Affiliate Disclosure

We wish to be fully transparent with our readers, so we want you to know that we will discuss a variety of products/services on this blog, and when possible, we will use affiliate links. If you follow an affiliate link and go on to purchase that product or service, we will be paid a small commission, however, your cost will be the same (and quite possibly less if we’re highlighting a promotion).

So naturally, there is the question of if we are pushing this product/service just to make money, or are we recommending it because we feel it is in the best interest of our readers? Our goal is to be Your Partner in Health and to help people through our experience and knowledge, so we won’t recommend a product unless we’ve:

  1. Used it personally (which will be the case the vast majority of the time).
  2. Thoroughly researched it and gotten first-hand user feedback from other successful bloggers/entrepreneurs we trust and that have used the product/service.

We try to give a lot of valuable information away for free because we want to help people and learn from them in the process. If you find the information on Golden Poppy Herbs to be useful, we would appreciate your support by using the affiliate links on the site rather than going directly to the source. Thanks in advance!

Recently, the Federal Trade Commission released new rules for Disclosure Compliance. These rules are set in place to ensure that readers or viewers of web media (blogs, Youtube videos, etc) know if the blogger/presenter is sponsored, endorsed or partnered with a different company. In blog terms, the readers need to know if the blogger is making money by sharing a link, product, or service.

Listed below are several ways in which this applies to our website.

In compliance with the FTC guidelines, please assume the following about links and posts on this site:

  • Any/all of the links on GoldenPoppyHerbs.com are affiliate links. This means that if you click on the link and buy certain items, we will receive a small commission. The price is the same for you, though! Thank you for your support.
  • If we post an affiliate link to a product, it is something that we personally use, support and/or would recommend without an affiliate link.
  • We sometimes review items that are sent to us for free. All of the opinions regarding them are our own. We only endorse products that are in alignment with our ideals and that we believe would be of value to our readers.
  • If a post is sponsored by a company, we will disclose that within the post. If it’s not something we would use with our families, we won’t recommend it.
