Advertising Disclosure

Last updated: November 29, 2025

Our Commitment to Transparency

At Cadence Bloom, we believe in complete transparency regarding our business relationships and how we may earn revenue. This Advertising Disclosure explains the nature of our advertising relationships, affiliate partnerships, and sponsored content arrangements.

We are committed to providing honest, unbiased information to our visitors. When we recommend products, services, or resources, our primary consideration is always whether they genuinely add value for our audience. Financial considerations are secondary to this commitment.

Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships

Participation in Affiliate Programs

Cadence Bloom participates in various affiliate marketing programs. This means that when you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the merchant at no additional cost to you.

These affiliate relationships help support our business and allow us to continue providing valuable content and services. However, participation in an affiliate program does not influence our editorial decisions or recommendations. We only recommend products and services that we believe will genuinely benefit our audience.

Commission-Based Links

Some links on our website may be affiliate links, which means:

  • We may earn a commission if you click the link and complete a purchase
  • The price you pay remains the same whether or not you use our affiliate link
  • Commissions help support our business operations and content creation
  • We clearly identify affiliate links where required by regulations
  • Our recommendations are based on genuine belief in the product or service value

Product Recommendation Policies

When we recommend products or services, whether affiliated or not, we apply strict criteria. We consider the quality, relevance, and value of the offering. We evaluate whether it aligns with our audience's needs and interests. We assess the reputation and reliability of the provider. Most importantly, we only recommend tools and services that we would be comfortable using ourselves or suggesting to colleagues and friends. Financial compensation never influences whether we recommend something, only whether we continue to maintain an affiliate relationship with providers of products we already endorse.

Financial Relationship Transparency

We maintain transparency about our financial relationships. When we have a material financial relationship with a company whose products or services we discuss, we disclose this relationship clearly. This allows you to make informed decisions about the content you consume and the recommendations you choose to follow. Our goal is to build trust through honesty about how our business operates.

Sponsored Content and Paid Promotions

Identification of Paid Content

From time to time, we may publish sponsored content or paid promotional material. When we do so, we clearly identify such content with one or more of the following labels:

  • "Sponsored by [Company Name]"
  • "Paid Partnership with [Company Name]"
  • "Promoted Content"
  • "Advertisement" or "Ad"
  • Other clear and conspicuous disclosures as appropriate

These labels are placed prominently at the beginning of the content to ensure you can immediately identify sponsored material.

Sponsored Post Labeling

All sponsored posts are clearly marked to distinguish them from our regular editorial content. We maintain editorial independence even in sponsored content, ensuring that information presented is accurate and valuable. While sponsors may have input on topics or messaging, final content decisions rest with us, and we will not publish sponsored content that misleads readers or conflicts with our values and quality standards.

Brand Partnership Disclosures

We occasionally enter into brand partnerships where we collaborate with companies to create content or develop resources. These partnerships are disclosed clearly at the beginning of any related content. Even in partnership arrangements, we maintain our commitment to providing genuine value to our audience. We carefully select partners whose values align with ours and whose products or services we believe offer real benefits to our community.

Content Authenticity Guarantee

Whether content is sponsored or organic, we guarantee its authenticity and accuracy. We do not publish misleading information or make exaggerated claims about products or services. Our reputation depends on your trust, and we take that responsibility seriously. All content, regardless of its funding source, undergoes the same quality review process to ensure it meets our standards for accuracy, relevance, and value.

Third-Party Advertising Networks

Display Advertising Networks

We may use third-party advertising networks to display advertisements on our website. These networks may include:

  • Google AdSense and Google Ad Manager
  • Other reputable advertising platforms and networks
  • Programmatic advertising services

These advertising networks use various technologies, including cookies and similar tracking mechanisms, to serve relevant advertisements to visitors. The ads displayed through these networks are managed by third parties, not directly by Cadence Bloom.

Behavioral Targeting Disclosure

Third-party advertising networks may use behavioral targeting techniques to display advertisements that are more relevant to your interests. This involves collecting information about your browsing activity across different websites over time. While we benefit from advertising revenue generated through these networks, we do not control the specific advertisements shown or the targeting methods used. For more information about how these networks operate, please refer to their respective privacy policies.

Cookie Usage for Advertising

Advertising networks use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • Deliver advertisements that may be relevant to your interests
  • Measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns
  • Limit the number of times you see the same advertisement
  • Collect aggregate data about website traffic and engagement

You can control advertising cookies through your browser settings or by using our cookie preference center. For more detailed information about our cookie practices, please see our Cookie Policy.

Ad Personalization Practices

Advertising networks may personalize the ads you see based on your interests and browsing behavior. This personalization is designed to show you advertisements that are more relevant and useful to you. However, we understand that not everyone wants personalized advertising. You can opt out of personalized ads through your cookie settings or through the advertising network's opt-out mechanisms. Please note that opting out of personalized advertising does not mean you will see fewer ads, only that the ads you see may be less relevant to your interests.
