  1. General educational and reference purpose

We provide general educational information, organizational resources, planning prompts, estimates, assessments, calculators, checklists and links to third-party resources through AltaVidaSites.

AltaVidaSites are intended to help users:

  1. No government affiliation or endorsement

Names, acronyms, forms, program names, trademarks, and agency links are used solely for identification, education, commentary, and reference.

Nothing on AltaVidaSites constitutes an official agency determination, instruction, approval, calculation, eligibility decision, benefits estimate, or statement of government policy.

  1. We Do Not Administer Government Benefits

Unless expressly stated in a separate written agreement signed by an authorized representative, use of AltaVidaSites does not mean that we will:

  • determine eligibility for government benefits;
  • calculate official military, federal, Social Security, disability, survivor, or healthcare benefits;
  • prepare, submit, certify, monitor, manage, or prosecute government claims;
  • complete or file retirement packages;
  • make elections on behalf of users;

Users remain solely responsible for contacting the appropriate agency, confirming current requirements, submitting accurate and complete information, retaining documentation, meeting deadlines, and obtaining professional assistance when needed.

  1. No legal advice or attorney-client relationship

Content available through AltaVidaSites is provided for general educational purposes and does not constitute legal advice.

  • We do not provide legal opinions concerning:

  • government-benefit rights;

  • any other legal matter.

Use of AltaVidaSites, completion of a form, submission of an assessment, receipt of an email, or participation in a general discussion does not create an attorney-client relationship.

Users should consult an appropriately licensed attorney concerning their particular circumstances.

  1. No tax or accounting advice

Content available through AltaVidaSites does not constitute individualized tax, accounting, or tax-return preparation advice.

Tax treatment may depend on facts not collected or evaluated through AltaVidaSites, including:

  • deductions and credits;
  • retirement-plan basis;
  • Roth and traditional account history;
  • disability status;
  • business structure;
  • trust ownership;
  • insurance policy structure;
  • beneficiary arrangements; and
  • changes in federal or state law.

Users should verify tax consequences with a qualified tax professional before completing a transaction, election, withdrawal, rollover, conversion, transfer, filing, or other tax-sensitive action.

  1. No investment, securities, or fiduciary advice

AltaVidaSites do not provide individualized investment advice, securities recommendations, investment-management services or fiduciary advice.

References to investments, retirement accounts, TSP funds, IRAs, Roth conversions, cash-value life insurance, annuities, real estate, trusts, or other financial strategies are educational and do not constitute a recommendation to buy, sell, hold, exchange, transfer, surrender, replace, or allocate any asset or financial product.

Nothing available through AltaVidaSites guarantees:

  • investment performance;
  • account growth;
  • tax savings;
  • income;
  • liquidity;
  • principal protection;
  • market returns;
  • creditor protection; or
  • suitability for any particular user.

Users should consult appropriately licensed financial, investment, tax, and legal professionals before acting.

  1. Insurance information and licensed activity

Insurance-related Content available through AltaVidaSites is general and educational.

No insurance coverage is created, issued, bound, modified, replaced, or guaranteed through:

  • viewing Content through AltaVidaSites;
  • completing an assessment;
  • using a calculator;
  • downloading a report;
  • scheduling a conversation; or
  • submitting a contact, access or assessment form.

Insurance products and services, when available, may be offered only through appropriately licensed individuals and only in jurisdictions where they are legally authorized to conduct business.

Product availability, underwriting, premiums, benefits, exclusions, limitations, surrender values, guarantees, tax treatment, and suitability vary by carrier, contract, jurisdiction, age, health, financial circumstances, and other factors.

An insurance application is subject to carrier review, underwriting, approval, payment of required premium, delivery requirements, and the terms of the issued contract.

We or appropriately licensed professionals with whom we work may receive commissions or other compensation in connection with insurance products or services where permitted by applicable law.

Any material role, relationship, licensing status or compensation disclosure applicable to a specific transaction will be provided as required by applicable law.

  1. No healthcare or medical advice

References available through AltaVidaSites to TRICARE, Medicare, healthcare coverage, disability, long-term care, medical retirement, health conditions, or insurance eligibility are educational only.

Content available through AltaVidaSites does not constitute:

  • medical advice;
  • diagnosis;
  • treatment;
  • healthcare eligibility confirmation;
  • coverage authorization;
  • medical necessity determination; or
  • instructions to delay or discontinue medical care.

