Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 1, 2025
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines, this page discloses our affiliate relationships and how they may affect content on Survivorpedia.
What Are Affiliate Links?
Survivorpedia, owned and operated by Manamize LLC, participates in various affiliate marketing programs. This means that some of the links on our website are affiliate links. When you click on these links and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission from the retailer at no additional cost to you.
How Affiliate Links Work on This Site
When we review or recommend products in our articles, we often include links to where you can purchase those products. If those links are affiliate links, clicking on them and making a purchase generates a small referral fee for us. This commission comes from the retailer, not from you. The price you pay is the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the retailer's website.
Our Affiliate Partners
We participate in the following affiliate programs, among others:
- Amazon Associates Program: As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates.
- Various outdoor and survival gear retailer affiliate programs
- Other affiliate networks relevant to survival, outdoor, and preparedness products
Our Commitment to Honest Recommendations
We want to be completely transparent about how affiliate relationships work on this site:
- Honest Reviews: Our product recommendations are based on genuine field testing and experience. We will never recommend a product solely because it offers a higher commission.
- Editorial Independence: Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content. If a product is not worth recommending, we will not recommend it regardless of the affiliate commission.
- Disclosure in Articles: Articles containing affiliate links include a disclosure notice at the top of the article.
- No Extra Cost: Using our affiliate links never increases the price you pay for any product.
Why We Use Affiliate Links
Creating high-quality survival and preparedness content requires significant time and resources. Affiliate commissions help us cover the costs of running this website, purchasing gear for testing and review, and investing in better content and tools for our readers. Your support through affiliate purchases directly contributes to our ability to provide free, valuable content.
Identifying Affiliate Links
Articles that contain affiliate links are marked with a disclosure notice near the top of the article. While we strive to clearly identify all affiliate links, if you assume that any link on our site to a product or service could be an affiliate link, you will generally be correct.
Opting Out
If you prefer not to use our affiliate links, you are welcome to navigate directly to any retailer's website to make your purchase. We appreciate your readership regardless of whether you use our affiliate links.
Questions
If you have any questions about our affiliate relationships, please contact us. We are happy to provide additional information about any specific recommendation or affiliate partnership.
