Affiliate Disclosure
Transparency about our affiliate relationships
Last Updated: April, 2025
Transparency Statement
In accordance with the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) guidelines and Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) requirements on endorsements and testimonials, we want to be completely transparent about our affiliate relationships and how we earn money through this website.
What Is An Affiliate Relationship?
StudentLearner participates in the Amazon EU Associates Programme, an affiliate advertising programme designed to provide a means for websites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.co.uk. When you click on a link on our site that takes you to Amazon.co.uk or another affiliate partner, and you subsequently purchase a product, we may receive a small commission from that sale at no additional cost to you.
Amazon EU Associates Programme Disclosure
StudentLearner is a participant in the Amazon EU Associates Programme, an affiliate advertising programme designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.co.uk. This means that when you click on our Amazon affiliate links and make a purchase, we earn a commission. The price you pay for products is exactly the same whether you purchase through our affiliate link or directly from Amazon.
How We Choose Products To Recommend
Our primary goal is to provide honest, unbiased information and recommendations that genuinely help students find the best products for their needs. We want to emphasize that:
- We only recommend products we genuinely believe will benefit our audience
- Our product reviews and recommendations are based on thorough research, personal experience, and feedback from other students when possible
- We do not allow affiliate relationships to influence our product recommendations
- We may recommend products even if they don't offer affiliate commissions if we believe they are the best option for students
Identifying Commercial Content
In accordance with UK regulations, we clearly identify commercial content. When content includes affiliate links that may result in us earning commission, we ensure this is clearly disclosed to you. Throughout the StudentLearner website, you may find affiliate links in:
- Product recommendation sections
- "View on Amazon" or "Buy on Amazon" buttons
- Text links within product reviews and comparisons
- Product images that are clickable
Additionally, we include the statement "As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases" in the footer of our website as a reminder of this relationship.
Other Potential Affiliate Relationships
While our primary affiliate relationship is with Amazon, we may occasionally form affiliate relationships with other companies that offer products or services relevant to students. If and when we establish such relationships, this disclosure will be updated accordingly, and the same principles of transparency and honesty will apply.
How Affiliate Commissions Support Our Website
The affiliate commissions we earn help support the operation of StudentLearner, allowing us to:
- Create and maintain high-quality, informative content
- Research and review products thoroughly
- Cover website hosting and maintenance costs
- Continue providing valuable resources to students at no cost
Your Support Is Appreciated
If you choose to purchase a product through our affiliate links, we genuinely appreciate your support. It helps us continue providing valuable content and resources for students while not charging our readers directly.
However, we completely understand if you prefer to search for products directly through Amazon or other retailers. Our goal is to provide you with helpful information regardless of whether you use our affiliate links.
