Thorcoupons Affiliate Policy
At Thorcoupons (“we,” “us,” “our”), we work with a variety of affiliate partners to provide our users with the best deals, discounts, and coupons. This Affiliate Policy explains how we work with these partners and what you, as a user, should know about our affiliate relationships.
1. What is an Affiliate Program?
An affiliate program is an arrangement where ThorCoupons earns a commission when a user makes a purchase via one of our affiliate links. These links may direct you to the websites of our affiliate partners (merchants). Our goal is to connect you with the best available offers while earning a small commission to support the website.
2. How Does It Work?
When you click on a coupon or deal link on our site and make a purchase through our affiliate partner’s website, we may receive compensation for that referral. This does not affect the price you pay or the deals offered to you. The commission earned is paid by the retailer, not by you.
3. Transparency of Affiliate Relationships
ThorCoupons strives to maintain transparency regarding our affiliate relationships:
- Affiliate Links: Some links on our site are affiliate links. When you click on these links and make a purchase, we may receive compensation.
- No Additional Cost: You will not pay more by clicking through our affiliate links. In fact, in many cases, you may save money by using the coupon or deal you found through ThorCoupons.
- No Misleading Claims: We ensure that all deals and offers are genuine. We will not make any exaggerated or false claims to mislead users about potential savings. All offers are researched and verified for accuracy.
4. Affiliate Cookies
When you click on an affiliate link, a cookie is placed on your device to track your purchase. This cookie is used by our affiliate partners to confirm that the sale came from our referral. The cookies typically remain on your device for a set period (usually 30-90 days) but will not collect any personal information beyond tracking the affiliate sale. We disclose how cookies and tracking technologies work in our Cookie Policy for transparency.
5. FTC Compliance & Disclosures
We adhere to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines regarding affiliate marketing, ensuring that all affiliate links are clearly disclosed. You can find affiliate disclosures on individual pages where affiliate links are present. Users are always informed that they are interacting with an affiliate link, and we recommend that all users assume any external retailer link could be an affiliate link unless otherwise stated.
6. Editorial Integrity
At ThorCoupons, we maintain editorial independence. Our team of writers and content creators strives to provide unbiased and accurate information to help you find the best deals. The inclusion of affiliate links does not influence our content decisions. We prioritize providing value to our users, and the presence of an affiliate link does not affect our recommendations or rankings.
7. Third-Party Affiliate Networks
We partner with various third-party affiliate networks that connect us to merchants offering deals and coupons. These networks track user behavior across various websites to help identify when a purchase has been made via our site.
8. Third-Party Affiliate Tracking
In addition to placing cookies on your device when you click on affiliate links, our third-party partners may use other tracking technologies like pixel tags, web beacons, or tracking URLs to measure the effectiveness of affiliate marketing efforts. These technologies help ensure that our referral is accurately recorded and commissions are attributed to ThorCoupons.
9. Your Privacy
We value your privacy and ensure that no personally identifiable information (PII) is collected via affiliate tracking. Affiliate cookies track only non-personal data, such as which link was clicked and the resulting sale. For more details on how your data is used and protected, please refer to our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
10. Changes to Our Affiliate Policy
We may update this Affiliate Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page, and your continued use of our site after such changes are posted means you agree to be bound by the revised policy.
