The disclosure that follows is our attempt to fully comply with the
FTC’s policy that demands we be transparent about any and all affiliate
relations we may have on this website. In plain English you, the visitor
or customer, should assume that any and all links on this site are
affiliate links.
If you click on these links and go visit the
resulting site, a cookie will be set in your web browser that will cause
us to receive a commission “IF” you purchase a product on the other
end. This is a legitimate way to monetize and pay for the operation of
web sites and we gladly reveal our affiliate relationships to you.
In
addition we fully disclose that hyperlinks on this site are in most
cases shortened, and in some cases cloaked to hide long ugly links for
functionality and tracking purposes. We have nothing to hide and we are
proud of our relationship with the fine vendors, products and services
found on this site. Link tracking, shortening and cloaking is a very
common practice on all types of web sites.
Further, we do not
receive physical products or cash directly in exchange for any reviews
or posts you find on this site. No one has paid us to do reviews or
posts. We have to tell you that it is possible that our reviews and
posts are influenced by our affiliate relationships and may create a
conflict of interest.
We do not believe a conflict of interest
exists, but you, the visitor or customer, must decide by considering the
affiliate relationships and link techniques we have described.
Obviously we would like you to buy the service or products we write
about and we are influenced by that fact.
We avoid conflict by
only reviewing or posting about products and services we trust. We
strive to always give our honest opinions, findings, beliefs, or
experiences on topics or products we write about and promote.
Other
vendors may also pay to place advertising on our sites in the form of
banners, widgets, and hyperlinks. These are paid advertisements and
while we do our best to only allow quality products and services to be
advertised on our site, we are not responsible for claims or
testimonials made on paid advertising links.
The following
represents a more legally worded document but basically states the same
information presented in the English Translation above.
As
directed by the FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION, (see 16 CFR Part 255) – Guides
Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising, the
purpose of this policy is to establish any compensatory affiliation
between the site owner and affiliate networks such as Clickbank.com, and
any individual vendors they represent and that the site owner has
established an affiliate relationship.
This website may at times
accept forms of cash advertising, sponsorship, paid insertions or other
forms of affiliate compensation.
The compensation received may or
may not influence the advertising content, topics or posts made on this
site. That content, advertising space or post may not always be
identified as paid or sponsored content. Not all content is written or
presented for the sole purpose of receiving affiliate income.
The
owner(s) of this website is compensated through various affiliate
programs and some content presents opinions on products, services,
websites and various ther topics. Even though the owner(s) of this
website may receive affiliate compensation for reviews or
advertisements, we always give our honest opinions, findings, beliefs,
or experiences on those topics or products.
The views and
opinions expressed on this website are purely the website’s’ own. Any
product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product
or service should be verified with the manufacturer, provider or party
in question.
This website does contain some content which may or
may not present a conflict of interest. This content may not always be
immediately identified due to the nature of posting methods. When
possible every attempt will be made to identify advertising from general
non-advertising content.
