In 2015, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) introduced updated rules regarding Disclosure Compliance in the United States. While these rules primarily apply to US-based content creators, transparency remains essential across all jurisdictions. In the UK, the relevant legislation and guidelines include the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 and the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) Code. These rules ensure that readers or viewers of online content (such as blogs, YouTube videos, etc.) are informed if the content creator is sponsored, endorsed, or partnered with another company. This is to provide clarity on whether the creator is receiving financial compensation by sharing a particular product, service, or link.
In line with these regulations and best practices, please assume the following regarding links and posts on this website, donatogoods.com: Some or all of the links are affiliate links from which we may receive a small commission for sales of certain items.
What are Affiliate Links?
Affiliate links direct users to third-party websites where purchases are made. When a reader clicks on an affiliate link on donatogoods.com and makes a purchase, they are buying directly from the seller (not from donatogoods.com). As part of the affiliate programs, Amazon and/or other companies provide us with a small commission or other forms of compensation for promoting their websites and products.
Please note: The price of items remains exactly the same for you, whether you purchase through an affiliate link or a non-affiliate link. There is no additional cost to you.
Types of Affiliate Programs We Use
1. Amazon Affiliate Links
donatogoods.com 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 properties, including but not limited to amazon.com, amazon.co.uk, and other international Amazon sites. When you click on an Amazon link on our site and complete a purchase within a specified timeframe (typically 24 hours), we may earn a small percentage of the sale.
Amazon affiliate links do not operate on a “pay-per-click” basis; rather, compensation is based on sales generated. Even if you do not purchase the item linked to, we may receive a commission if you continue shopping on Amazon after clicking the affiliate link and purchase other items. Any links that begin with “astore.com/…,” “amazon.com/…,” or similar formats should be assumed to be Amazon affiliate links.
2. Product Affiliate Links
These links function similarly: if you click through to a product and make a purchase, we may receive a commission or some other form of compensation. Such products may include e-books, online courses, software, or other digital packages. Again, there is no difference in price for you if you use these affiliate links. These links are not typically “pay-per-click,” unless clearly indicated otherwise.
Sponsored Content
We do not produce sponsored posts in which a company directly compensates us to promote specific content. Our aim is to provide genuine, unbiased information. However, in the event that we do engage in a sponsored partnership, we will make a clear disclosure at the beginning of the post in compliance with UK advertising guidelines and regulations.
