Advertising Disclosure
Last Updated: December 8, 2025
Our Commitment to Transparency
At Clear Space, we believe in complete transparency about our advertising relationships and how we generate revenue. This Advertising Disclosure explains our policies regarding affiliate partnerships, sponsored content, and third-party advertising.
We want you to understand when content is sponsored or when we may receive compensation for recommendations. This helps you make informed decisions and maintains the trust you place in us.
Affiliate Relationships
What Are Affiliate Relationships?
Clear Space may participate in affiliate marketing programs. This means we may earn a commission when you purchase products or services through links on our website. These commissions come at no additional cost to you and help support our business operations.
Affiliate relationships allow us to recommend products and services we believe may be valuable to our clients while earning a small commission from the companies that provide them.
How Commission-Based Links Work
When you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the merchant. This compensation structure allows us to continue providing valuable content and services.
- • You pay the same price whether you use our link or go directly to the merchant
- • The commission comes from the merchant, not from your purchase price
- • We only recommend products and services we believe offer genuine value
- • Our editorial content remains independent of affiliate relationships
Product Recommendation Policy
We maintain strict standards for product recommendations:
- • We only recommend products and services that align with our values and standards
- • Financial compensation does not influence the honesty of our recommendations
- • We prioritize your best interests over potential commissions
- • If we have concerns about a product or service, we won't recommend it regardless of commission potential
Financial Relationship Transparency
We disclose affiliate relationships clearly and prominently. When content includes affiliate links, we'll indicate this near the links or at the beginning of relevant content. This transparency ensures you can make informed decisions about following recommendations.
Sponsored Content
Identification of Paid Content
Occasionally, we may publish sponsored content on our website. Sponsored content is material created in partnership with a brand or company that has paid for its placement. All sponsored content will be clearly labeled as such.
We maintain editorial control over sponsored content to ensure it aligns with our standards and provides value to our audience. Sponsors do not dictate the content or conclusions of these pieces.
Sponsored Post Labeling
We use clear, conspicuous labels for sponsored content, including:
- • Clear disclosure at the beginning of sponsored articles or posts
- • Visual indicators distinguishing sponsored from editorial content
- • Transparent acknowledgment of brand partnerships
- • Consistent disclosure practices across all platforms
Brand Partnership Disclosure
When we enter into brand partnerships, we evaluate potential partners carefully to ensure they align with our values and can provide genuine value to our audience. We disclose these partnerships openly and maintain editorial independence even within sponsored relationships.
Content Authenticity Guarantee
Even when content is sponsored, we guarantee its authenticity and value. We don't publish content solely for financial gain. Every piece of content, sponsored or not, must meet our quality standards and provide useful information to our audience.
Third-Party Advertising
Display Advertising Networks
We may use third-party advertising networks to display advertisements on our website. These networks may use cookies and similar technologies to deliver ads based on your browsing behavior across various websites.

Behavioral Targeting Disclosure
