Affiliate Disclosure

“ theearthmode.com .com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to amazon.com, amazonsupply.com, or ourhabit.com.”

Unfortunately, that’s some jargon that we had to include in our policy, but let me speak in plain English from here on:

Currently we are an affiliate with Amazon and a publisher in the Google Adsense program so you may see some of the advertisements on the site and some of the links in our articles or on the Resources page are affiliate links which means that we’ll collect a small percentage of the sale as commission.

The reason that these are in place is because the small commissions add up and help support the costs to run the site and helps me feed our family without being overly intrusive to our audience’s experience and learning on the site.

These commissions will never come at a cost to yourself and we vow that whether a particular product offers a commission or not, it will never influence our recommendations or teaching material. know that trust takes a lifetime to build but only seconds to lose, so you can rest assured that we only link to products which we have used personally and would recommend, as a teacher, to our audience for the purpose of learning, building or marketing iOS apps.

With that said, we would like to sincerely thank you and our readers.
