Terms of Use - Truckee Financial Group
Truckee Financial Group (“Truckee Financial Group,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website located at https://truckeefinancialgroup.com (the “Site”). The Site provides information about life insurance, annuities, tax-free retirement concepts, tax advisory services, Social Security planning, long-term care, and related financial education, and it allows users to request quotes, connect with a licensed professional, and access calculators, articles, and other resources. By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms of Use (“Terms”). If you do not agree, you should not use the site.
Who You Are and Who We Are
In these Terms, “you” and “your” mean any person who accesses or uses the Site. “We,” “our,” and “us” mean Truckee Financial Group, an independent insurance agency that works with multiple insurance carriers and is licensed to sell insurance in certain U.S. states. We do not underwrite insurance policies. Any policy you buy after contacting us is issued by a third-party insurance carrier, which has its own terms and conditions.
What the Site Does and Does Not Do
The Site provides general information and education about insurance and retirement topics, along with tools that help you compare options and request quotes. Information on the Site does not replace personalized advice from a licensed insurance agent, financial planner, tax professional, or attorney.
The information and examples on the Site serve informational and illustrative purposes only and do not constitute insurance, financial, tax, or legal advice. Services, product availability, and pricing vary by state and depend on the rules and underwriting of each insurance carrier.
Acceptance of These Terms
By visiting the Site, submitting any form, or requesting any information through the Site, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old, have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms, and agree to comply with them and with all applicable laws. If you use the Site on behalf of another person or entity, you represent that you have authority to do so and that person or entity accepts these Terms.

Insurance Carriers, Quotes, and Eligibility
Truckee Financial Group acts as an independent agency and does not guarantee that any specific company, policy, rate, or coverage will be offered or approved. We work with several insurers, including carriers listed on the Site, to present potential options that may align with your situation.
Any quote shown on the Site or provided by us is non-binding and subject to change after the insurance carrier reviews a complete application and applies its underwriting rules. Availability of products, coverage terms, waiting periods, and medical requirements depend on the insurer and the rules that apply in the state where you live.
