Advertising Disclosure

Last updated: 15 January 2026

Our Commitment to Transparency

At Brightwell, we believe in complete transparency regarding our advertising and commercial relationships. This disclosure explains how we may earn revenue through various advertising mechanisms and partnerships, ensuring you understand the nature of our content and recommendations.

We are committed to maintaining the trust you place in us by being forthright about our advertising practices and commercial relationships. All sponsored content and affiliate relationships are clearly identified, and we never compromise the integrity of our information or recommendations.

Affiliate Relationships

What Are Affiliate Programmes?

We participate in various affiliate programmes, which means we may earn a commission when you purchase products or services through links on our website. These programmes allow us to generate revenue while providing you with valuable information about products and services we genuinely recommend.

How Affiliate Links Work

When you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the seller. This commission comes at no additional cost to you. The presence of an affiliate relationship does not influence the price you pay.

Important: We only recommend products and services that we believe will provide value to our clients. Our recommendations are based on quality, reliability, and relevance to cleaning and home care, not solely on commission potential.

Types of Affiliate Relationships

We may participate in affiliate programmes related to:

  • Cleaning products and supplies
  • Home organisation tools and equipment
  • Professional cleaning equipment
  • Home improvement services
  • Related household services and products

Our Product Recommendation Policy

While we may earn commissions through affiliate relationships, our recommendations are always honest and based on our professional experience. We do not recommend products or services solely because they offer high commission rates. Quality, effectiveness, and value for our clients are our primary considerations.

Financial Relationship Transparency

Where appropriate, we clearly disclose affiliate relationships on pages containing affiliate links. These disclosures typically appear near the relevant content and clearly indicate that we may earn a commission from purchases made through the links provided.

Sponsored Content and Paid Promotions

Identification of Sponsored Content

We may occasionally publish sponsored content or paid promotions on our website or through our communications. All sponsored content is clearly labelled with tags such as "Sponsored," "Advertisement," "Paid Partnership," or similar language that unmistakably indicates the commercial nature of the content.

Sponsored Post Labelling Policies

Our labelling practices ensure that sponsored content is immediately recognisable:

  • Clear disclosure at the beginning of sponsored articles or posts
  • Visual indicators (badges, banners) to identify paid content
  • Distinction between sponsored content and editorial content
  • Transparent communication about brand partnerships

Brand Partnership Disclosures

When we enter into partnerships with brands or companies, we disclose these relationships clearly. Partnership arrangements may include financial compensation, free products or services, or other forms of consideration. These partnerships are disclosed where relevant to maintain transparency with our audience.

Content Authenticity Guarantees

Even when content is sponsored, we maintain editorial control and ensure that all information is accurate, useful, and aligned with our professional standards. We never publish misleading or false information, regardless of sponsorship arrangements. Our reputation and your trust are more valuable than any advertising revenue.
