Rights and expectations
Licensing and results
What license is included?
Your purchase includes a personal-use license for the original buyer. You may download, read, print, and use the PDF for your own learning or internal business work.
What am I not allowed to do?
You may not resell, share, sublicense, redistribute, edit, rebrand, give away, publish, or claim authorship of the PDF.
Does purchasing guarantee income or business results?
No. The product provides information and a practical process. Outcomes depend on factors such as your idea, market, execution, consistency and effort. PDF Street does not guarantee earnings or a specific result.
What is the refund policy?
Because the product is delivered digitally, sales are final except for the limited circumstances stated in the published Refund & Licensing Policy, such as an unresolved corrupted file, a materially inaccurate description or a duplicate charge.
Will more products be added?
Yes, but PDF Street lists products only when they are finished and available. The $17 Machine is currently the live product; future releases will be added to the Shop as they are completed.
