Terms & Disclaimers
Last Updated: June 20261. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using the Gulf Coast Legacy Advisors website (the "Site") or engaging with any content, materials, or communications provided by Gulf Coast Legacy Advisors ("we," "us," or "our"), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms & Disclaimers. If you do not agree with any portion of these terms, please discontinue your use of the Site immediately.
We reserve the right to update or modify these terms at any time without prior notice. Changes take effect upon posting to the Site. Continued use of the Site after any modification constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.
2. Not a Licensed Investment Advisor
Gulf Coast Legacy Advisors and its principal, Gustavo Coutin, operate as a financial strategist and insurance professional licensed in the State of Florida. Gulf Coast Legacy Advisors is not a registered investment advisor, broker-dealer, or securities firm. We do not manage investment portfolios, provide securities recommendations, or offer investment advisory services as defined under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 or applicable Florida law.
Our services focus on life protection planning, annuity solutions, and legacy financial strategies — not the purchase, sale, or management of securities. If you require investment advisory services, you should consult a duly registered investment advisor.
3. Educational Purposes Only — Not Financial Advice
All content published on this Site — including articles, blog posts, guides, videos, social media content, and any other materials — is provided for general educational and informational purposes only. Nothing on this Site constitutes, or should be construed as, personalized financial advice, investment advice, tax advice, legal advice, or any other professional advisory service.
Every individual's financial situation is unique. Before making any financial decision, including the purchase of any insurance or annuity product, you are strongly encouraged to consult with qualified professionals — including licensed financial advisors, tax professionals, and legal counsel — who can assess your specific circumstances.
The information provided on this Site does not take into account your personal financial objectives, situation, needs, or risk tolerance. Reliance on any information provided on this Site is solely at your own risk.
4. Life Protection & Annuity Products
Life protection plans and annuity products discussed or referenced on this Site are insurance products, not investment products. The following important disclosures apply:
- Underwriting approval required: All life insurance and annuity products are subject to underwriting review and approval by the issuing insurance carrier. Approval is not guaranteed and is based on individual health, age, and other qualifying factors determined by the carrier.
- State availability: Products and their features may vary by state and may not be available in all states. Availability is subject to each carrier's licensing and regulatory status in your state of residence.
- Product suitability: Not all products are suitable for every individual. A thorough needs analysis and suitability review will be conducted before any product recommendation is made.
- Carrier backing: Annuity and life insurance products are backed by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance carrier, not by any government agency or deposit insurance fund.
5. No Guarantee of Results
Any examples, case studies, illustrations, or projections presented on this Site are hypothetical in nature and are intended solely for illustrative purposes. Past performance does not guarantee future results. No representation is made that any strategy, product, or approach described on this Site will achieve specific outcomes, returns, or financial goals.
Actual results will vary based on individual circumstances, product terms, carrier performance, market conditions, tax laws, and other factors outside our control. You should not rely on any illustration or projection as a prediction of future performance.
