Legal

Terms of use

These terms cover your use of ffeba.com, DailyFED, the calculators, membership and the free match. In short: the site is general education, not advice; FFEBA does not guarantee any outcome; professionals you meet are independent; and you agree to use the site lawfully.

Effective date:. By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use it.

Education, not advice

Everything on this site is general education about federal employee benefits. It is not financial, investment, insurance, legal or tax advice, and it does not consider your circumstances. FFEBA is not a broker-dealer, registered investment adviser, insurance agency, or law or tax firm. Confirm current rules with your agency or OPM before you act.

Calculators and estimates

Calculators produce educational estimates on the assumptions you enter, using published rules and figures with their dates. They are not projections, promises or official computations. We do not guarantee that any estimate matches what OPM, the TSP or your agency will pay.

No guarantee of accuracy or availability

We work to keep figures current and cite their sources and dates, but rules change and errors happen. The site is provided "as is."

Matching and independent professionals

The free match introduces you to a Federal Retirement Consultant (FRC), an independent professional who is not an employee or agent of FFEBA. Any engagement, product or service you choose is solely between you and that professional. You are never obligated to work with or buy from anyone we introduce. How FFEBA is funded is explained in our disclosures.

Your account

Membership is free. You sign in with a single-use link sent to your email. Keep access to your email secure, because anyone who can open it can sign in. You may close your account at any time. We may suspend accounts used to misuse the site.

Acceptable use

Do not misuse the site: no scraping that burdens it, no attempts to access other accounts or systems, no false information in forms, and no use of our content to suggest it comes from a government agency or is personalized advice.

Content and trademarks

The FFEBA and DailyFED names, the FRC mark, and this site's original text, design and code belong to the Federation of Federal Employee Benefit Advocates LLC. You may read and share pages for personal, non-commercial use with a link back. Government data reproduced here is public-domain material attributed to its source.

We link to government sources, the FRC designation site, scheduling and other services for your convenience. We are not responsible for their content or practices.

Changes

We may update these terms and will post the new version here with a new effective date.
