Advertising Disclosure
Last updated: 21 May 2025
We'd rather you knew exactly where any commercial relationship sits than have to guess at it. This page explains, openly, whether and how Azure Moon Spark earns from links, partnerships, or advertising, and what that means for the recommendations you read here. Our aim is plain: any influence on what you see should be visible, not hidden.
Affiliate relationships
Some pages may, on occasion, include links to materials, tools, or suppliers we genuinely rate. Where such a link could earn the workshop a small commission, we treat that openly:
- We disclose participation in any affiliate programme on the pages where it applies.
- A commission-bearing link costs you nothing extra; the price you pay is unchanged.
- We recommend things on their merits first — a possible commission never decides what we put forward.
- If a recommendation carries a financial relationship, we'd sooner say so plainly than dress it up.
Sponsored content
Most of what you read here is simply our own work, written by the workshop. On the rare occasion content is paid for or supported by a brand:
- It will be clearly identified as sponsored or paid where that is the case.
- Sponsored posts are labelled so you can tell them apart from ordinary content at a glance.
- Any brand partnership is disclosed within the relevant piece.
- We don't publish a view we don't hold; a sponsor's support doesn't buy a dishonest endorsement.
Third-party advertising
Where third-party advertising or analytics services are used, they may set their own cookies. We keep this limited and tied to your choices:
- Any external advertising or measurement networks operate under their own policies as well as ours.
- Some services may use cookies to tailor what you're shown elsewhere online; this only happens where you've allowed advertising cookies.
- Cookies used for advertising are described in our Cookie Policy.
- Personalised advertising can be turned off at any time through your cookie preferences.
User rights and controls
- Manage your preferences: adjust which advertising and analytics cookies you allow on our Cookie Policy page at any time.
- Opt out: decline non-essential cookies entirely, in your browser or through our preference controls, without losing access to the site's core content.
- Data for advertising: understand what is collected for advertising purposes in our Privacy Policy.
- Your rights: exercise the rights available to you under the privacy regulations that apply where you live, including access and deletion.
