Affiliate Disclosure & FTC Compliance
As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases made through links on this website. This is our primary revenue model that allows us to maintain and improve Remote Tech Gear at no cost to you.
What This Means
Remote Tech Gear is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for websites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.
When you click on affiliate links on our website and make a purchase on Amazon, we may receive a small commission from Amazon at no additional cost to you. The amount of the commission varies depending on the product category and varies by product category (see Amazon's official rates for current percentages).
How Affiliate Links Work
Throughout Remote Tech Gear, you'll find two types of links:
- Affiliate links — These links contain special tracking codes. When you click them and purchase on Amazon within 24 hours, we earn a commission. These links are identified by our affiliate disclosure statements.
- Regular links — Some links to third-party websites are not affiliate links and generate no commission for us.
When you use an affiliate link, your Amazon shopping experience remains unchanged. You pay the same price as you would if you went directly to Amazon. We do not charge you any markup or fee. The affiliate commission comes directly from Amazon's marketing budget, not from your pocket.
Our Editorial Integrity
The recommendations and reviews on Remote Tech Gear are created for one reason: to help you make informed purchasing decisions about technology products. Our editorial decisions are never influenced by the opportunity to earn affiliate commissions.
Here's how we maintain this independence:
- We review products based on merit, features, value, and reader need — not based on commission rates.
- We test products hands-on whenever possible and base recommendations on genuine experience.
- We are transparent about affiliate relationships in our content.
- We decline to promote products we cannot honestly recommend, regardless of commission potential.
- Our primary goal is reader satisfaction and trust, which directly benefits our long-term success.
No Additional Cost to You
This is important: using affiliate links costs you nothing extra. You will not pay more for products purchased through our links compared to purchasing directly from Amazon. The affiliate commission we receive is built into Amazon's normal marketing costs, not added to your bill.
Affiliate Relationships
In addition to Amazon Associates, Remote Tech Gear may participate in affiliate programs with other companies, including but not limited to:
- Affiliate networks and ad networks
- Tech retailer affiliate programs
- Other e-commerce platforms
All affiliate relationships are disclosed in individual articles or product reviews where applicable.
What We Don't Do
To maintain our editorial integrity, we do not:
- Accept payments to write favorable reviews of products we don't genuinely like
- Allow affiliate commission rates to determine which products we recommend
- Hide affiliate relationships or use deceptive practices
- Recommend products primarily because they have affiliate programs
- Allow sponsors to influence our editorial judgment
Sponsored Content & Partnerships
If Remote Tech Gear publishes sponsored content or enters into partnerships where we are directly compensated beyond affiliate commissions, we will clearly label that content as "Sponsored" or "Partner Content" at the top of the article, above the headline.
