Affiliate Disclosure
Some links on Imgira may earn us a commission. It never changes your price, it never buys a favorable review, and we tell you where it applies.
Plain-Language Summary
Some links on Imgira may be affiliate links. If you click one of those links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission from the seller at no additional cost to you. Affiliate commissions help pay for hosting, development, and the continued creation of free tools and tutorials on this platform.
Whether a link is an affiliate link does not change the price you pay, does not change what you receive, and does not change how we evaluate the product. If a link is paid, we say so on the page where the link appears — near the link itself, not buried in a document you would never read.
The majority of tools and content on Imgira are completely free to use with no purchase required, and we do not use affiliate relationships to decide which tools we build or how they behave.
Where Affiliate Links Appear
Affiliate relationships are most likely to appear in long-form editorial content: blog articles, buying guides, comparison posts, and tutorial guides that reference paid software, hardware, courses, or services. Educational content about a workflow occasionally recommends a product, and when that recommendation links to a seller we have an agreement with, the link may be compensated.
They may also appear in curated lists — for example, a roundup of design tools, developer services, or productivity apps — where each entry could carry an affiliate relationship. Individual tool pages on Imgira itself are not affiliate-driven; the free utilities we build are ours and require no purchase.
Any page containing affiliate links carries a disclosure statement in the content itself, in addition to the general disclosure on this page.
Commission Structure & Your Price
Commission rates are set by the merchant, not by us, and typically range from a small percentage of the sale to a fixed referral fee. Commission arrangements may include programs such as Amazon Associates, software partner programs, and individual SaaS referral agreements.
Your price is identical whether you arrive through an affiliate link or type the merchant's address yourself. Merchants do not raise prices for referred customers. In some cases, our partnership may give you access to a negotiated discount or extended trial — when that happens, the benefit flows to you, and we note it on the page.
Commission earnings never influence which product we recommend first, whether we publish a negative review, or whether we update an article to reflect a better option. Editorial judgment comes first; monetization is applied afterward, where it fits.
How We Choose What to Recommend
Recommendations are based on what we actually use or have evaluated against clear criteria: whether the tool solves the stated problem, its pricing transparency, privacy posture, platform support, and long-term reliability. We do not accept payment for a review, and we do not sell favorable coverage.
If a product we previously recommended has declined in quality, changed pricing drastically, or introduced privacy practices we disagree with, we update or remove the recommendation. Affiliate relationships do not buy permanence in our content.
Where we have not personally tested a product, we say so, and we rely on documented specifications and reputable third-party evaluations rather than marketing claims.
Advertising vs. Affiliate Relationships
Affiliate links and paid advertising are different things. Paid ads (served through Google AdSense or direct sponsorship) are clearly marked placements where an advertiser buys visibility. Affiliate relationships are performance-based: we earn only if a reader completes a purchase after clicking.
Both can appear on the same site, and both are disclosed. You can read more about our advertising practices on the Advertise page and about cookies used for advertising on the Cookie Policy page.
Sponsored content — where a brand pays for a dedicated article or placement — is labeled as sponsored within the content itself and is never presented as an independent editorial review.
Legal Requirements
This disclosure is provided to comply with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's Endorsement Guides (16 CFR Part 255), which require that material connections between a reviewer and a seller be disclosed clearly and conspicuously, as well as similar rules in other jurisdictions such as the UK CAP Code and EU consumer protection directives.
A material connection includes any financial, personal, or professional relationship that could affect the weight a reader gives to an endorsement. Because we may earn commissions from some links, we disclose that relationship globally here and contextually wherever the link appears.
Questions & Updates
We may update this disclosure to reflect new partnerships or changes in applicable law. The date below reflects the most recent revision, and material changes will be highlighted on the site.
If you have a question about whether a specific link is an affiliate link, or about any relationship we hold with a vendor, ask us before clicking — we will tell you plainly. We would rather explain the relationship than have you discover it later.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I pay more if I use an affiliate link?
No. The merchant's price is the same for you either way. Commission comes out of the merchant's margin as a referral fee, not out of your pocket.
Does a commission affect your ranking or review score?
No. Recommendations are based on our evaluation criteria, and commercial relationships are applied after editorial decisions are made. We do not accept payment for a review or a ranking position.
How will I know a link is an affiliate link?
The page containing the link includes a disclosure statement near it, in addition to this site-wide disclosure. If a link's status is ever unclear, email us and we will confirm before you click.
What if I already use the product you linked?
Then nothing changes for you. If you later choose to subscribe or purchase through our link, we may earn a commission on that transaction — you are never charged extra for it.
