7. With the exception of the GoalTracker Plus financial advice provided by Russell Investments Financial Solutions Pty Ltd (ABN 84 010 799 041 AFSL 229850), this App provides general financial product advice only and does not take into account your detailed objectives, specific financial situation or needs.
8. Any projections or calculations provided in the App are estimates only and are not predictions or guarantees of actual results. The actual amounts achieved may be higher or lower.
9. The projections, calculations, services and any transactions performed in the App use the information we currently hold on file, the inputs you provide and may include data sourced from a third party. We believe the information to be accurate and reliable at the time it was sourced but if any of your information is incorrect it can impact the result/outcome/information displayed for you. You should update any incorrect information as soon as possible. Where you cannot change the information yourself, please contact us to make the changes for you. Russell Investments is not liable for any Loss incurred where incorrect information provided to the Fund has been used in your projections, calculations, or the performance of services or the completion of transactions. We believe the assumptions detailed in these Terms are reasonable overall and meet the purpose of this App. We have received actuarial advice that the assumptions used in the calculations are appropriate.
10. Superannuation benefits can be impacted by sudden changes to your individual circumstances, legislation, investment earnings, tax and inflation.
11. Before making an investment decision, you need to consider whether it is appropriate to your objectives, financial situation and needs.
12. Further information about your superannuation account with the Fund is available in the Product Disclosure Statements which can be accessed for iQ Super, iQ Retirement and Resource Super members at russellinvestments.com.au or by calling 1800 555 667, or for Nationwide Super members at nationwidesuper.com.au or by calling 1800 025 241.

Neither the Fund, Russell Investments nor any of its associated companies guarantees the security of this App, or gives any warranty of reliability or accuracy nor accepts any responsibility arising in any other way including by reason of negligence for, errors in, or omissions from, the information contained in this App and does not accept any liability for any loss or damage, however caused, as a result of any person relying on any information provided via the App or being unable to access the App. Please also refer to the Liability section.
    
    

    Fees and charges

14. Any fees and charges that apply to your superannuation account continue to apply where you request transactions and services via the App. Please read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement for the latest fees and charges that will apply to you.
    

    
    App calculations and assumptions

15. The Assumptions used in the App, the GoalTracker Plus Terms of Service, and the GoalTracker Plus Methodology are clearly identified and are accessible within the App. 
16. Account Balance.
    All account balances shown are estimates only based on the information currently held on file including the estimated value of your account at each 30 June. If any of the information held on file is incorrect it may impact your account balance. Your current account balance does not include transactions yet to be processed.
17. Investment Earnings.
    The % p.a. investment earnings displayed for your account on the dashboard/home screen and on the investment earnings screen are only applicable to you, and reflect the timing and size of cash flows to your account. The investment earnings are indicative only. You should not use this figure in isolation to directly compare the performance of your account to other investments or products, because published returns of other products will not take into account the same cash flows. The earnings have been calculated on a money weighted basis and are based on a starting date, the associated balance at that date (which may be zero), an ending date and the associated balance at that date. The calculation includes the credits and debits to your account between those dates and their investment earnings. If the period between the start and end date is greater than a year, the earnings are annualised. These indicative investment earnings have been calculated with respect to your account only. Please note if you have had an unusual transaction on your account, the investment earnings are likely to be inaccurate for you. To compare investment earnings of different investment portfolios you should not use these rates but should refer to the product profiles of each portfolio on russellinvestments.com.au
18. How your balance compares.
    The information used for this comparison has been gathered from the Fund membership. It is important to note that how you compare to other members of the Fund does not indicate whether you will have sufficient funds in your retirement. It is for information purposes only. You can use the GoalTracker tools within the App (i.e. My Tracker, the generic financial calculator) to obtain more information about whether you are on track to your retirement goals.
19. Contributions & Contribution Limits.
    There are annual limits, also known as caps, which apply to the amount of money that can be contributed to superannuation. The dollar limits are applicable to the total combined contributions made across all of your super accounts (where you have more than one account). We can only track the contributions you have made to the superannuation account you are logged into via the App. If you make contributions to other superannuation accounts, those contributions will NOT be reflected in the App. You will need to separately include them in your own calculations to decide whether you can make further contributions to your super without incurring additional tax liabilities. For details of the current limits refer to the Australian Taxation Office website.
20. Search for My Super & Combine My Super.
    Where you consent for us to search for your super, we will use your Tax File Number and the databases made available by the Australian Taxation Office to obtain details of your other superannuation accounts (i.e. both lost and active accounts). We do not transfer your other superannuation accounts to the Fund unless you instruct us to do so. Note the data held by the Australian Taxation Office is based on the official names of superannuation funds and their Australian Business Numbers (ABNs). Therefore, the name of a super fund we find for you may be different to the name you know it by (e.g. a marketing name). Before you consent to combine/consolidate/transfer your super to your Fund account, you should compare the fees you pay and consider your insurance arrangements. We will not be held accountable for any Loss incurred where you have instructed us to combine/consolidate/transfer another superannuation account to your account with the Fund.
