Affiliate Disclosure
Last Updated: December 11, 2024
Affiliate Relationships
Organic Expertise participates in affiliate marketing programs, including the Amazon Associates Program. This means that when you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.
This disclosure is made in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255: "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising."
How Affiliate Links Work
When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, the merchant pays us a small commission. This commission comes at no extra cost to you - you pay the same price whether you use our link or not.
These commissions help support our work researching, testing, and creating evidence-based content about natural health and essential oils.
Our Product Recommendation Policy
We take our recommendations seriously. Here's our policy:
What We Promise
- We only recommend products we believe meet quality standards. We evaluate products based on ingredient quality, manufacturing standards, third-party testing, and value for money.
- Commission amounts don't influence our recommendations. We recommend what we believe is best for our readers, not what earns the highest commission.
- We disclose all affiliate relationships. Whenever we include an affiliate link, we clearly mark it as such. Transparency is non-negotiable.
- Our content is not advertising. Our articles are researched independently and not influenced by advertisers or affiliate partners.
Amazon Associates Disclosure
Organic Expertise 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.
Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates.
Product Testing and Reviews
When we test and review products:
- We purchase products ourselves whenever possible to avoid bias
- We test products according to our published protocols
- We report both positive and negative findings honestly
- We update reviews if our experience or assessment changes over time
- We will never recommend a product solely because it offers an affiliate commission
Quality Standards for Recommendations
For essential oils and natural products, we look for:
- Third-party testing: GC-MS testing reports available to verify purity and composition
- Proper labeling: Latin botanical names, country of origin, extraction method clearly stated
- Quality sourcing: Reputable suppliers with transparent supply chains
- Safety standards: Proper packaging (dark glass), batch numbers, expiration dates
- Value: Fair pricing relative to quality and market standards
Your Trust Matters
We built Organic Expertise to provide trustworthy, evidence-based information about natural health and essential oils. Affiliate commissions help sustain our work, but they will never compromise our commitment to honest, scientifically-grounded content.
If you ever believe we've recommended a product that doesn't meet our stated standards, please let us know at feedback@organicexpertise.com.
No Guaranteed Results
While we strive to provide accurate information based on scientific research, individual results may vary. The products and protocols we discuss are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Always consult with a qualified healthcare professional before starting any new health regimen, especially if you have pre-existing medical conditions or are taking medications.
