Ad & Affiliate Disclosure

1. Amazon Associates

This site is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program that lets sites earn a commission by linking to Amazon and completing a purchase. When we publish an Amazon link, it:

• carries our affiliate tag;
• is marked rel="sponsored nofollow";
• opens in a new tab (target="_blank").

Current status: our Associates account is still being set up, so the gear cards on the Switch 2 guide point to plain Amazon search results, carry no affiliate tag, and earn us nothing. Each of those cards is labelled NOT SPONSORED. Once tagged product links go live, this section will state it plainly and the cards will be labelled accordingly.

Under the Associates operating agreement we never display a static product price on this site. Price and stock are whatever Amazon shows live on the destination page.

2. Display advertising

This site uses Google AdSense to serve display advertising. Ad containers reserve a fixed height so content never jumps (CLS). Advertisers and creatives are chosen by Google; we do not endorse any third-party product or service shown in an ad.

There is never more than one ad slot inside the first viewport, and no ad covers navigation, buttons or table headers. If an ad script is blocked, the container collapses instead of squeezing the surrounding content.

3. Editorial independence

Tier ratings, weapon recommendations and every "is it worth levelling" call are based only on official patch notes and multi-source community discussion. No commission rate or ad deal can move them. We sell ad space, never rankings. When a weapon's tier changes, the page updates its updatedAt field so the change is traceable.

4. Programmes we are not part of

Beyond the two arrangements above, this site takes part in no game-publisher distribution programmes, has no paid partnerships with game studios, and accepts no payment to alter data or reviews. If that ever changes, it will be disclosed here before it takes effect.
