Advertising Disclosure
Last updated: December 02, 2025
At BIORAD, transparency is fundamental to how we operate. This disclosure outlines our advertising relationships, affiliate partnerships, and monetization practices. We believe you deserve to know how we earn revenue and how that might influence the content we present.
We are committed to maintaining honesty in all our communications. When we receive compensation for recommendations or content, we will always disclose that relationship clearly.
Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships
Our website may contain affiliate links to products, services, or resources we believe may be valuable to our audience. When you click on these links and make a purchase, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.
How Affiliate Programs Work
- • Commission Structure: We participate in affiliate programs where we earn a percentage of sales made through our referral links
- • No Extra Cost: Affiliate relationships do not increase the price you pay for products or services
- • Disclosure Practice: We clearly mark affiliate links and disclose when content contains affiliate relationships
- • Link Identification: Affiliate links may be marked with disclaimers or special designations
Our Recommendation Policy
We maintain strict standards for what we recommend:
- • We only recommend products, services, or tools we have personal experience with or have thoroughly researched
- • Affiliate commissions do not influence our honest assessment of products or services
- • We will never recommend something solely for financial gain if we don't believe it serves our audience
- • Our opinions remain our own, regardless of compensation received
Financial Transparency
We believe in complete transparency about financial relationships. When we have a material financial interest in a product or service we discuss, we will disclose that relationship. This includes affiliate commissions, sponsorships, equity stakes, or any other form of compensation that could influence our perspective.
Sponsored Content and Paid Promotions
Occasionally, we may work with brands, companies, or organizations to create sponsored content. All sponsored content is clearly labeled and distinguished from our regular content.
Sponsored Post Guidelines
- • All sponsored posts are clearly labeled as "Sponsored" or "Paid Partnership"
- • We maintain editorial control over all content, even when compensated
- • Sponsors do not write content for us; we create authentic material
- • We decline sponsorships that conflict with our values
Brand Partnerships
- • Long-term partnerships are disclosed in relevant content
- • We choose partners whose products align with our expertise
- • Partnership status doesn't compromise honest assessments
- • We reserve the right to end partnerships that don't serve our audience
Content Authenticity Guarantee
Regardless of sponsorship or compensation, all content represents our genuine perspective. We will not publish misleading information, false claims, or endorsements we don't stand behind. Our reputation and your trust matter more than any individual partnership or commission.
