In the interest of full disclosure, we want to let you know that our website participates in a variety of affiliate marketing programs, including but not limited to the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. This page explains what affiliate links are, how commissions work, and how this relationship influences our content.
What Are Affiliate Links?
Some of the links on clearwaterkennels.com are affiliate links. This means that if you click on these links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. These affiliate links are a way for us to earn compensation for the content, reviews, and recommendations we provide.
Our Participation in Affiliate Programs
Clearwater Kennels is a participant in several affiliate programs, most notably the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. This is an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites. We may also participate in other affiliate programs that are relevant to our content and audience.
How Commissions Are Earned
When you click on an affiliate link on our website and make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the merchant or affiliate partner. These commissions help us maintain the website, create new content, and continue providing valuable information for our readers. It is important to note that:
- You do not pay any extra fees or charges by using our affiliate links.
- The price you pay for products or services is the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the merchant’s website.
- All commissions earned are paid by the merchant or affiliate partner, not by you as the customer.
