Affiliate Disclosure & Review Independence
This page explains how Jivaro may use affiliate links, referral links, commission-based links, product links, platform links, and other compensated relationships across its articles, reviews, guides, apps, tools, store pages, newsletters, and other content.
Jivaro may earn a commission, referral fee, credit, discount, or other benefit when readers click certain links, sign up for services, subscribe, buy products, or take other qualifying actions. Affiliate compensation does not buy Jivaro’s conclusions, rankings, positive reviews, fake testing, or undisclosed influence.
Jivaro may earn from purchases, signups, subscriptions, referrals, or other qualifying actions.
Affiliate relationships should not determine conclusions, rankings, or criticism.
Jivaro may recommend products, tools, or services that do not pay commissions.
Health, finance, investing, tax, debt, and insurance content require additional care.
Scope of this disclosure
This disclosure applies to any Jivaro link or relationship where Jivaro may receive a commission, referral fee, bounty, credit, discount, free access, sponsored access, non-cash benefit, or other material benefit.
Affiliate relationships may appear in articles, reviews, comparison pages, buyer guides, finance content, technology content, health-related product discussions, app pages, tool pages, store pages, newsletters, social posts, emails, or other Jivaro-controlled content.
Core standard
Affiliate income may support Jivaro, but it should not control what Jivaro says, recommends, criticizes, ranks, reviews, or corrects.
Affiliate and referral relationships this may include
Affiliate relationships can take many forms. This disclosure is intended to cover current and future affiliate or referral arrangements, including but not limited to the examples below.

Where affiliate disclosures appear
Sitewide disclosure
This page serves as Jivaro’s sitewide Affiliate Disclosure and explains that some links across Jivaro may be affiliate, referral, or otherwise compensated links.
Trust Center access
Jivaro links to this Affiliate Disclosure through its Trust Center and related policy pages so readers can review how affiliate relationships are handled.
Additional notices when needed
Jivaro may add additional disclosures to specific pages, articles, reviews, newsletters, product pages, buttons, or links when required by law, platform rules, program terms, or practical context.
Plain-language disclosure
Disclosure language may state that some links are affiliate or referral links, that Jivaro may earn a commission, that affiliate links help support Jivaro, and that commissions do not determine conclusions.
Example disclosure language
Jivaro may earn a commission if you buy or sign up through certain links. Some links may be affiliate or referral links. Affiliate links help support Jivaro, but commissions do not determine our conclusions.
Affiliate relationships and editorial independence
Rankings are not for sale
Affiliate relationships should not determine rankings, conclusions, review scores, recommendations, criticism, or whether a product is included.
Commercial availability is not the conclusion
Affiliate availability may affect whether Jivaro can link to a product commercially, but it should not determine whether the product is useful, safe, appropriate, or worth recommending.
Non-affiliate products may be recommended
Jivaro may recommend a product, service, platform, tool, or resource even if Jivaro earns nothing from it.
Affiliate products may still be criticized
Jivaro may criticize, downgrade, warn against, or refuse to recommend a product even if it has an affiliate program.
Commission does not guarantee praise
Jivaro may earn from a product it criticizes, and may decline money from a product it recommends.
Reader value comes first
Recommendations should be based on usefulness, evidence, quality, relevance, risks, limitations, price, fit, alternatives, and reader needs.
Health and finance affiliate standards
Health and finance topics require extra caution because weak, exaggerated, or commercially driven claims may affect important personal decisions.
Extra caution for high-trust topics
Jivaro applies extra caution to affiliate links involving health, supplements, medical topics, finance, investing, tax, debt, insurance, credit, or other high-trust areas.
Evidence and risk still matter
Affiliate relationships should not override evidence quality, risk, suitability, uncertainty, contraindications, costs, fees, conflicts of interest, or reader safety.
No cure or treatment implication
Health and supplement links should not imply diagnosis, treatment, cure, prevention, guaranteed benefit, or medical suitability for a particular person.
No guaranteed returns
Finance links should not imply guaranteed returns, risk-free investing, personalized financial advice, tax advice, debt relief certainty, or guaranteed income.
