Advertising Disclosure — CamoCrypt
Quick answer: This disclosure explains how CamoCrypt labels advertising, sponsored content, press releases and affiliate links, and how we keep our independent coverage free of commercial influence. Our aim is simple: you should always be able to tell what is paid and what is not. Nothing on CamoCrypt is financial advice.
Key takeaways
- Everything paid is labelled — advertising, sponsored content and press releases.
- Affiliate links are disclosed and never change our recommendations.
- Editorial is independent and cannot be bought.
- We follow the FTC endorsement guidelines on material connections.
- Questions? Reach us via our contact page.
Why we publish this disclosure
CamoCrypt accepts advertising and other commercial arrangements to fund independent crypto-security education. Readers deserve to know when money is involved, so we disclose it plainly. Clear labelling protects you, keeps us honest, and actually makes paid placements more effective — an honest label builds more trust than a hidden one ever could.
How we label paid placements
- Advertising — display units are marked as advertisements.
- Sponsored content — articles a brand pays for are labelled “Sponsored” or similar.
- Press releases — company announcements are labelled as company-supplied.
- Affiliate links — disclosed where they appear.
Affiliate links explained
Some pages contain affiliate links. If you act on one, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. We only include affiliate links for products we would reference regardless, and a potential commission never affects whether or how we recommend something. Our reviews are based on merit, not payouts.
What stays independent
- Reviews, ratings and rankings.
- News reporting and security analysis.
- Which products and topics our editorial team chooses to cover.
- Criticism — we do not remove accurate negatives for money.
The FTC guidelines
We follow the FTC endorsement guidelines, which require that material connections between a publisher and an advertiser be disclosed clearly and conspicuously. In practice that means visible labels, plain language, and disclosure close to the relevant content rather than buried in fine print.
What we do not do
- We do not sell undisclosed or disguised paid links.
- We do not publish sponsored content dressed up as independent editorial.
- We do not accept guaranteed-return or price-prediction claims.
- We do not let advertisers approve or edit our independent coverage.
