Affiliate Disclosure

How Comfort Below earns revenue and what that means for you

What This Disclosure Covers

Some pages and articles on Comfort Below contain affiliate links, including links to programs sold through ClickBank and to products on Amazon. If you follow one of those links and go on to buy the product, the seller pays us a share of that sale. That share comes out of the seller’s margin: your total at checkout is what it would have been had you arrived at the page any other way, nothing is added on, and your payment details never pass through us.

Why We Use Affiliate Links

Commissions are how the site pays for itself. They cover hosting and the hours that go into researching and rewriting an article when the guidance behind it changes. We carry no display advertising and sell no products of our own, so this is the only way a page here earns anything.

What Affiliate Relationships Do Not Mean

An affiliate relationship does not mean we endorse any product as a medical treatment, that we guarantee any outcome, or that our coverage of a topic is influenced by whether a commission is available. A page that can earn money is held to the same wording rules as a page that cannot — no cure claims, no promised timelines for symptom relief, no suggestion that anyone skip medical care — set out in our Editorial Policy.

Specifically:

We do not present affiliate products or programmes as substitutes for medical care
We do not claim that any product will cure hemorrhoids or guarantee they will not return
We do not use fear, false urgency or misleading claims to encourage purchases
We do not promote products we consider harmful or irresponsible for the intended audience

How to Identify Affiliate Links

Articles containing affiliate links say so in a notice near the top of the page, before you reach any link. Affiliate links are marked with rel="sponsored nofollow noopener" attributes in the HTML, as required by search engine guidelines and standard affiliate disclosure practice.

Amazon Associates

Comfort Below is a participant in the Amazon Associates Program, an affiliate advertising programme designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.

Compliance

This disclosure is provided in accordance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines on endorsements and testimonials, and with relevant advertising standards in other jurisdictions. We are committed to transparency about commercial relationships on this site.