Disclaimers still apply
Jivaro’s Medical Disclaimer, Financial Disclaimer, Editorial Policy, Research Standards, and related Trust Center pages still apply to affiliate-linked health and finance content.
Some categories may be rejected
Jivaro may reject health, finance, supplement, investment, credit, debt, or insurance affiliate relationships that conflict with its standards or reader-trust obligations.
Reviews, comparisons, and recommendations
Affiliate-linked reviews
Reviews, comparisons, rankings, and buying guides may contain affiliate links. Those links may support Jivaro, but they should not determine the final judgment.
Hands-on vs. research-based review
Jivaro should distinguish hands-on testing from research-based reviews, documentation review, specification analysis, user-report analysis, or editorial commentary.
No fake testing
Jivaro should not claim to have tested a product, app, service, platform, or tool if it has not.
No paid positive reviews
Affiliate compensation, free access, discounted products, referral payments, or other benefits should not buy positive reviews, inflated claims, or suppression of drawbacks.
Free or discounted access
Free products, discounted services, free trials, extended access, or sponsored access should be disclosed when relevant to a review or recommendation.
Limitations and fit
Reviews should include meaningful limitations, drawbacks, tradeoffs, risks, and who a product, platform, service, or tool may not be for.
Updates
Jivaro may update reviews when pricing, features, availability, policies, safety concerns, affiliate relationships, or product quality changes.
Restricted or rejected affiliate categories
Jivaro may reject or remove affiliate relationships that conflict with editorial standards, research standards, reader trust, legal obligations, or the site’s broader mission.
Scams and deceptive offers
Jivaro may reject scams, misleading offers, fake reviews, deceptive pricing, undisclosed terms, or products that rely on misleading claims.
Get-rich-quick schemes
Jivaro may reject unrealistic trading, investing, passive-income, debt, business, side-hustle, crypto, or “guaranteed profit” offers.
Miracle cures and misleading health products
Jivaro may reject miracle cures, misleading supplement claims, unproven medical treatments, unsafe health claims, or products that discourage appropriate medical care.
High-risk crypto and pump-and-dump promotions
Jivaro may reject pump-and-dump promotions, high-risk crypto schemes, unregistered investment products, or financial offers that mislead users about risk.
Gambling and adult content
Jivaro may reject gambling, casino products, adult content, or other categories that do not fit Jivaro’s standards or audience.
Harmful or abusive products
Jivaro may reject tobacco, nicotine, vape products, dangerous weapons, malware, spyware, deceptive tracking, abusive software, or products that create unacceptable risk.
Reader cost and commissions
In many affiliate programs, the price a reader pays is not increased because Jivaro earns a commission. However, pricing, discounts, subscription terms, shipping, fees, taxes, cancellation rules, and availability are controlled by the merchant or service provider, not by Jivaro.
Readers should review the seller’s current terms, price, refund policy, subscription details, privacy policy, and product information before purchasing, signing up, or relying on a recommendation.
No purchase required
Readers are never required to use Jivaro’s affiliate links. They can visit merchants, platforms, or product pages directly if they prefer.
Reporting disclosure issues
Missing disclosures
Readers can report missing, unclear, outdated, or insufficient affiliate disclosures.
Misleading affiliate language
Readers can report affiliate language that appears misleading, exaggerated, hidden, or inconsistent with this disclosure.
Suspicious recommendations
Readers can report recommendations that appear to be driven by compensation rather than usefulness, evidence, quality, or reader value.
Link questions
Readers can ask whether a link is affiliate, referral, sponsored, compensated, or otherwise commercially connected.
Disclosure changes
Jivaro may add, clarify, correct, move, update, or remove disclosures when needed.
Affiliate removal
Jivaro may remove affiliate links, change recommendations, or end affiliate relationships that conflict with its standards.
How to report
Readers can report affiliate disclosure concerns through the Contact page or Corrections Policy process.
Updates to this disclosure
Jivaro may update this Affiliate Disclosure as affiliate programs, referral relationships, review practices, monetization methods, store products, newsletters, tools, or legal requirements change. The goal is to keep affiliate relationships understandable while protecting editorial independence and reader trust.
