Affiliate Disclosure
In 2015, the Federal Trade Commission released their new rules for Disclosure Compliance. These rules are set in place to ensure that readers or viewers of web media (blogs, Youtube videos, etc.) know if the blogger/presenter is sponsored, endorsed, or partnered with a different company. In blog terms, the readers need to know if the blogger is making money by sharing a link or product.
In compliance with the FTC guidelines, please assume the following about links and posts on this site: any of the links on andchristina.com can be affiliate links from which I receive a small compensation from sales of certain items.
What are affiliate links?
Purchases are made on external affiliate company websites: When a reader clicks on an affiliate link located on andchristina.com to purchase an item, the reader buys the item from the seller directly (not from andchristina.com). Companies pay andchristina.com a small commission or other compensation for promoting their website or products through their affiliate program.
Prices are exactly the same for you if your purchase is through an affiliate link or a non-affiliate link. You will not pay more by clicking through to the link.
Anytime you see a link that looks like andchristina.com/recommends/… it is likely an affiliate link.
Any affiliate links to on my site are my own recommendation. I recommend products that I have used myself (or, in the instance that the product or item I used is no longer available, try to recommend similar products) or that I personally have chosen to feature.
Not all recommended or featured products have affiliate links, and I participate in multiple affiliate programs.
Amazon
andchristina.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon properties including, but not limited to, amazon.com, endless.com, myhabit.com, smallparts.com, or amazonwireless.com. Amazon offers a small commission on products sold through their affiliate links. Each of your purchases via our affiliation links supports our cause at no additional cost to you.
Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates.
If a blogger links to an Amazon product (with a special code for affiliates embedded in the link), and a reader places an item in their “shopping cart” through that link within 24 hours of clicking the link, the blogger gets a small percentage of the sale. Amazon links are not “pay per click.” If you click on the product link and stay around Amazon and purchase something else, however, I will get commission on that sale.
Build.com
andchristina.com is a participant in the Build.com Affiliate Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Build.com products. Build.com offers a small commission on products sold through their affiliate links. Each of your purchases via our affiliation links supports our cause at no additional cost to you.
Cost Plus World Market
andchristina.com is a participant in the Cost Plus World Market Affiliate Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Cost Plus World Market products. Cost Plus World Market offers a small commission on products sold through their affiliate links. Each of your purchases via our affiliation links supports our cause at no additional cost to you.
Sponsored Content
I do not publish guest posts – all content is written by me. I recommend products that I have used myself (or, in the instance that the product or item I used is no longer available, try to recommend similar products) or that I personally have chosen to feature.
