use what you enter and the published rates and rules that were current when the page was last reviewed. Rates, rules and benefit amounts change, and an estimate can be wrong or leave out something that matters to you. Check important figures with the Canada Revenue Agency, your province, your financial institution or a professional before relying on them. The numbers you type stay in your browser; the Privacy Policy explains how.

No Warranty

We work to keep the content accurate and current, but the site and everything on it are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, including accuracy, completeness or fitness for a particular purpose.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Andrew Austin and UpFront Wealth are not liable for any loss or damage, direct or indirect, that results from using or relying on the site, its calculators and tools, or any website it links to.

Referral and Affiliate Links

Some links are referral or affiliate links, and each one is labelled where it appears. If you sign up or buy through one, we may receive a bonus or commission. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. These relationships never decide what gets recommended. The full list is on the Resources page.

Other Websites and Trademarks

Links to other websites are there for convenience. We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content, offers or privacy practices. Brand names, logos and trademarks belong to their owners and appear here only to identify their products. Showing them does not mean those companies sponsor or endorse UpFront Wealth.

Kids & Teens Pages

The Kids & Teens section is written for young people learning with a parent, guardian or teacher. The newsletter signup is not offered on those pages.

Using Our Content

The content on this site is © UpFront Wealth. You're welcome to link to any page, and to print or share pages for personal, classroom or other non-commercial educational use, as long as you credit UpFront Wealth and don't change the content. Please ask before republishing large parts of it or using it commercially.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows the current version, and changes apply from the day they are posted.

Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply there.
