FTC Affiliate Disclosure & Editorial Ethics
GridHomeHub believes in absolute financial transparency with our readers. This document details our commercial relationships, affiliate networks, and compliance with the United States Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines.
1. Compliance with FTC 16 CFR § 255.5
The Federal Trade Commission requires web publishers to disclose any material connection between an endorser and the seller of a product. In accordance with 16 CFR § 255.5, please assume that:
- Every product link on GridHomeHub that directs you to an external merchant (including Amazon, Awin, Impact, CJ Affiliate, AvantLink, ShareASale, or direct manufacturer stores) may be an affiliate tracking link.
- If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, GridHomeHub may receive a referral commission from the merchant.
- This commission comes at zero additional cost to you. In fact, we frequently negotiate exclusive discount codes (such as direct 10% to 25% coupon codes) that save our readers money compared to list price.
2. Amazon Associates Disclosure
GridHomeHub 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.com and affiliated international sites. Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates.
3. Editorial Independence Guarantee
Our editorial evaluations, lab scores, and comparative conclusions are conducted with complete autonomy:
- Our testing engineers are not compensated based on which products you purchase.
- We frequently award top recommendations to lower-priced tools when they outperform expensive competitors.
- Affiliate partnerships never dictate our editorial verdict. Products that fail our testing are labeled as such, regardless of commercial relationships.
