Affiliate Disclosure

Recommendations come first.

Compensation does not determine whether a product is recommended. We consider practical usefulness, quality, materials, construction, design, durability, value, relevance, and fit with the Distill My Heart Adventures audience. An affiliate relationship does not guarantee coverage or a positive recommendation.

Our guides should remain useful even when a reader buys nothing. More detail about how we research and label recommendations is available in our Editorial Standards.

Affiliate links are identified where they matter.

When a recommendation includes an affiliate link, a concise disclosure appears near the recommendation and before or adjacent to the first monetized link. A normal manufacturer, source, or retailer link is not labeled as affiliate unless it actually carries an affiliate relationship.

The merchant remains the seller.

Distill My Heart Adventures is an editorial publisher, not the seller or merchant of record for products reached through outside links. Prices, availability, product claims, payment, shipping, taxes, returns, exchanges, warranties, and customer service are controlled by the merchant. Check the merchant’s current terms before purchasing.

Other commercial relationships are disclosed too.

If a product is received free, at a discount, or on loan, that fact will be disclosed with the relevant coverage. Sponsored content and paid placement will be identified clearly. A sponsored placement does not guarantee a positive opinion, and a supplied product does not guarantee publication.
