About this disclaimer

OD Accountants (Companies House number 04902704) is a chartered management accounting firm headquartered at Suite 310, The Pillbox, London E2 6GG, with a second office in Wells, Somerset. This disclaimer applies to everything the firm publishes — website pages, blog posts, guides, downloadable resources, calculators, and social media content. It should be read alongside the Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions, which cover personal data use and the terms that govern formal engagements with the firm.

Information, not advice

Important

All content published on odaccountants.co.uk is provided as general information for UK businesses and individuals. It is not, and should not be treated as, professional accounting, tax, legal, or financial advice. Every business and individual has a unique tax position, trading history, and set of circumstances that general published content cannot account for. Any decisions you make based solely on information from this website are made entirely at your own discretion. If you need advice you can rely on for your specific situation — whether that involves a tax query, a filing deadline, a corporate structure question, or anything else — please contact the firm directly or consult a qualified accountant.

Accuracy and currency

We take care to publish accurate content, but tax law and HMRC rates change — sometimes quickly — and content may become outdated between updates.

Accurate at time of publishing

All content on this website is researched and, to the best of our knowledge, accurate at the time it is published. However, tax law, HMRC rates, filing deadlines, and statutory thresholds are subject to change, and published content may become outdated between editorial updates.

Tax law changes

UK tax legislation changes at least annually through the Budget, and sometimes more frequently through the Autumn Statement, secondary legislation, or revised HMRC guidance. Specific rates, allowances, and thresholds can become outdated quickly — sometimes within weeks of an article first appearing on the site.

We do not promise updates

We do not undertake to update every piece of content whenever legislation or HMRC guidance changes. Articles and guides older than twelve months should be treated with particular caution. Always verify current rates and deadlines directly with HMRC or by contacting the firm.

Verify before acting

Before making any decision that involves HMRC submissions, tax payments, filing deadlines, or a significant financial commitment, please verify that the rules you are relying on are still current. The firm is happy to confirm the current position as part of a formal engagement or an initial discovery call.

No accountant-client relationship

Important

Reading this website, downloading a guide, using a calculator, completing the contact form, or attending a free discovery call does not create an accountant-client relationship between you and OD Accountants. That relationship arises only when both parties have signed a formal Engagement Letter setting out the agreed scope of work, fees, and applicable terms. Until that point, OD Accountants is not responsible for decisions you make in reliance on website content or a preliminary conversation, and you are not covered by the firm's professional indemnity insurance. If you are ready to formalise an engagement, please book a discovery call or request a free quote.

External links and third parties

This website may include links to third-party websites — including HMRC, Companies House, cloud accounting software providers such as Xero, and sources referenced in blog articles. OD Accountants does not control the content, accuracy, or availability of those sites. The inclusion of a link does not constitute an endorsement of the third party's services, products, or advice. When you follow an external link you leave the OD Accountants website, and OD Accountants accepts no responsibility for the content, practices, or reliability of any third-party website you access.

Calculators and tools

Any calculators or estimation tools available on this website — such as tax estimators or take-home pay tools — are provided for indicative purposes only. The figures they produce are based on standard assumptions and cannot account for your individual tax position, personal allowances, relief claims, company structure, or other specific circumstances. They should not be relied upon for the preparation or submission of tax returns, nor for any financial commitment or planning decision. The firm provides specific, accurate calculations as part of a formal engagement. For figures you can act on, please get in touch.

Liability

This section relates only to content published on this website, not to engaged professional services. Liability for work carried out under a formal engagement is governed by the Engagement Letter both parties sign at the outset.

Where OD Accountants is formally engaged as your accountant, the terms of that engagement — including any agreed liability position — are set out in the signed Engagement Letter. Nothing in this disclaimer limits, modifies, or overrides the terms of a signed Engagement Letter or any applicable professional standards.

What we do not limit

Nothing in this disclaimer excludes or restricts OD Accountants' liability for death or personal injury caused by the firm's negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted under UK law.

What we limit

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable UK law, OD Accountants accepts no liability for financial loss, loss of business, missed filing deadlines, HMRC penalties, or other direct or indirect losses arising from reliance on content published on this website — including blog articles, guides, downloadable resources, calculators, or any other general information material — where no formal engagement is in place.

When you should engage us

If you have a specific situation that requires advice you can rely on and act on, the appropriate route is to engage the firm formally. Book a discovery call, agree a scope of work, and sign an Engagement Letter. At that point the firm's professional indemnity insurance applies, and liability is governed by the terms of that agreement rather than this disclaimer.

Copyright and content

All content published on this website — including text, graphics, tools, and downloadable resources — is the property of OD Accountants or is used under licence from the relevant rights holder. Visitors are welcome to read and share content with clear attribution to OD Accountants and a link to the original page. Commercial reproduction, redistribution, or adaptation without prior written permission is not permitted. Please refer to the Terms and Conditions for full intellectual property terms.

Changes to this disclaimer

OD Accountants may update this disclaimer from time to time to reflect changes in law, regulatory guidance, or the scope of content published on the website. The 'Last reviewed' date at the top of this page will be updated whenever a change is made. Continued use of this website following any update constitutes acceptance of the revised disclaimer.
