Affiliate Disclosure for AD News Live
Last Updated: August 20, 2025
1. Our Commitment to Transparency
At AD News Live, our primary commitment is to our readers. Trust, integrity, and transparency are the cornerstones of our work. To support our mission of providing high-quality, free-to-access news and content, we participate in various affiliate marketing programs.
This disclosure is intended to be open and honest about these relationships and to explain how we earn revenue through our content. Our participation in these programs is done in full compliance with the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) guidelines.
2. What is an Affiliate Link?
Throughout our site, you may encounter hyperlinks that are "affiliate links." These are special tracking links that, when you click on them and make a purchase from the linked retailer (like Amazon or others), we may receive a small commission.
Crucially, this comes at no additional cost to you. The price you pay for the product or service is the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the vendor's website. These commissions are a way for retailers to thank us for referring valuable customers to them.
3. How and Why We Use Affiliate Links
The revenue generated from affiliate commissions helps us fund our journalism, pay our writers and editors, and cover the technical costs of running a modern news website. It allows us to keep our primary content free and accessible to everyone.
Our editorial team may include affiliate links in articles where we recommend or mention products and services. These links are always chosen based on their relevance to the content and our belief that they will be of value to you. We place links within our content in categories such as technology, beauty and fashion, sports, and more, where we believe a product or service aligns with the topic.
4. Editorial Integrity and Independence
Our editorial independence is paramount.
The presence of an affiliate link does not influence our editorial decisions, the topics we cover, or the opinions expressed in our articles. Our reviews, recommendations, and news coverage are based on thorough research, analysis, and the honest opinions of our editorial team.
We do not accept payment to guarantee positive reviews. Our primary goal is to provide accurate, unbiased information to help you make informed decisions. The trust of our readers will always be more important than any potential commission.
5. Amazon Associates Program Disclosure
AD News Live is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
6. Contact Us
Your trust is essential to us. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this affiliate disclosure or our practices, please do not hesitate to contact us.
