Locks to Logins Affiliate Disclosure

How We Use Affiliate Links on This Site

Locks to Logins uses affiliate links for some of the products and services mentioned on this site. If you click one of those links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission. It doesn’t cost you anything extra, and it helps support the site so we can keep putting out useful guides and honest reviews.

Why we use affiliate links

We’ve all been there. You’re about to read something helpful or watch a video and suddenly a pop up takes over the screen. It’s frustrating and pulls you away from what you were doing. That’s not the experience I want here.

Affiliate links are different because they stay out of your way. They’re completely transparent to you, which is why we chose to fund the site this way. We only recommend products we actually trust. If a product or service doesn’t hold up, we won’t suggest it. The goal is always to help you make better decisions about your home and online security setup.

How affiliate links work

Some companies offer a referral program that pays creators when someone makes a purchase through their link. That’s all an affiliate link is. Your price doesn’t change, and there are no hidden fees. You get the same deal you’d get if you went directly to the site.

Editorial independence

Our content is written based on real performance, hands-on experience, or thorough research. Partner companies don’t get to approve or influence the guides, reviews, or recommendations you read here. If something has pros and cons, we say so.

Why do you have an affiliate disclosure?

This affiliate disclosure is about transparency. My background has always been in fields where trust, integrity, and doing the right thing when no one is looking are fundamental parts of the job. I also think it’s important to know how people you deal with make their money because it helps you understand their motivations. You’ve probably heard the line, “If you’re not paying for the product, you are the product”. The online world is full of sites that quietly sell your personal information for a profit. We don’t do that here.

We keep our disclosures simple and up front because you should always know how this site is supported. If you have questions about how affiliate links work or want more details, feel free to reach out through the contact page.

We do our best to follow the FTC’s guidance on clear and upfront affiliate disclosures. You can read their official recommendations on the FTC Disclosure 101 for Social Media Influencers page, and if you ever have questions about how affiliate links work on this site, feel free to reach out through the Contact page.
