Affiliate Disclosure

1. Disclosure statement

CertBlueprint participates in affiliate marketing programs. Some links on this Site are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you purchase a product or service through those links. This is at no additional cost to you.

We are required by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and similar regulatory bodies to disclose affiliate relationships to our readers. This page, and the disclosures placed near monetized content throughout the Site, fulfill that requirement.

2. What this means in practice

When you click an affiliate link on CertBlueprint and complete a purchase on the linked site:

• The vendor (such as Udemy, Amazon, or Boson) pays us a small commission
• You pay the same price you would have paid without clicking our link
• No additional fees are charged to you

Affiliate commissions help fund the ongoing development and maintenance of CertBlueprint at no cost to visitors.

3. Editorial independence

Affiliate relationships do not influence which resources we recommend or how we describe them. Our editorial process is:

• Resources are evaluated based on community reputation, content quality, and alignment with the certification exam topics
• We include resources regardless of whether they have an affiliate program
• Affiliate links are labeled clearly in the resource sections
• We do not accept payment to feature or positively review specific products

If a resource does not have an affiliate program but is genuinely valuable, we link to it without compensation. The free resources section on each certification page exists for exactly this reason.

4. Current affiliate programs

CertBlueprint currently participates in or is applying to the following affiliate programs:

• Udemy Affiliate Program — online video courses

Additional affiliate partnerships may be added as the Site grows. This disclosure will be updated accordingly.

5. Advertising

In addition to affiliate links, the Site displays advertising through Google AdSense. Ad revenue and affiliate revenue are the primary means of funding this Site. Neither advertisers nor affiliate partners have editorial influence over the content you read.
