Upward Spiral LLC (“us”, “we”, or “our”) operates Flurtzy.com (the “Site”). This page informs you of our policies regarding the use of affiliate links and how they impact the content and recommendations on our Site. By using the Site, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.
1. What is Affiliate Marketing?
Affiliate marketing is a way for websites like ours to earn a commission by promoting and linking to products or services. When you click on an affiliate link on our Site and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you.
2. Affiliate Programs We Participate In
(a) Amazon Affiliate Program: Flurtzy.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for websites to earn advertising fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.
(b) Other Affiliate Programs: In addition to Amazon, we participate in other affiliate marketing programs with trusted vendors. These programs enable us to recommend a wide variety of products and services that align with the content and mission of our Site.
3. How Affiliate Links Work
(a) Identification: Affiliate links may be embedded in product reviews, blog posts, or other areas of our Site. These links direct you to the vendor’s website where you can learn more about or purchase the item.
(b) Tracking: Affiliate links contain unique tracking codes that allow the vendor to identify that Flurtzy.com referred you. This helps ensure we receive a commission if you make a purchase.
4. Our Commitment to Transparency
(a) Honest Recommendations: While we earn commissions through affiliate links, our recommendations are based on honest evaluations. We only promote products or services that we believe will provide value to our audience.
(b) Disclosure: We are committed to disclosing when affiliate links are used. You will often see a statement near the affiliate link indicating our relationship with the vendor.
5. Information Collection and Use
(a) Personal Information: While using our Site, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information, such as your name and email address, that can be used to contact or identify you.
(b) Log Data: Like many site operators, we collect information that your browser sends whenever you visit our Site (“Log Data”). This may include your computer’s IP address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Site you visit, the time and date of your visit, and other statistics.
(c) Advertising Pixels: We may use advertising pixels, such as those from Facebook or Google, to track the success of our paid advertising. This data is used in aggregate and does not provide us with private or identifiable information.
6. Impact on Prices and Purchases
(a) No Extra Cost: Using affiliate links does not increase the price you pay for products or services. Any commissions we earn come directly from the vendor as a thank-you for the referral.
(b) Support for Upward Spiral LLC: When you make a purchase through our affiliate links, it helps support Flurtzy.com and allows us to continue creating valuable content for our readers.
