Affiliate Disclaimer

qunex.online uses affiliate links as one way to monetize and support the blog. What does this mean for you as a reader? If you click on an affiliate link on our site and then make a purchase from that external website, we may earn a small commission or referral fee at no extra cost to you. Here’s what you should know about our use of affiliate links:

Honest Recommendations: We only link to products or services that I (Anna) genuinely like, have used, or believe could be valuable to my readers. My content is driven by my personal enthusiasm and experience, not by affiliate partnerships. I never recommend something just because it’s an affiliate link – if I wouldn’t recommend it to a friend, I won’t recommend it to you, regardless of potential commissions.

Transparency: According to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines, I clearly disclose on the blog when a post or page contains affiliate links. You’ll often see a note at the beginning of a post (or next to the link) stating something like, “This post may contain affiliate links, which means I may earn a commission if you purchase through those links.” I want you to be fully aware of these relationships upfront. Additionally, this page (and the broader Disclosure page) serves as a site-wide disclosure of our affiliate practices.
No Additional Cost to You: Using an affiliate link does not make your purchase any more expensive. The commission comes out of the retailer’s pocket as a reward for referring a customer. Whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the vendor’s site, you’ll pay the same price for the product. In some cases, our link might even provide you with a discount or special offer (and if so, I’ll be sure to mention it).
Affiliate Programs We Participate In: qunex.online may participate in several affiliate marketing programs. For transparency, here are examples of programs/partnerships you might encounter:
- Amazon Associates: qunex.online is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. This is an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and related sites. In practice, this means some product links to Amazon are affiliate-enabled – if you buy something after clicking, I earn a small percentage of that sale. Amazon requires this disclosure, and I’m happy to comply and let you know.
- Other Retailers: I may also link to products on other fashion/beauty retail sites (for example, Sephora, Ulta, LIKEtoKNOW.it, or other affiliate networks). Assume that any product link could potentially be an affiliate link. If you have any question about a specific link, you can always ask me. The bottom line is that I want to be open about the fact that some clicks may financially support qunex.online.
Your Support Matters: If you do choose to shop through my affiliate links, thank you! It helps me cover the costs of running this blog (web hosting, design, time spent creating content) and allows me to keep bringing you new posts. I truly appreciate your support. That said, there is absolutely no obligation to use my links. You are welcome to search for products independently – no hard feelings whatsoever. My goal is to provide value first; any commissions are a secondary bonus.

Integrity First: Commission or not, my opinions remain my own. If an item is sent to me by a brand or I’m paid to write about it (sponsorship), that will be disclosed separately (see the Disclosure page). Affiliate links do not equate to sponsored content; they are a way for me to potentially earn a passive income on recommendations I’d be making anyway. I also often share non-affiliate links when appropriate. Earning a small commission will never cause me to exaggerate the benefits of a product or hide its flaws. Trust with my readers is far more important than a commission.
