Disclosure Policy
Affiliated Links
Love Decor and Adornment uses selective affiliated links. You will see this disclosure when the post includes links to certain products that are affiliate links. I may make a small commission if you choose to purchase the item(s) through my link. I only link to products I have tried and/or fully believe will be of use to my readers. This NEVER results in additional charges to you or any increase in the cost of the product you are purchasing.
Love Decor and Adornment 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. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
Sponsored Post
You will see this disclosure in a situation where a sponsored post is a regular post (written by me, my wording, my opinions), but the brand pays me to ensure that the product does appear on the site, and within their timeline. Again, all opinions will be my own and I will never accept compensation just to show a product that I don’t love.
At the top of a sponsored post, you will see “This post has been sponsored by COMPANY X, although I have been compensated for this post. All opinions are 100% my own”.
