LuckyDogNames.com (“Lucky Dog Names,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) may participate in affiliate marketing programs. This means that some of the links on this website may be affiliate links.
We believe in being transparent with our readers about how LuckyDogNames.com may earn money.
What Are Affiliate Links?
An affiliate link is a special link that allows us to receive a commission if you click the link and subsequently make a qualifying purchase or complete another qualifying action with the retailer, merchant, or service provider.
When you use an affiliate link on LuckyDogNames.com, you generally pay the same price you would have paid if you had visited the retailer directly.
The retailer or affiliate network may pay Lucky Dog Names a commission for referring you.
How Affiliate Commissions Work
If you click an affiliate link on LuckyDogNames.com and make a qualifying purchase or take another qualifying action, we may receive a commission.
For example, if we recommend a dog product and provide an affiliate link to a retailer, the retailer may record that you came from LuckyDogNames.com. If you subsequently make a qualifying purchase, we may receive a commission.
The commission may come from the retailer, manufacturer, affiliate network, or another company participating in the affiliate program.
The amount and terms of any commission may vary depending on the affiliate program and the transaction.
Our Affiliate Relationships
LuckyDogNames.com may participate in affiliate programs offered by retailers, manufacturers, product providers, and affiliate networks.
We may add or remove affiliate relationships over time.
Some products, services, or retailers mentioned on LuckyDogNames.com may have an affiliate relationship with us, while others may not.
A link to a product or retailer does not necessarily mean that we receive compensation from that particular link.
How We Identify Affiliate Links
Where appropriate, affiliate links may be identified using language such as:
“This post contains affiliate links. If you make a purchase through one of these links, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.”
We may also place a similar disclosure near a product recommendation, product list, button, or other affiliate link.
A general disclosure on this page does not replace the need for clear disclosures near affiliate recommendations or links when appropriate.
The Federal Trade Commission recommends that affiliate relationships be disclosed clearly and conspicuously and that disclosures be placed close enough to the recommendation or affiliate link for readers to notice the relationship. Federal Trade Commission
Our Recommendations
We aim to provide useful information and recommendations to help dog owners make informed decisions.
Affiliate compensation does not mean that we will recommend a product simply because it has an affiliate program.
Where we recommend products, we strive to provide information that we believe is useful and relevant to our readers.
However, you should always conduct your own research before purchasing a product or service.
Product prices, availability, features, specifications, reviews, and other information can change over time. We cannot guarantee that information about a third-party product or service will always be current or complete.
No Additional Cost to You
Using an affiliate link on LuckyDogNames.com generally does not increase the price you pay.
The retailer or affiliate network may compensate Lucky Dog Names separately for referring qualifying customers or transactions.
In other words, when an affiliate relationship applies, you generally pay the same price whether you use our affiliate link or visit the retailer directly.
Affiliate Cookies and Tracking
When you click an affiliate link, the retailer or affiliate network may use cookies or similar technologies to recognize that you were referred from LuckyDogNames.com.
These technologies may be used to:
- Record the referral
- Attribute a qualifying purchase or action
- Calculate commissions
- Prevent fraudulent activity
- Measure the performance of affiliate links
- Maintain the affiliate relationship
The use of cookies and similar technologies is controlled by the applicable privacy policies of the retailer or affiliate network.
For more information about cookies and other tracking technologies used on LuckyDogNames.com, please see our Privacy Policy.
Third-Party Retailers and Websites
Affiliate links may take you from LuckyDogNames.com to third-party websites.
These websites may include retailers, manufacturers, marketplaces, service providers, or affiliate networks.
Once you leave LuckyDogNames.com, the third party’s own:
- Privacy policy
- Terms of use
- Return policy
- Refund policy
- Shipping policy
- Warranty
- Pricing
- Other policies
will apply.
LuckyDogNames.com does not control third-party websites and is not responsible for their content, policies, products, services, transactions, or privacy practices.
We encourage you to review the applicable policies before completing a purchase.
Product Purchases
LuckyDogNames.com does not sell most of the products that may be discussed or recommended on this website.
When you click an affiliate link and make a purchase from a third-party retailer, your transaction is with that retailer, not with Lucky Dog Names.
The retailer is responsible for:
- Processing your order
- Charging your payment method
- Shipping the product
- Handling returns
- Providing refunds
- Honoring warranties
- Providing customer service
- Addressing product-related complaints
Please contact the retailer directly regarding issues with a purchase.
Honest Opinions and Experiences
Where we express an opinion about a product or service, that opinion is intended to reflect our genuine assessment based on the information and experience available to us.
We do not intentionally make false or misleading claims about products or services.
We will not claim to have personally used a product if we have not actually used it.
The Federal Trade Commission’s Endorsement Guides state that endorsements should reflect the endorser’s honest opinions and experiences and that material financial relationships should be disclosed. Federal Trade Commission
Compensation Does Not Guarantee a Positive Review
Receiving or potentially receiving an affiliate commission does not guarantee that a product will receive a positive review or recommendation.
Products may be recommended, mentioned, compared, or discussed based on their relevance to the subject of an article.
Affiliate compensation may be one factor in how we monetize the website, but it is not intended to replace honest and useful information.
Other Forms of Compensation
In addition to affiliate commissions, LuckyDogNames.com may potentially receive other forms of compensation or benefits in connection with products or services mentioned on the website.
For example, in some circumstances we may receive:
- Free or discounted products
- Promotional opportunities
- Other benefits or compensation
If we receive a material connection that could affect how a reasonable reader evaluates a recommendation, we will disclose that relationship as appropriate.
The FTC considers financial payments, free or discounted products, and certain other benefits to be potential material connections that may require disclosure. Federal Trade Commission
Advertising
LuckyDogNames.com may also display advertisements through third-party advertising services, including Google AdSense.
Advertising revenue is separate from affiliate commissions.
Advertisements displayed on the website do not necessarily represent an endorsement by Lucky Dog Names of the advertised company, product, or service.
For information about advertising cookies, analytics, and other technologies used on the website, please see our Privacy Policy.
Your Choice
You are never required to use an affiliate link.
If you prefer not to use an affiliate link, you can visit the retailer’s website directly.
Whether you use an affiliate link is entirely your choice.
