Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated Jun 25, 2026

Draft template — to be reviewed by qualified legal counsel before reliance.

This page is a non-final working draft prepared for internal review. It is not legal advice and should not be published or relied upon until a qualified attorney licensed in the relevant jurisdiction has reviewed and approved it. Bracketed items such as [Company Entity], [Governing State], and [contact email] are placeholders to be completed before publication.

Affiliate Disclosure

RUO Report (operated by [Company Entity]) is an independent, research-use-only publication that covers and reviews research peptides, vendors, and related topics for educational and informational purposes. We are a publisher, not a seller. We do not manufacture, distribute, sell, or ship any products, and we do not provide medical, clinical, dosing, administration, legal, or regulatory guidance. This disclosure explains how we may earn compensation, how those relationships are kept separate from our editorial judgment, and how you can identify and evaluate commercial relationships on our site.

How We May Earn Commissions

To support the cost of researching, producing, and maintaining our content, RUO Report participates in affiliate and referral programs. This means that when you click certain outbound links on our site and subsequently take an action with a third-party vendor — such as making a purchase or creating an account — RUO Report may receive a commission, referral fee, or other compensation. The price you pay is determined solely by the third-party vendor and is not increased because you arrived through one of our links.

  • Commissions, where they exist, are paid by the vendor, not by you.
  • Not every link on our site is an affiliate link, and many vendors we cover have no commercial relationship with us at all.
  • The existence, type, and terms of any affiliate relationship may change over time, and a vendor may begin or end a program without prior notice.

Affiliate Relationships Do Not Guarantee Favorable Coverage

A financial relationship with a vendor does not buy a positive review, a higher ranking, or favorable mention. Our editorial assessments are made independently of whether a vendor participates in an affiliate program. We may publish critical, neutral, or unfavorable findings about a vendor with whom we have a commercial relationship, and we may cover vendors who pay us nothing at all. We do not allow current or prospective affiliate partners to approve, edit, or veto our coverage before publication.

Sponsored Placements Are Clearly Labeled

From time to time we may accept paid placements, sponsorships, or other promotional arrangements. Where content is sponsored or where placement has been paid for, we label it clearly — for example, with a visible “Sponsored,” “Paid Partnership,” or equivalent designation near the content. Sponsored placement is editorially distinct from our independent reviews and rankings, and we aim to make that distinction obvious wherever the two appear together.

Ranking Methodology and Conflicts of Interest

Our rankings, comparisons, and “best of” style lists are intended to reflect the criteria we describe alongside them — which may include factors such as published third-party testing, transparency, sourcing documentation, responsiveness, and user-reported experiences — rather than the size of any commission. Where an affiliate relationship exists for a vendor that appears in a ranking, we intend to disclose that relationship. We continually refine our methodology, and we encourage you to read the stated criteria for any given list and to weigh our conclusions against your own independent research.

How Our Disclosed /go/ Redirect Links Work

Outbound links to vendors are routed through a transparent redirect path on our own domain in the form https://ruoreport.com/go/{slug}. These are disclosed, non-cloaked redirects: the destination vendor is identified in the surrounding content, and the relevant disclosure is presented on the page before you click. When you follow a /go/ link, our system performs a standard 302 redirect to the vendor’s website and may append campaign tracking parameters (for example, UTM tags) so that the vendor can attribute the referral.

  • We may apply the rel="sponsored" attribute (and, where appropriate, rel="nofollow") to affiliate and paid links, consistent with search-engine guidance for marking commercial relationships.
  • We may record aggregate, non-personal click counts on these links to understand which content is useful. This is described further in our [Privacy Policy].
  • The redirect does not change the vendor’s pricing, terms, or the product or service you ultimately receive.

Please Evaluate Vendors Independently

RUO Report’s content is provided for general informational and educational purposes only and reflects our review of available information at a point in time. It is not a recommendation to buy, use, or handle any product, and it is not medical, scientific, legal, or regulatory advice. Research compounds may be subject to legal and regulatory restrictions that vary by location. You are responsible for independently verifying any vendor, claim, certificate of analysis, or specification, and for confirming the lawfulness and appropriateness of any transaction before you act. Consult qualified professionals for medical, legal, and regulatory questions.

Changes to This Disclosure

We may update this Affiliate Disclosure as our relationships, programs, or practices change. Material changes will be reflected on this page, and we encourage you to review it periodically.
