Affiliate Disclosure & FTC Compliance
At HealthcareNow.net, we believe in complete transparency with our readers. This page explains our affiliate relationships and how we maintain editorial integrity while operating a sustainable website.
What Are Affiliate Links?
Some of the links on HealthcareNow.net are “affiliate links.” This means that if you click on a link and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. This commission helps support the operation of our website and allows us to continue providing free health information to our readers.
FTC Disclosure Statement
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines concerning the use of endorsements and testimonials in advertising (16 CFR Part 255), we disclose the following:
HealthcareNow.net is a participant in affiliate advertising programs designed to provide a means for websites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to third-party websites.
Our Affiliate Relationships
We may have affiliate relationships with:
- Health and wellness product retailers
- Supplement companies
- Fitness equipment manufacturers
- Online health service providers
- Book publishers and educational platforms
- General e-commerce platforms (such as Amazon)
How Affiliate Links Are Identified
To maintain transparency, we strive to clearly identify affiliate relationships:
- Articles containing affiliate links include disclosure statements
- Product review pages note when products are linked through affiliate programs
- We use clear language such as “affiliate link” or “we may earn a commission”
Our Editorial Integrity Promise
We want you to know that our commitment to honest, accurate health information comes first. Here’s how we maintain editorial integrity:
Content Comes First
- No Pay-for-Play: Companies cannot pay for positive reviews or editorial coverage
- Honest Opinions: Our product mentions reflect genuine assessments, not financial incentives
- Reader-First Approach: We recommend products based on quality and value, not commission rates
Separation of Editorial and Advertising
- Our editorial team operates independently from business development
- Affiliate relationships do not influence our health advice or recommendations
- We will never recommend a product that we don’t believe provides genuine value
Negative Reviews
- We are not afraid to give negative reviews or warn against products
- If a product doesn’t meet our standards, we’ll say so—even if it means losing potential commissions
- Our reputation for honesty is more valuable than any affiliate payment
Product Selection Criteria
When we recommend or review products, we consider:
- Quality: Does the product meet high quality standards?
- Safety: Is the product safe for its intended use?
- Efficacy: Is there evidence supporting its effectiveness?
- Value: Does it provide good value for the price?
- Reputation: Is the manufacturer reputable and transparent?
- User Experience: What do actual users report?
Sponsored Content
In addition to affiliate relationships, we may occasionally publish sponsored content:
- Sponsored posts are clearly labeled as “Sponsored” or “Paid Partnership”
- Sponsored content is reviewed by our editorial team for accuracy
- We only accept sponsored content that aligns with our values and reader interests
- Sponsors do not have editorial control over our independent content
Advertising
Our website may display advertisements from third-party ad networks:
- Advertisements are clearly distinguishable from editorial content
- We do not control which specific ads appear on our pages
- The presence of an ad does not constitute an endorsement
- We strive to work with ad networks that maintain quality standards
Your Trust Matters
We understand that trust is earned, not given. Our business model depends on providing genuine value to our readers. If you ever feel that we have compromised our integrity, please let us know.
Your feedback helps us improve and maintain the highest standards of transparency and honesty.