Users should consult the appropriate healthcare provider, insurer, plan administrator, government agency, or licensed professional.

AltaVidaSites do not provide emergency services. Anyone experiencing a medical or other emergency should contact the appropriate emergency service immediately.

  1. Calculators, assessments, scores, reports, and estimates

Calculators, assessments, scores, reports, projections and similar interactive resources available through AltaVidaSites are educational planning aids and are collectively referred to as “Tools.”

Results may be based on:

  • information entered by the user;
  • simplified assumptions;
  • generalized formulas;
  • estimated tax rates;
  • estimated benefit amounts;
  • user-selected growth or inflation rates;
  • rounding;
  • incomplete information;
  • assumptions that may not apply to the user; and
  • laws, limits, costs, or program information available when the tool was last reviewed.

Results are not official benefit calculations, account statements, insurance illustrations, tax projections, legal determinations, investment recommendations, actuarial opinions, or guarantees.

A score, classification, or result indicating that an area appears “aligned,” “prepared,” “complete,” or similar does not establish that all requirements have been satisfied or that no further review is necessary.

Users must verify all calculations and conclusions independently before acting.

  1. User inputs and incomplete information

The Tools cannot evaluate facts that users do not provide or that the Tools are not designed to collect.

Users are responsible for:

  • entering complete and accurate information;
  • reviewing results for obvious errors;
  • correcting outdated or inaccurate assumptions;
  • confirming that the selected retirement system, benefit category, tax treatment, jurisdiction, and household circumstances are correct; and
  • obtaining individualized review where necessary.

We are not responsible for results affected by inaccurate, incomplete, ambiguous, outdated, or incorrectly entered information.

  1. Deadlines and time-sensitive actions

Government benefits, insurance, retirement elections, healthcare enrollment, claims, appeals, beneficiary changes, tax filings, and legal rights may be subject to strict deadlines.

We do not undertake a duty to:

  • identify every applicable deadline;
  • send reminders;
  • monitor pending matters;
  • confirm receipt by an agency;
  • follow up with users;
  • preserve appeal rights; or
  • prevent coverage or benefit gaps.

Users should not delay a filing, election, enrollment, claim, appeal, premium payment, record correction, or other time-sensitive action while waiting for information or a response from us.

Deadlines must be confirmed directly with the responsible agency, carrier, plan administrator, employer, attorney, or other authoritative source.

  1. Accuracy, completeness, and changes in information

We use reasonable efforts to research, review, cite and update educational Content available through AltaVidaSites. However, we cannot guarantee that all information will always be:

  • complete;
  • current;
  • accurate;
  • applicable to every user;
  • free from typographical or technical errors;
  • consistent with the latest agency interpretation; or
  • unaffected by later changes.

Laws, regulations, government guidance, administrative procedures, forms, websites, program names, eligibility rules, tax treatment, interest rates, premiums, costs, benefit amounts, and agency interpretations may change without notice.

Government agencies may also provide inconsistent, incomplete, delayed, or case-specific information.

A “last reviewed” date indicates when the applicable Content was reviewed. It does not guarantee that no change occurred afterward.

We may revise, correct, remove or update Content at any time, but do not undertake a legal duty to monitor or update every page continuously.

  1. Official sources and independent verification

Links and citations to government or other authoritative sources available through AltaVidaSites are provided to help users conduct independent research.

Users should:

  1. open the cited source;
  2. confirm that the page is current;
  3. review applicable forms, instructions, exceptions, and definitions;
  4. contact the responsible agency when clarification is needed; and
  5. obtain qualified professional advice before making material decisions.

A citation does not guarantee that a source addresses every exception or circumstance relevant to a particular user.

  1. Third-party websites, products, and services

AltaVidaSites may link to third-party websites, government portals, calculators, software, financial institutions, insurers, agencies, service providers, or other resources.

We do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their:

  • availability;
  • accessibility;
  • security;
  • privacy practices;
  • accuracy;
  • content;
  • terms;
  • fees;
  • products;
  • services; or
  • actions.

A link does not necessarily constitute endorsement, sponsorship, recommendation, or verification.

Users access third-party resources at their own discretion and are subject to the third party’s policies and terms.

  1. Use of Augmented Intelligence, Artificial Intelligence and Machine-Assisted Tools

We use augmented intelligence and other machine-assisted technologies to support research, drafting, organization, review, calculation, transcription, formatting and delivery of educational materials. These technologies may include systems commonly referred to as artificial intelligence or AI.

