Effective Date: January 1, 2025
Last Updated: September 18, 2026
Welcome to OakuFinancials.com (the “Website”), operated by Oaku Financials LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Oaku Financials,” “Oaku,” “we,” “our,” or “us”).
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Website and the information, educational materials, digital products, resources, tools, communications, and other content made available through it.
By accessing or using this Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree with them, please discontinue use of the Website.
These Terms should be read together with Oaku’s Privacy Policy, Copyright & Intellectual Property Policy, Disclosures, and any separate engagement, purchase, subscription, licensing, or other agreement applicable to a particular Oaku product or service.

The precise scope of any service provided to you is governed by the applicable engagement agreement or other written agreement, not merely by information appearing on this Website.
2. EDUCATIONAL INFORMATION — NOT INDIVIDUALIZED PROFESSIONAL ADVICE
Unless expressly provided under a separate written engagement, information available through this Website is provided for general informational and educational purposes.
Website content does not, by itself, constitute individualized:
Legal advice
Tax-return preparation
Accounting advice
Bookkeeping services
Investment advice
Securities recommendations
Insurance advice
Financial-planning advice
Cybersecurity advice
Other regulated professional advice
Tax, legal, financial, investment, and digital-asset circumstances vary substantially among individuals and businesses.
You should consult appropriately qualified professionals concerning your particular circumstances before acting on information provided through the Website.
3. NO PROFESSIONAL OR CLIENT RELATIONSHIP FROM WEBSITE USE
Visiting the Website, downloading a resource, subscribing to Oaku communications, attending an educational event, submitting a contact form, or scheduling a Discovery Call does not by itself create an advisor-client, accountant-client, attorney-client, fiduciary, investment-adviser, or other professional relationship.
A professional relationship with Oaku begins only when Oaku and the client have agreed to an applicable engagement and any required agreement has been accepted or executed.
A relationship with an independent professional introduced through Oaku is governed separately by that professional’s engagement terms.
4. DISCOVERY CALLS
Oaku may offer an introductory Discovery Call to help determine whether Oaku’s services may be relevant to a prospective client’s needs.
A Discovery Call is preliminary in nature.
Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, it is not intended to provide comprehensive tax, legal, investment, accounting, financial, cybersecurity, or other professional advice.
Information discussed during a Discovery Call should not be relied upon as a substitute for a formal professional engagement or individualized analysis.
5. DIGITAL ASSETS AND CRYPTOCURRENCY
Digital assets, cryptocurrencies, blockchain-based products, DeFi protocols, tokenized assets, staking arrangements, smart contracts, wallets, bridges, exchanges, and related technologies can involve substantial and evolving risks.
Those risks may include:
Market volatility
Loss of principal
Liquidity risk
Cybersecurity attacks
Fraud and scams
Loss of credentials or private keys
Smart-contract vulnerabilities
Protocol failures
Counterparty failures
Custody risk
Technology failures
Regulatory changes
Tax consequences
Operational failures
Regulators continue to caution that crypto-asset activities can involve significant risk and that investor protections may differ depending upon the asset, intermediary, and activity involved.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
No Website content should be interpreted as a guarantee that a particular cryptocurrency, digital asset, investment, tax strategy, business strategy, or technology will produce a particular outcome.
6. NO CUSTODY OF DIGITAL ASSETS
Unless expressly provided under a separate written agreement and legally permitted, Oaku does not take custody or control of your cryptocurrency or other digital assets.
Oaku will never request your wallet seed phrase, private key, or exchange password through this Website.
Do not provide these credentials to Oaku or anyone claiming to represent Oaku.
The SEC similarly advises crypto users never to share private keys or seed phrases.
7. TAX INFORMATION
Tax laws, regulations, administrative guidance, reporting requirements, forms, interpretations, and enforcement practices can change.
Information on the Website reflects information available when the applicable content was prepared or updated and may subsequently become outdated.
Tax consequences depend on individual facts and circumstances.
Oaku therefore does not warrant that general educational tax content is appropriate for your individual situation.
Where tax-return preparation, legal opinions, attest services, or other services requiring particular professional qualifications are needed, those services should be performed by appropriately qualified professionals.
8. PROFESSIONAL COLLABORATION
Oaku believes complex financial and digital-asset matters may benefit from collaboration among professionals with different areas of expertise.
With appropriate authorization, Oaku may work with a client’s existing professional team or introduce independent professionals.
However, independent professionals are responsible for the services they individually provide.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, the presence of a professional or organization on the Website does not establish an employment relationship, partnership, joint venture, agency relationship, or guarantee by Oaku concerning that party’s services.
9. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND RESOURCES
The Website may provide access or links to third-party:
Professionals
Educational organizations
Software
Exchanges
Wallets
Technology providers
Publications
Websites
Services
Products
Third parties operate independently and may have their own terms, privacy policies, security practices, fees, eligibility requirements, and risks.
A link, reference, collaboration, or introduction does not necessarily constitute an endorsement or guarantee.
You are responsible for evaluating third-party products and services before using them.
10. AFFILIATE AND COMMERCIAL RELATIONSHIPS
Oaku may participate in affiliate, referral, sponsorship, licensing, advertising, or other commercial arrangements with selected organizations.
Where required, Oaku will seek to disclose material relationships appropriately.
A commercial relationship does not alter your responsibility to independently determine whether a third-party product or service is appropriate for you.
Material disclosures should be placed sufficiently close to relevant claims or recommendations rather than relying solely on a general legal page.
FTC guidance emphasizes that disclosures needed to prevent deception should be clear and conspicuous and not buried where consumers are unlikely to notice them.
11. PRODUCTS, COURSES AND DIGITAL CONTENT
Oaku may sell or provide:
eBooks
Whitepapers
Infographics
Reports
Checklists
Templates
Workbooks
Courses
Masterclasses
Videos

15. PAYMENTS AND PRICING
Prices for Oaku products and services may change from time to time.

FTC rules and guidance require covered pricing disclosures to be presented clearly and conspicuously in applicable transactions.

Refund and cancellation rights may differ depending upon the product or service purchased.

Testimonials, client experiences, case studies, hypothetical examples, projections, illustrations, and educational scenarios appearing on the Website are provided for informational purposes.
