Agreement and access

Acceptance of Terms and eligibility.

These provisions explain who operates Verestly, the conditions for accessing the website, your responsibilities as a user, and how electronic communications are handled.

01

Acceptance of these Terms

These Terms of Use establish the conditions applicable to accessing and using the Verestly website, including its educational articles, financial tools, downloadable resources, newsletters, digital products, and related features.

Verestly is an independently operated personal finance education website managed by an individual based in Brazil. Verestly is not incorporated as a separate legal entity.

For purposes of these Terms, "Verestly," "we," "us," and "our" refer to the website and its individual operator, unless the context expressly indicates otherwise.

By accessing or using the website, you agree to comply with these Terms to the extent that they form an enforceable agreement under applicable law. A purchase or other transaction may require separate acceptance of applicable conditions.

Your agreement matters

Please review these Terms before using website features or purchasing digital products. If you disagree with the applicable conditions, you should refrain from the relevant activity.

Certain features and products may have additional conditions, such as product descriptions, license terms, refund policies, or checkout notices. These apply when properly disclosed and accepted, subject to applicable law.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits mandatory consumer rights or legal protections that cannot lawfully be waived.

02

Eligibility to use the website

Verestly provides general personal finance education primarily for adult readers. Access to publicly available educational content does not necessarily require creating an account or entering into a purchase agreement.

To purchase digital products or enter into a legally binding transaction, you must have the legal capacity required under the laws applicable to that transaction. Where permitted by law, a parent or legal guardian may act on behalf of a minor.

Individuals who have not reached the applicable age of legal capacity should use interactive or transactional features only with appropriate parental or guardian involvement, where required by law.

Legal capacity

Purchases and binding transactions require the legal capacity or appropriate authorization required by applicable law.

Lawful access

You must use the website and its services in a manner consistent with applicable laws and these Terms.

Accurate representation

Information provided for transactions, support requests, or account access must not be knowingly false or misleading.

Verestly may reasonably restrict access to particular features when necessary to address unlawful use, material violations of these Terms, security concerns, or eligibility requirements. Any restriction remains subject to applicable law and existing consumer rights.

03

Responsibility for your use

You are responsible for evaluating how general financial information applies to your individual circumstances and for making your own financial decisions.

You agree to use the website lawfully and not to interfere with its security, availability, technical operation, or the rights of other users.

When using calculators, planners, spreadsheets, and interactive tools, you should review any assumptions, estimated results, and information you provide before relying on the output.

  • Use reasonable care when reviewing general financial information before acting.
  • Verify significant financial, tax, investment, or legal decisions with appropriate authoritative sources or qualified professionals when necessary.
  • Protect your passwords, download links, account access information, and other confidential credentials.
  • Avoid submitting sensitive financial identifiers, banking credentials, or complete payment card details through general-purpose forms or public comments.
Protect sensitive information

Verestly does not require your banking password, Social Security number, tax identification number, or investment account login credentials to provide general educational content. Payment information should be entered only through the designated secure checkout process.

These responsibilities do not exclude or reduce any legal obligations owed by Verestly in connection with its website operations, digital products, data processing, or consumer transactions.

04

Electronic communications

When you contact Verestly, create an account, purchase a digital product, or submit a support request, you may receive electronic messages reasonably necessary for that interaction, subject to applicable law.

Such messages may include order confirmations, payment notifications, download instructions, account information, responses to inquiries, security notices, and legally required communications.

Browsing the website, submitting a contact form, or purchasing a digital product does not automatically constitute consent to receive promotional emails or subscribe to the Verestly Newsletter.

Marketing communications are sent only when permitted under applicable law, including when the appropriate consent or other valid authorization has been obtained. Newsletter subscriptions are managed through MailerLite or another disclosed email service provider.

Transactional and support emails

Order, account, download, support, and necessary service communications may be sent to the address you provide.

Website and policy notices

Important information about website features, policies, or service changes may also be displayed directly on Verestly.

