### What formula does the Base64 Decoder use?

Base64 characters are decoded to bytes, then interpreted as UTF-8 text. The visible formula section above lists the calculation path and the edge cases the page handles, so the result can be checked without relying on the form alone.

### Can the Base64 Decoder be used for exact decisions?

Use it as a calculation aid, not as a substitute for checking the underlying rule, contract, policy, or professional advice that applies to your situation. When a result depends on local rules, personal details, prices, or dates, enter those values yourself and confirm them before acting.

## Limitations and assumptions

- The result depends on the values you enter for this base64 decoder; it does not supply missing rates, rules, prices, dates, or assumptions for you.
