Affiliate Disclosure
Affiliate Disclosure
Honest about how we earn — and why it never changes what we recommend.
🛡️ The SurvivElle Promise
SurvivElle was built on one principle: women deserve honest information. That extends to every product recommendation on this site. We will never recommend gear, resources, or products solely because they pay us a commission. Our editorial standards come first — always.
What Is an Affiliate Link?
An affiliate link is a special tracking link that lets companies know a visitor came from our website. When you click an affiliate link on SurvivElle and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission — at absolutely no extra cost to you. The price you pay is identical whether you use our link or go directly to the retailer.
📋 FTC Disclosure Requirement
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) requires that we disclose our affiliate relationships. This page serves as our site-wide disclosure. Individual blog posts and pages also contain disclosure notices at the top of affiliate content.
Our Affiliate Partnerships
SurvivElle participates in the following affiliate programs:
- Amazon Associates — We link to products on Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.
- Other affiliate programs — We may partner with additional retailers and brands relevant to emergency preparedness. All partnerships will be clearly disclosed.
Affiliate links on SurvivElle may appear in blog posts, gear guides, resource pages, and email newsletters. They are always clearly identified.
Our Editorial Standards
Affiliate commissions never influence our product recommendations. Here's exactly how we decide what to recommend:
Performance First
We evaluate gear based on real-world function, durability, and value — not commission rates.
Female-Specific Standards
We apply our SurvivElle Performance Checklist to every recommendation. Fit, function, and female-specific needs matter.
We Say No
We decline affiliate opportunities for products we wouldn't recommend to a close friend. Commission potential is never a reason to promote something.
Honest Reviews
If a product has significant drawbacks we will say so — even if we earn a commission on it. You deserve the full picture.
Sponsored Content
Occasionally SurvivElle may publish sponsored content — posts or reviews created in partnership with a brand. All sponsored content will be clearly labeled as "Sponsored" or "Paid Partnership" at the top of the post.
Even for sponsored content, SurvivElle maintains editorial control and will only partner with brands whose products genuinely serve our audience's preparedness needs.
Your Trust Matters More Than Any Commission
The women who come to SurvivElle are preparing for real emergencies. They need gear that actually works. Recommending something that underperforms because it pays a better commission would be a betrayal of everything this brand stands for.
