Terms of Use


Last updated: 2026

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of this website and the book The Veteran’s Benefits Playbook (the “Book”). By purchasing, downloading, or using a Book or this website, you agree to these Terms and to our Disclaimer. If you do not agree, please do not use the site or buy the Book.

1. What you're buying

You are buying a digital book delivered as a downloadable PDF for your own personal use. No physical product is shipped. You are responsible for having a device able to open a standard PDF.

2. License — personal use only

The Book is licensed, not sold, for your personal and household use. You may read it, keep it, and print a copy for yourself. You may not resell, republish, share, sublicense, or distribute it, in whole or in part, or use it for any commercial purpose. If someone else would find it useful, please direct them to this website to buy their own copy.

3. Payment, delivery & refunds

Payment and delivery are handled by our third-party platform, Gumroad, subject to its own terms. Because this is a digital product delivered instantly, all sales are final once the download has begun. If your file is faulty, corrupted, or won't open, contact us through the receipt or order page from your Gumroad purchase and we will replace it or provide a refund.

4. Education, not professional advice

The Book helps you understand VA benefits, rules, and processes in plain English and points you to the right forms, offices, and questions. It is not legal, financial, tax, or medical advice, and it is not a substitute for a qualified professional. The author is not a VA-accredited representative, claims agent, or attorney, and the Book does not prepare, present, or prosecute any claim — for help with your own claim, use a free VA-accredited Veterans Service Organization or county veterans service officer, or an accredited attorney or agent. Rates and rules change, usually every December 1, and some benefits vary by state. Always confirm your situation with VA (VA.gov), an accredited representative, or a qualified professional before acting. See our Disclaimer for full details.

5. Accuracy & no warranties

Every figure was carefully researched and reflects VA rates in effect from December 1, 2025 and rules as of October 2026 to the best of our knowledge, but laws, limits, rates, and amounts change. The Book and website are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy, completeness, merchantability, or fitness for a particular purpose. Always verify against the official sources cited.

6. No guarantees

We do not guarantee that you will qualify for any benefit, or receive any particular rating, amount, or result. Outcomes depend on your circumstances, current rules, and decisions made by VA and other government bodies.

7. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the author, publisher, and their affiliates will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive loss or damage — including loss of money, benefits, savings, or opportunity — arising from your use of, or reliance on, the Book or this website. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid for the Book. Nothing in these Terms excludes any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

8. Not affiliated with VA or any agency

This is an independent educational resource. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Defense, any branch of the armed forces, any Veterans Service Organization, or any other government agency. We receive no payment or commission from anyone for any benefit or service mentioned. All program names and forms mentioned are public information.

9. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The version posted on this website at the time you use it is the version that applies.

10. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the publisher is established, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, and the courts of that jurisdiction will have jurisdiction over any dispute, to the extent permitted by law.

11. Questions

Support for your purchase is handled through Gumroad, the platform that processes and delivers the book. For any question about your order, use the receipt or order page from your Gumroad purchase.
