Terms & Conditions
WHO THIS IS FOR
This site was built by a combat vet for people documenting real damage from real service. If you're here to exaggerate, buy a rating you didn't earn, or get coached on what to say — fuck off, close the tab, the sharks are that way. If the job broke something in you — in combat, on a flight deck or a flight line, overseas, or across twenty years — you're in the right place. Especially if your first instinct is that you don't deserve to be. Document your real worst day. That's how you and your family get the benefits you deserve.
1. Data Processing and AI (xAI API)
Your interview answers are sent to the xAI API to draft a study guide. Our server doesn't store or log them, and we don't use them to train models. Your answers stay saved in your own browser until you clear them.
2. Not a Veterans Service Organization (VSO)
DBQprep is an administrative organization and educational tool. We are not an accredited Veterans Service Organization (VSO), claims agent, or attorney. We do not file claims on your behalf, represent you before the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), or possess any special access to VA systems.
3. No Medical or Legal Advice
The information provided on this site does not constitute medical or legal advice. We streamline standard administrative paperwork; we do not diagnose conditions or prescribe medical treatments. Always consult with a qualified healthcare provider for medical issues and an accredited representative for legal advice.
4. No Guarantee of VA Outcomes
The VA relies on its own examiners, adjudicators, and criteria to determine disability percentages. Using DBQprep to organize your records does not guarantee a specific disability rating, a service-connection approval, or any financial outcome.
5. Acceptable Use
DBQprep is provided for individual veterans navigating their own claims. You agree not to use this site to generate fraudulent claims, automate submissions, scrape data, or commercialize the outputs. Claim sharks and unaccredited consulting groups are strictly prohibited from using this platform to service clients.
6. Intellectual Property
The DBQprep site, code, design, and original written content are owned by the operator of DBQprep. However, the blank VA forms, DBQs, and rating schedule criteria referenced on this site are public government domain.
7. Limitation of Liability
Your use of this free service is at your own risk. DBQprep and its creators are not liable for any denied claims, lost benefits, missed deadlines, or damages resulting from the use or inability to use this site. The tool is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind.
8. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
