In accordance with FTC guidelines, Teri Ringham Health and Wellness ("Teri Ringham") hereby discloses to you the following important statement: Any/all of the links on this website (https://teriringham.com) are affiliate links from which Teri Ringham Health and Wellness receives a small compensation from sales of certain items.
Background:
Back in 2015, the Federal Trade Commission released their new rules for Disclosure Compliance enabled rules to ensure that readers or viewers of web media (blogs, Youtube videos, etc.) know if the blogger/presenter is sponsored, endorsed, or partnered with a different company. In blog terms, the readers need to know if the blogger is making money by sharing a link or product.
What are affiliate links?
Purchases are made on external affiliate company websites: When a reader clicks on an affiliate link located on https://teriringham.com to purchase an item, the reader buys the item from the seller directly (not from Teri Ringham or Teri Ringham Health and Wellness). Amazon and/or other companies pay Teri Ringham a small commission or other compensation for promoting their website or products through their affiliate program.
Prices are exactly the same for you if your purchase is through an affiliate link or a non-affiliate link. You will not pay more by clicking through to the link.
This website uses two main types of affiliate programs:
1. Amazon affiliate links:
Teri Ringham 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 properties including, but not limited to, amazon.com. Amazon offers a small commission on products sold through their affiliate links. Each of your purchases via our Amazon affiliation links supports our cause at no additional cost to you.
Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates.
If a blogger links to an Amazon product (with a special code for affiliates embedded in the link), and a reader places an item in their "shopping cart" through that link within 24 hours of clicking the link, the blogger gets a small percentage of the sale. Amazon links are not “pay per click.” If you click on the product link and stay around Amazon and purchase something else, however, I will get commission on that sale.
Anytime you see a link that looks like https://astore.amazon.com/ or https://amazon.com/ or https://amzn.to/ it is an Amazon affiliate link.
2. Product affiliate links:
These affiliate links work the same way: if you click the link and buy the product, then the blogger gets a percentage of the sale or some other type of compensation. Things like e-book bundles, favorite or recommended products are usually affiliate links, also. Again, prices are not different if you use these affiliate links. You will not pay more by clicking through to the link. These links are not “pay per click.”
List of companies with which I have an affiliate relationship:
BioReigns: Natural Supplements
Coseva: Heavy Metal Detox
What about sponsored content?
I do not write sponsored posts. I want to bring you real, un-biased information. However, if a post is sponsored by a company, I will disclose this clearly in the beginning of the post.
As for my social media pages where I use Amazon & other affiliate links for product recommendations, I will include a link back to https://teriringham.com and/or this page, or put "(affiliate link)", or #ad in the post.
