FTC Disclosure Compliance Rules
In 2015, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) released rules for Disclosure Compliance.
These rules exist to ensure that readers and viewers of web content understand if the publisher is sponsored, endorsed, or partnered with another company. Readers should be aware when the publisher earns compensation from links or product recommendations.
In compliance with the FTC guidelines, please assume the following about links and posts on FlyingMachineArena:
- Any/all of the links on FlyingMachineArena.org may be affiliate links for which I receive a small commission 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 on FlyingMachineArena.org to purchase an item, the transaction occurs directly with the seller (not FlyingMachineArena).
Affiliate programs such as Amazon and other partners pay FlyingMachineArena a small commission or other compensation for helping bring customers to their websites.
Important: Prices remain exactly the same for you, whether you purchase through an affiliate link or a regular link. Clicking an affiliate link does not affect the price you pay.
FlyingMachineArena uses two primary types of affiliate programs:
- Amazon Affiliate Links
FlyingMachineArena.org is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for website owners to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites. - Product Affiliate Links
If you click a product affiliate link and buy the product, FlyingMachineArena may receive a percentage of the sale or another type of compensation.
Again, your cost does not change when you use affiliate links. These are not “pay per click” links.
Sponsored Content
FlyingMachineArena does not publish sponsored posts unless clearly stated. If a company wishes to publish sponsored content on FlyingMachineArena, this will be disclosed clearly at the beginning of the post.
Final Note
I only recommend products and services that I personally use or would recommend to family and friends.
Your purchases through these links help support my work and allow me to continue creating useful, unbiased content. Thank you for your support!
