Advertising Disclosure

Our commitment to transparency

At Threadlogic, we believe in maintaining transparency with our website visitors and clients. This Advertising Disclosure explains any financial relationships we may have with third parties and how we present content on our website.

We are committed to providing honest, unbiased information whilst being transparent about any commercial relationships that may exist. This disclosure is provided in compliance with applicable advertising standards and consumer protection regulations.

Affiliate relationships and partnerships

Overview of affiliate programmes

Threadlogic may participate in affiliate marketing programmes with various technology providers and service platforms. When you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase or sign up for a service, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.

These affiliate relationships help support the operation of our website and allow us to continue providing valuable content and services. However, we only recommend products and services that we genuinely believe may be beneficial to our audience.

Financial relationship transparency

We maintain transparency about our affiliate relationships:

• • Affiliate links are typically disclosed near the relevant content or recommendation
• • We receive commission only when you make a purchase through our affiliate links
• • The commission does not increase the price you pay for products or services
• • We are not obligated to promote specific products or services

Product recommendation policies

Our recommendations are based on our professional experience and assessment of what may benefit our clients and audience. We do not allow financial incentives to compromise the integrity of our recommendations. If we mention or recommend a product or service, it's because we believe it has genuine merit, regardless of any affiliate relationship.

Sponsored content and paid promotions

Identification of sponsored material

From time to time, we may publish sponsored content or paid promotions on our website. All sponsored content will be clearly identified with appropriate disclosures such as "Sponsored," "Paid Promotion," or "Advertisement" labels.

We maintain editorial independence even for sponsored content. Sponsors do not control our editorial content or influence our professional opinions. We reserve the right to decline sponsored content opportunities that do not align with our values or our audience's interests.

Sponsored post labelling policies

Our sponsored content practices include:

• • Clear and conspicuous disclosure of all sponsored relationships
• • Honest opinions and factual representations in sponsored content
• • Compliance with applicable advertising standards and regulations
• • Rigorous review of sponsored content before publication

Brand partnership disclosures

We may enter into partnerships with technology providers, software companies, or service platforms. These partnerships may include financial arrangements, product access, or other considerations. All such partnerships will be disclosed appropriately when relevant to the content we publish.
