What an affiliate link is
Some tool vendors pay a commission to sites that bring them subscribers. An affiliate link carries an identifier that tells the vendor you came from automascope. If you subscribe after clicking, the vendor may pay me a commission. The price you pay does not change.
How these links are labeled
- Every button that carries an affiliate link is marked with an asterisk (*).
- Every page that mentions a tool opens with a “Disclosure” box.
- A line in the footer of every page repeats it.
A button without an asterisk is an ordinary link to the vendor’s site: it earns nothing. Links placed in tables and in the text to cite a source are always ordinary links, never affiliate links. No link goes through an intermediate page on this site.
What the commission does not influence
- The records. Prices, quotas and features come from the vendors’ official pages, with their address and date. A tool with no affiliate program is described the same way as any other.
- The rankings. The order of a comparison and the recommendations of a head-to-head follow from the recorded data, not from the size of a commission.
- The texts. No vendor sees a page before it is published, and none pays to appear on it.
What you will not find here
- No sponsored articles, no placements for sale.
- No numeric scores and no stars.
- No claim of use without a real trial, flagged as such.
Any questions? Email me: contact@automascope.com. How the pages are put together is described on the Method page.
