Affiliate Disclosure

Transparency matters to us, and the FTC requires it anyway — so here is exactly how EMPEERYAL (operated by EMPEERYAL, LLC) makes money.

The short version

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and buy something (or sign up), the company pays us a commission. You never pay more — the price is the same whether you use our link or not. Sometimes our links or coupon codes even get you a discount.

How it works here

• Deal buttons on the deals page and links inside posts may be affiliate links.
• Deal links route through our own redirect (/go/…), which counts the click as an anonymous number so we know which deals people find useful. Nothing about you is recorded.
• Coupon codes shown on the site may be affiliate codes that credit us when used.

What we promise

• We only recommend things we'd use ourselves. Many of the tools we link to (like our hosting and database providers) literally run this site.
• Commissions never change our opinion. If something is bad, we say so or we don't feature it. Nobody pays to be featured.
• Sponsored content, if we ever publish it, will be clearly labeled.

Advertising

The site may also display ads through Google AdSense. Ad revenue is based on views and clicks; advertisers don't influence our content. See the Privacy Policy for how ad cookies work and how to opt out of personalized ads.

Specific programs

We participate in various affiliate programs, which change over time. If we join a program that requires specific wording (for example, Amazon Associates requires: "As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases"), that wording applies wherever those links appear.

Questions

Wondering whether a specific link is an affiliate link? Just ask us — we're happy to tell you.