Machine-assisted and AI-assisted Content may contain errors, omissions, outdated information, incorrect assumptions, inaccurate calculations, fabricated citations, misleading wording or visual defects.

Educational Content remains subject to human direction, review and editing, but human review does not guarantee that every error will be identified.

Users must independently verify material information before relying on it.

Use of augmented-intelligence, machine-assisted or AI-assisted Content does not transfer responsibility for a user’s decisions or actions to us. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we are not responsible for losses, damages, missed opportunities, adverse outcomes or other consequences resulting from reliance on such Content without appropriate independent verification or professional review.

  1. No guarantee of results

We do not guarantee that use of AltaVidaSites, Tools, or any related resource will produce:

  • approval of a claim or application;
  • receipt of a government benefit;
  • increased retirement income;
  • tax savings;
  • investment gains;
  • insurance approval;
  • favorable underwriting;
  • legal protection;
  • debt reduction;
  • business revenue;
  • improved credit;
  • successful retirement;
  • successful estate planning; or
  • any other particular result.

Examples, illustrations, testimonials, case studies, hypothetical scenarios, and sample outcomes are not promises that another user will obtain the same or similar result.

Individual outcomes vary.

Users remain responsible for their own decisions and actions, including whether and how they rely on information, calculations, examples, assessments, reports, or other materials provided through AltaVidaSites.

 

  1. No professional or fiduciary relationship

Accessing AltaVidaSites, completing a form, downloading information, using a Tool, receiving an automated report, subscribing to email or communicating generally with us does not, by itself, create:

  • a client relationship;
  • a fiduciary relationship;
  • an advisory relationship;
  • an attorney-client relationship;
  • an accountant-client relationship;
  • an insurance-producer/client relationship;
  • a healthcare-provider/patient relationship;
  • an agency relationship;
  • a government-representative relationship; or
  • any duty to monitor or act on the user’s behalf.

A professional relationship may arise only through a separate written agreement or other legally sufficient engagement that clearly identifies:

  • the parties;
  • the professional role;
  • the scope of services;
  • applicable licensing;
  • compensation;
  • limitations;
  • responsibilities; and
  • termination rights.
  1. Sensitive information

Users should not submit highly sensitive information through forms available on AltaVidaSites, ordinary email, chat or other unsecured channels unless specifically requested through an approved secure process.

Do not send items such as:

  • Social Security numbers;
  • DoD identification numbers;
  • account passwords;
  • full bank or credit-card numbers;
  • complete tax returns;
  • unredacted medical records;
  • government login credentials;
  • private encryption keys; or
  • other information not specifically required.

We may delete unsolicited sensitive information and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, are not responsible for consequences resulting from a user voluntarily transmitting sensitive information through an inappropriate or unsecured channel.

  1. Disclaimer of warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, AltaVidaSites and all related Content, Tools, reports, assessments, calculators, downloads and services made available without a separate written agreement are provided “as is” and “as available.”

  • We disclaim all express and implied warranties to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including warranties of:
  • accuracy;

  • merchantability;
  • fitness for a particular purpose;
  • title;
  • noninfringement;
  • availability;
  • compatibility;
  • security; and
  • uninterrupted or error-free operation.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions. In those jurisdictions, exclusions apply only to the extent legally permitted.

  1. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we and, where applicable, our employees, contractors, affiliates, licensors, referral partners and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, punitive or similar damages arising from or related to use of, inability to use or reliance on AltaVidaSites, Tools, Content, reports, assessments, calculators or other resources.

This includes alleged losses arising from:

  • investment losses;
  • insurance decisions;

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, users remain responsible for decisions and actions taken in reliance on information or outputs provided through AltaVidaSites, including augmented-intelligence, machine-assisted or AI-assisted Content, and for obtaining independent verification or appropriate professional review before making material decisions.

Nothing in this disclaimer excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded or limits rights that cannot legally be waived.

  1. Conflicts with separate written agreements

When a user enters into a separate written agreement with us or with an appropriately licensed professional, that agreement controls the services specifically covered by it.

This general Legal Disclaimer continues to apply to matters outside the scope of the separate written engagement.

 

 

No article available through AltaVidaSites, email, assessment result, Tool output or informal conversation expands the scope of a separate written agreement unless the change is made in writing and accepted by authorized parties.
