DISCLOSURE + PRIVACY POLICY

Designs By Amanda Kay (herein referred to as The Website) may engage in affiliate marketing, which is done by embedding tracking links into the Website. If you click on a link for an affiliate partnership, a cookie will be placed on your browser to track any sales for purposes of commissions.

Amazon: Designs By Amanda Kay is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to amazon.com. As part of this Amazon Associates program, the Website will post customized links, provided by Amazon, to track the referrals to their website. This program utilizes cookies to track visits for the purposes of assigning commission on these sales.

Sponsorships: The Website owner is sometimes compensated to provide opinion on products, services, websites and various other topics. Many of you come here for guidance, tutorials or to learn something new and I want to take the experience one step further by offering you the links to get the products you need to recreate my projects. Therefore I take my responsibility as an affiliate very seriously and promise to recommend a product or brand that I use and/or approve.

Reviews: I believe in honesty and integrity, therefore, I will always give my personal opinion whether or not it shows a product or company in a favorable light. I will only endorse companies, products and services that I believe, based on my own experiences, are worthy of endorsement. The views and opinions expressed on this blog are purely my own. Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer, provider or party in question.

Many of my posts contain affiliate links. If you click on an affiliate link and buy something, I may receive a very small commission. It does NOT result in additional charges to you or cost you anything extra. Mentions of associated products/services/businesses within the content of my blog may or may not be noted as an affiliate in every reference. The affiliate money I earn per month helps pay the fees to keep this site up and running. Thank you so much for supporting Designs By Amanda Kay!

A third-party cookie is frequently used in behavioral advertising and analytics and is created by a domain other than the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies, tags, pixels, beacons and other similar technologies (collectively, “Tags”) may be placed on the Website to monitor interaction with advertising content and to target and optimize advertising. Each internet browser has functionality so that you can block both first and third-party cookies and clear your browser’s cache.

This data includes usage data, cookie information, device information, information about interactions between users and advertisements and websites, geolocation data, traffic data, and information about a visitor’s referral source to a particular website.
