Participation in Affiliate Programs

Pixel Craft participates in various affiliate marketing programs. This means we may earn commissions when you click certain links on our website and make purchases. These affiliate relationships include:

• Design tool and software providers we recommend to clients

How Affiliate Links Work

When you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you. The price you pay remains the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the provider. These commissions help support our website and allow us to continue providing valuable content and services.

Product Recommendation Policy

We only recommend products and services we have personally evaluated or believe will provide value to our audience. The existence of an affiliate relationship does not influence whether we recommend something. We recommend tools and services based on quality, usefulness, and alignment with professional UX/UI design practices.

Financial Relationship Transparency

When we discuss products or services where an affiliate relationship exists, we clearly disclose this fact. You will see disclosures near affiliate links or in contexts where we recommend affiliate products. This transparency ensures you understand the nature of our relationship with recommended providers.

Identification of Sponsored Material

Occasionally, Pixel Craft may publish sponsored content or paid promotions. Any such content will be clearly labeled as sponsored, advertorial, or paid promotion. We distinguish between our regular content and sponsored material to maintain transparency with our audience.

Sponsored Post Guidelines

When we accept sponsored content:

• The content is clearly marked as sponsored or paid promotion
• We maintain editorial control over how information is presented
• Sponsored content aligns with our values and is relevant to our audience
• We do not make false or misleading claims even in sponsored content