Newsletter recipients may unsubscribe from promotional emails using the unsubscribe link provided in those messages. Unsubscribing from marketing communications does not necessarily prevent necessary transactional, security, or legally required messages relating to an existing account or purchase.

Personal information associated with subscriptions and electronic communications is processed as described in the Privacy Policy .

Content and website access

Website content and permitted use.

Verestly provides free educational content, interactive financial tools, downloadable resources, and paid digital products. This section explains how these materials may be accessed, used, and shared while respecting intellectual property rights, applicable licenses, and consumer protections.

Section 05

Educational purpose of the website

Verestly publishes articles, guides, explanations, newsletters, checklists, calculators, worksheets, and other resources intended to improve general understanding of personal finance.

Topics may include budgeting, saving, banking, credit, debt, taxes, insurance, investing, retirement, and financial planning. Educational content is prepared for general informational purposes and is not tailored to an individual user's circumstances.

Some resources are available free of charge. Others are offered as paid digital products through the Verestly Shop. Purchasing a digital product does not transform its educational content into personalized financial advice.

General education

Content explains financial concepts and possible approaches in plain language.

Independent decisions

You remain responsible for evaluating whether general information is appropriate for your circumstances.

Time-sensitive information

Rates, financial rules, laws, product conditions, and market information may change over time.

No professional-client relationship

Accessing Verestly, using its tools, subscribing to the newsletter, or purchasing educational resources does not by itself create a financial adviser-client, attorney-client, accountant-client, fiduciary, or similar professional advisory relationship. Consumer rights arising from purchases remain unaffected.

Section 06

Purchased digital products, including workbooks, planners, spreadsheets, dashboards, and templates, are governed by the license terms disclosed for the applicable product or purchase.

09
Copyright and ownership

Ownership of website content

Verestly is an independently operated website managed by an individual based in Brazil. It is not a separately incorporated legal entity.

Unless otherwise indicated, original content created by the individual operator for Verestly is owned by that operator, subject to applicable intellectual property laws and any relevant third-party rights.

Other materials displayed through Verestly may belong to contributors, photographers, software developers, publishers, technology providers, or other rights holders and may be used under applicable licenses or permissions.

Original visual works and third-party images used under applicable licenses.

Downloadable resources

Access to free content and purchased digital products is subject to the applicable permissions and licenses described in Section 06.

Intellectual property rights remain with their rightful holders.

Website access and product purchases grant only the applicable usage permissions. Statutory exceptions, lawful quotation, and other rights preserved by applicable law remain unaffected.

Brand identity

Trademarks, names, and branding

Verestly is the name used to identify this independently operated educational website. The Verestly name, logo, visual identity, original branding elements, and related identifiers may be protected by applicable intellectual property, trademark, or unfair competition laws.

Nothing in these Terms represents that the Verestly name or logo has obtained formal trademark registration in any particular country. Any applicable rights depend on the relevant facts and law.

Messages and contributed material

User submissions and feedback

Verestly may offer ways for visitors to submit questions, comments, corrections, feedback, product reviews, support requests, or other information through forms, email, or website features.

You retain any intellectual property rights you hold in original material you submit. Submitting information does not automatically transfer ownership of that material to Verestly or its individual operator.

When you send a private message, support request, correction, or similar communication, you authorize Verestly to access, store, and use that information as reasonably necessary to process the request, respond, maintain relevant records, and meet legal obligations, subject to the Privacy Policy.

If you voluntarily submit material specifically for public display, such as a comment or product review, you grant the website's individual operator a non-exclusive, royalty-free permission to reproduce, display, format, and reasonably moderate that material for the intended publication and related website operations.

By submitting material

You represent and agree that:

  • You own the material or have appropriate authorization to submit it.

Restrictions will be applied where reasonably appropriate and subject to applicable law. Relevant information may be retained or shared with competent authorities when legally permitted or required, consistent with applicable privacy obligations.

External platforms and commercial relationships

Third-party links, affiliate relationships, and services.

Verestly may reference independent financial providers, external resources, commercial offers, and third-party technologies. These provisions explain how external relationships work, how our own digital products differ from third-party offers, and which responsibilities apply.

