FTC Disclosure Compliance Rules

​

In 2015, the Federal Trade Commission released their new rules for Disclosure Compliance.

​

These rules are set in place to ensure that readers or viewers of web media are aware if the blogger or publisher is sponsored, endorsed, or partnered with a different company. The readers need to know if the content publisher is making money by sharing a link or product.

​

In compliance with the FTC guidelines, please assume the following about links and posts on this site:

​

Any/all of the links on 10beasts.com are affiliate links for which I receive a small compensation from sales of certain items.

​

What Are Affiliate Links?

Purchases are made on external affiliate company websites: when a reader clicks on an affiliate link located on PetiluZ.com to purchase an item, the reader buys the item from the seller directly (not from PetiluZ.com).

​

Amazon and/or other companies pay PetiluZ.com a small commission or other compensation for helping to bring customers to their website.

​

Prices are exactly the same for readers whether they purchase is through an affiliate link or a non-affiliate link. Clicking an affiliate link and clicking a non-affiliate link does not change the price or anything else for the visitor.

​

PetiluZ.com uses one main type of affiliate program:

​

​

1. Amazon affiliate links.

 

PetiluZ.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for website owners to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites, as well as to other websites that may be affiliated with Amazon Service LLC Associates Program.

​

If you click a product affiliate link and buy the product, then I will get a percentage of the sale or some other type of compensation.

​

Again, prices are not different if you use these affiliate links. You will not pay more by clicking through to the link. These links are not “pay per click.”

​

What about sponsored content?

​

I do not write sponsored posts. I want to provide authentic, un-biased information. However, if a company would like to publish sponsored content on PetiluZ.com, I will disclose this clearly in the beginning of the post.

​

The bottom line is that I only recommend products I use myself or that I would recommend to family and friends.

​

Your purchase helps support my research efforts.

 

Thank you very, very much! I appreciate you!
