This page explains<br \/>\n          exactly how our business model works, how we make money, and &mdash; most importantly<br \/>\n          &mdash; what it does (and does <em>not<\/em>) do to the reviews and rankings you read<br \/>\n          on this Site.\n        <\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#fff4e5;border-left:4px solid #ffb703;padding:16px 22px;border-radius:8px;margin:22px 0\">\n<p style=\"margin:0\"><strong>The short version:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin:8px 0 0 18px\">\n<li>We participate in affiliate programs &mdash; primarily Amazon&#8217;s Associates program.<\/li>\n<li>When you buy through our links, we may earn a small commission. This does not increase the price you pay.<\/li>\n<li>Editorial decisions (what we review, what we rank #1, what we say) are <em>not<\/em> for sale.<\/li>\n<li>Brands cannot buy a ranking, buy a positive review, or pay to remove a negative one.<\/li>\n<li>We purchase 100% of the products we test with our own money. We do not accept free review units.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<h2>What is an Affiliate Program?<\/h2>\n<p>\n          An affiliate program is an agreement between a website and a retailer (e.g., Amazon)<br \/>\n          that pays the website a small commission whenever a visitor sent from that site makes a<br \/>\n          purchase.\n        <\/p>\n<p>\n          For you, the reader, nothing changes. You pay the exact same price on Amazon whether<br \/>\n          you arrived through our link or by searching Amazon directly. The commission comes out<br \/>\n          of Amazon&#8217;s marketing budget, not your wallet.\n        <\/p>\n<h2>Which Programs Do We Participate In?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>\n            <strong>Amazon Services LLC Associates Program<\/strong> &mdash; the primary program.<br \/>\n            Most product links on the Site are Amazon affiliate links.<br \/>\n            <em>Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc., or its affiliates.<\/em>\n          <\/li>\n<li>We may occasionally join additional reputable retailer programs (e.g. Best Buy, Home Depot, Target affiliate portals). When we do, we will update this list here.<\/li>\n<li>We do <em>not<\/em> participate in private CPA networks, incentivized-download offers, VPN payouts, loan offers, or any monetization we think would conflict with reader trust.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>In-Article Disclosures<\/h2>\n<p>\n          In addition to this page, every article on PureAirGuide that contains affiliate links<br \/>\n          includes a short FTC disclosure at the top <em>and<\/em> bottom of the article, before<br \/>\n          the reader reaches the first link. We believe in &#8220;disclose early, disclose often.&#8221;\n        <\/p>\n<blockquote style=\"border-left:4px solid #1e73be;background:#f1f5f9;padding:14px 20px;font-style:italic;color:#334155;margin:18px 0\"><p>\n          &#8220;This post may contain affiliate links.

We make sure every review has honest downsides.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Author names are on every review.<\/strong> Real humans take credit for what they write, publicly and permanently.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Advertising &amp; Sponsored Content<\/h2>\n<p>\n          The Site may run display ads served through standard ad networks (e.g., Mediavine,<br \/>\n          Monumetric, Google AdSense) to cover server and testing costs. These ads are clearly<br \/>\n          labeled by the network and are programmatically delivered &mdash; they do not influence<br \/>\n          editorial content.\n        <\/p>\n<p>\n          <strong>No sponsored content \/ native advertorial policy:<\/strong> We do not publish<br \/>\n          paid posts, press-release rewrites, or brand-written articles. Any future exceptions<br \/>\n          would be explicitly labeled as &#8220;SPONSORED&#8221; in the headline, the byline, and the URL<br \/>\n          category, and would never appear alongside editorial product rankings.\n        <\/p>\n<h2>Questions?<\/h2>\n<p>\n          If you want to know more about any of the above, or if you&#8217;re a reader with feedback on<br \/>\n          our disclosure practices, we&#8217;d love to hear from you.
