DISCLOSURE

Comment Policy

I write my posts with love and understanding and I expect my readers to do the same when they comment. That doesn’t mean we all need to agree, but we do need to disagree respectfully. I love thoughtful conversations!

Disclosure Policy

In 2009, the Federal Trade Commission {FTC} revised their guidelines for bloggers when it comes to endorsements and testimonials. They wanted to protect the public from any intentionally misleading advertising that has been paid for by a group or company. This blog is a source of income and may occasionally have endorsements or testimonials, so I wanted to disclose the following to my readers:

  • This blog is a source of income, so it may be occasionally used for promotional purposes for products or services.
  • I will only promote products/services that I have personally used and genuinely want to share with my readers.
  • Products that are provided to me by my advertising partners for my review are given free of charge with no cost to me. This does not mean I will automatically give a positive review of a product.
  • Trust is important to me. I want you to trust me. I strive to always give my actual opinion on a service or product, even if I am partnering with the service provider and/or getting payment.
  • Mentions of associated products, services, or businesses within the content of the blog may or may not be noted as an affiliate in every reference.

I love writing my blog. I strive to give my readers fantastic content. I may make a small profit in order to compensate me for the time and energy I put into making this blog great. Buying through an affiliate link means I may receive compensation at no extra cost to you. Overall, I will be upfront when I am being paid.
