What an affiliate link is

An affiliate link contains tracking information that can tell a retailer or service that a visitor came from this website. If the visitor makes a qualifying purchase or completes another eligible action, Permanent Lighting Guide may receive a commission at no additional cost to the visitor.

Current and future use

The site may add, remove, or change affiliate programs over time. A page containing affiliate links should include a clear disclosure near the relevant links or recommendations. The absence of an affiliate relationship does not mean a product is better or worse.

Editorial independence

• Potential commission rates do not determine our stated criteria.
• Brands and retailers do not receive guaranteed positive coverage.
• We do not claim hands-on testing, ownership, or installation unless it actually occurred and is described.
• Product availability, price, and terms must be confirmed with the seller.

Advertising is separate

Display advertising is different from affiliate links. An advertiser may pay an ad network to place an ad, while an affiliate program may pay after a qualifying referral. Ads are controlled in part by advertising technology and do not necessarily reflect our editorial views.

Your choice

You are never required to use an affiliate link. You can search for the product or retailer independently. Compare current prices, warranty terms, return policies, installer qualifications, and product compatibility before purchasing.

Questions

If a disclosure appears missing or unclear, send the page URL through our Contact page. We will review the placement and update it when appropriate.
