Advertising Disclosure

Last updated: November 22, 2025

Our Commitment to Transparency

At Anchor Theorem, we believe in complete transparency regarding any commercial relationships that might influence the content on our website. This disclosure explains our advertising practices, affiliate relationships, and any sponsored content we may feature.

We are committed to providing honest, unbiased analysis and information. Where commercial relationships exist, we disclose them clearly so you can make informed decisions about the information you receive from us.

Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships

Participation in Affiliate Programs

Anchor Theorem may participate in affiliate marketing programs with carefully selected financial service providers, software platforms, and professional tools. When you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase or sign up for a service, we may receive a commission or referral fee.

These affiliate relationships exist to help us maintain our website and provide free educational content while recommending tools and services that we believe offer genuine value to our visitors.

Commission-Based Recommendations

When we provide recommendations for third-party services or products, some of these recommendations may result in compensation to us if you choose to engage with those providers. This compensation structure works as follows:

  • •

    No Additional Cost to You

    Affiliate commissions do not increase the price you pay for any product or service. The cost to you is the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the provider.

  • •

    Commission Structure

    We receive a percentage of the transaction value or a flat referral fee when you purchase through our affiliate links. Commission rates vary by program and provider.

  • •

    Cookie Duration

    Most affiliate programs use cookies to track referrals. If you click our link and make a purchase within the cookie duration period (typically 30-90 days), we may receive credit for that transaction.

Product Recommendation Policy

We maintain strict standards for any products or services we recommend:

Quality First

We only recommend products or services that we believe offer genuine value and quality. The existence of an affiliate relationship does not influence our assessment of quality or suitability.

Honest Assessment

Our reviews and recommendations reflect our honest professional opinion based on our evaluation criteria, not on commission potential.

Clear Disclosure

When content includes affiliate links, we disclose this relationship clearly so you can make informed decisions.

Financial Relationship Transparency

We believe you should know about any financial relationships that might potentially influence our content. While we strive to maintain objectivity, we acknowledge that affiliate relationships create a financial incentive. We manage this by maintaining editorial independence and focusing on providing value to you, our reader, above maximizing affiliate revenue.

Sponsored Content and Paid Promotions

Identification of Sponsored Content

If we feature sponsored content or paid promotions on our website, we clearly identify them with labels such as "Sponsored," "Paid Promotion," "Advertisement," or "Partnered Content." This ensures you can easily distinguish between editorial content and material created in partnership with advertisers.

Sponsored Post Labeling

All sponsored posts, articles, or reviews are clearly marked at the beginning of the content. We maintain the following standards for sponsored content:

  • • Prominent disclosure at the top of sponsored articles
  • • Clear identification of the sponsoring company or brand
  • • Distinction between our editorial voice and sponsor messaging
  • • Honest representation of products or services, even in sponsored content

Brand Partnership Disclosures

When we enter into partnerships with brands or companies, we disclose these relationships transparently. Brand partnerships may involve compensation for content creation, product reviews, or featuring specific services. These partnerships are always disclosed within the relevant content.

Editorial Independence

While we may create sponsored content, we maintain editorial control and independence. Sponsors do not dictate our opinions, analysis, or recommendations. If we disagree with a sponsor's product quality or messaging, we decline the partnership rather than compromise our integrity.

Third-Party Advertising Networks

Display Advertising Networks

We may use third-party advertising networks to display advertisements on our website. These networks include:

  • • Google AdSense or Google Ad Manager for contextual advertising
  • • Other reputable advertising platforms that meet our quality standards

We do not control the specific advertisements that appear through these networks, though we set general content guidelines to ensure appropriate advertising.

Retarget visitors: Show you relevant ads on other websites after you visit our site

You can control these tracking practices through your browser settings and our cookie management tools. See our Cookie Policy for more information.

Advertising Content Standards

While we don't control individual advertisements served by third-party networks, we maintain quality standards and will remove or block inappropriate advertising when identified. We prohibit advertisements that are misleading, offensive, or promote illegal activities.
