Material Connections and Compensation Disclosure Policy

You should always conduct your own investigation (perform due diligence) before buying products or services from anyone via the internet. This includes products and services sold on this website and all other websites.

Material Connection

Unless otherwise expressly stated, you should assume that all references to products and services on our website are made because connections exist between the website’s owner(s) (“Owner”) and the providers of the mentioned products and services (“Provider”).

Good Faith Recommendations

The Owner recommends products and services on our website are based in part on a good faith belief that the purchase of such products or services will help purchasers in general. We have this good faith belief because (a) we have tried the product or service mentioned prior to recommending it or (b) we have considered the reputation of the Provider and made the decision to recommend the Provider’s products or services based on our understanding of the Provider’s history of providing these or other products or services. The representations made by us about products and services reflect our opinion based upon the facts known to us at the time a product or service is mentioned on our website.

Potential Bias and Due Diligence

Our opinion about a product or service may be formed or partially formed (consciously or subconsciously) based on the fact that we have been compensated or will be compensated because of any business relationship with the Providers.

In some instances, we and a Provider will have a business or personal relationship that does not involve us receiving compensation related to products and services mentioned on our website. However, the nature of the relationship may be sufficient to establish a material connection between us and the Provider.

Because there may be a material connection between us and Providers of products or services mentioned on our website, you should always assume that we may be biased because of our relationship with a Provider and/or because we have received or will receive something of value from a Provider.

Please perform your own due diligence before purchasing a product or service mentioned on our website (or any other website).

Compensation

The type of compensation received by us may vary. In some instances, we may receive complimentary products, services, or money from a Provider prior to mentioning the Provider’s products or services on our website.

In other instances, we may receive a monetary commission or non-monetary compensation when you take action based on the content of our website. This includes, but is not limited to, when you purchase a product or service from a Provider after clicking on an affiliate link on our website.

Our website may contain hypertext links to websites and other information created and maintained by other individuals and organizations. These links are only provided for your convenience. We do not control or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, relevance, or timeliness of any information or privacy policies posted on these linked websites.

Unless otherwise expressly stated by us, hyperlinks to particular items do not reflect their importance, and are not an endorsement of the individuals or organizations sponsoring the websites, the views expressed on the websites, or the products or services offered on the websites.

We permit links to our website if they do not imply an endorsement by, or affiliation with, our website absent written consent. If we operate an affiliate program, our affiliates may link to our website pursuant to the terms and conditions of our affiliate program agreement with them.
