Product Startup may earn revenue from advertising, sponsorships, affiliate links, referral arrangements, paid collaborations, consulting relationships, and other commercial partnerships. This Affiliate & Sponsorship Disclosure explains how we approach those relationships.
1. Affiliate Links and Referral Compensation
Some links may be affiliate or referral links. If you click one and make a purchase, register, or complete another qualifying action, Product Startup may receive a commission, fee, credit, or other benefit. Unless stated otherwise, using an affiliate link generally does not increase the price you pay, although prices and terms are controlled by the third-party provider.
2. Sponsorships, Advertising, and Provided Products
We may receive money, free or discounted products or services, travel, event access, or other benefits in connection with content. We may also publish advertising or sponsored segments. When a material relationship could affect how a reasonable person evaluates the content, we aim to disclose it clearly and close to the relevant recommendation, review, link, or content. This page supplements, rather than replaces, those specific disclosures.
3. Editorial Independence
Compensation does not guarantee positive coverage, a favourable opinion, or any particular editorial conclusion. We aim to distinguish advertising or sponsored material from independent editorial content and to communicate our genuine experience or opinion. A commercial relationship may influence the topics, products, or guests selected for coverage, and the applicable disclosure is intended to provide that context.
4. No Guarantee or Automatic Endorsement
A link, advertisement, guest appearance, sponsorship, mention, or commercial relationship is not automatically an endorsement or guarantee by Product Startup. Products, services, pricing, availability, claims, warranties, and support are controlled by the relevant provider. You should conduct your own research and make decisions appropriate to your needs.
5. Guests, Clients, and Business Interests
A guest or featured company may be a current or former client, partner, supplier, investor, affiliate, sponsor, or other business contact. Where that relationship is material to an endorsement or recommendation, we aim to disclose it. Product Startup may discuss companies or industries in which it or its principals have a financial or commercial interest.
6. Testimonials and Results
Testimonials and examples reflect individual experiences. They are not promises or guarantees that others will obtain the same or similar results.
7. Changes and Contact
Commercial relationships and platform rules change. We may update this Disclosure from time to time. Questions about a relationship or disclosure may be sent to privacy@productstartup.com.