13
External destinations

Third-party websites and links

Verestly may include links to websites, financial institutions, applications, documents, educational resources, products, and services operated independently by third parties.

These links may be provided for informational purposes, attribution, research, comparisons, convenience, or access to products and services discussed in our content.

Independent third parties generally determine the content, availability, security practices, pricing, policies, and operation of their own services. Verestly does not control those independent operations.

However, references to third parties do not exclude responsibilities that Verestly may have under applicable law for its own statements, conduct, commercial relationships, or products sold directly through its website.

Review external terms before proceeding.

When you interact directly with an independent provider, its terms, privacy notices, eligibility rules, and security practices generally apply to that interaction, subject to applicable law.

14
Compensated relationships

Affiliate links and referral compensation

Certain links or recommendations on Verestly may involve affiliate, referral, advertising, sponsorship, or other commercial relationships. When a qualifying action occurs, the website's operator may receive compensation from a third party.

Compensation may include commissions, referral payments, fixed fees, advertising revenue, or other commercial benefits, depending on the particular arrangement.

A link is not necessarily an affiliate link simply because it points to an external website. Educational references and links to official sources may be provided without compensation.

01 You read our content

A recommendation may contain a disclosed commercial link.

02 You visit the provider

You independently review the provider's current offer.

03 Compensation may occur

A qualifying transaction may generate a referral payment.

Our disclosure principles

Commercial relationships should be disclosed clearly.

  • Material commercial relationships should be disclosed clearly in the relevant content.
  • Affiliate disclosures should appear close enough to the relevant recommendations to be readily noticed.
  • Compensation may affect which products are featured, and the website does not necessarily review every available option.
  • A paid relationship does not establish that a product is suitable for every reader.
  • Readers should independently consider rates, fees, risks, eligibility, and alternatives.

The presence of this general disclosure does not replace a clear, prominent disclosure within content containing material affiliate or sponsored relationships.

15
Financial offers and providers

Products, rates, terms, and eligibility

Verestly does not guarantee qualification, approval, particular rates, returns, or benefits associated with independent third-party financial offers.

Products sold directly through the Verestly Shop, including digital workbooks, spreadsheets, planners, and other downloadable educational materials, are distinct from independent third-party financial products.

Purchases made directly from Verestly are governed by the applicable product description, disclosed license and purchase conditions, the Refund & Returns Policy , and mandatory consumer protection laws. A third-party disclaimer does not remove Verestly's legal obligations for its own transactions.

16
Technology and promotional content

Advertising, embedded tools, and integrations

Verestly provides its own educational tools and may use third-party technologies to support website hosting, payments, analytics, email communications, downloadable resources, and other features.

Depending on the features actually enabled, the website may also display sponsored content, advertisements, embedded media, or external integrations.

Some external technologies may collect or process information according to their functions and the applicable privacy notices. Cookies or similar technologies requiring consent will be subject to applicable consent requirements.

01
Advertising and sponsored content

When used, commercial placements and material sponsorships should be appropriately disclosed.

02
Embedded media

04
Forms and service integrations

Email, checkout, support, and download features may involve contracted technology providers.

Financial tool results may depend on estimates and assumptions.

Calculator outputs, worksheet results, projections, and comparisons depend on the formulas, assumptions, and information used. They should not be interpreted as personalized financial advice or guarantees of future outcomes.

For more information about personal data processing, cookies, service providers, and applicable privacy rights, please review our Privacy Policy .

Verestly may update, replace, or discontinue website integrations for legitimate operational, security, or legal reasons. Such changes remain subject to applicable law and any obligations concerning products or services already purchased.

Independent evaluation

A link or mention does not guarantee that an offer is right for you.

Verify the current terms of external financial products, consider your circumstances, and seek qualified professional guidance when appropriate. Purchases made directly from Verestly remain subject to applicable consumer protections.

Important legal limitations

Disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification.

These provisions explain the educational nature of Verestly, the limitations of financial information, website availability, and the responsibilities associated with using our content, tools, and services.
