Disclaimer

Last updated: July, 2026

The information and tools provided by APACitation-Generator.com (the “Site”) are for general informational and educational purposes only. By using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Disclaimer.

1. Citations Are a Starting Point — Always Verify

Our generator produces citations automatically from the information you enter or that is retrieved from a URL, DOI, or ISBN. The output is a starting point, not a guaranteed correct reference. Automatically retrieved data can be incomplete or wrong, and citation rules have exceptions the tool may not capture. Always check each citation and in-text reference against the relevant official style manual (for example, the APA 7th edition manual) and your institution’s specific requirements before you submit your work.

2. Not Professional or Academic Advice

Nothing on this Site constitutes professional, academic, or legal advice. We are not responsible for grades, academic outcomes, allegations of plagiarism, or other consequences arising from the use of generated citations. If you are unsure how to cite a source, consult your instructor, librarian, or your institution’s writing center.

3. No Guarantee of Accuracy

While we make reasonable efforts to follow published style guidelines and keep the tool up to date, we make no representation or warranty of any kind regarding the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or suitability of the citations, guides, or other content. Any reliance you place on them is strictly at your own risk.

4. Trademarks and No Affiliation

“APA” and related marks are trademarks of the American Psychological Association. Other names are used descriptively to identify commonly recognized citation or referencing formats. All third-party marks remain the property of their respective owners, where applicable. This Site is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, authorized, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of these organizations.

5. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, our liability arising from or relating to the Site or its citations — including any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in a generated reference — is excluded or limited as described in the Limitation of Liability section of our Terms of Service. Nothing in this Disclaimer or those Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

6. External Links and Advertising

The Site may include links to external websites and, once enabled, advertisements that are not operated by us. We have no control over the content or reliability of those sites and are not responsible for them. The inclusion of any link or advertisement does not imply endorsement.

7. Your Responsibility

You are solely responsible for verifying every citation before acting on it, for the accuracy of the information you enter, and for complying with your institution’s academic integrity policies.
