📋

FTC Compliant

This disclosure follows FTC guidelines for affiliate marketing transparency.

🔗 1. What Is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is a way for website owners to earn a small commission by recommending products or services. When you click a special affiliate link on our site and make a purchase, we receive a small percentage of the sale — at absolutely no additional cost to you.

Think of it like a referral fee. The retailer pays us for sending customers their way. The price you pay is exactly the same as if you had gone directly to the store.

Example: If we recommend a ₹5,000 laptop bag and you buy it through our Amazon link, Amazon may pay us ₹100–₹200 as a commission. You still pay ₹5,000 — not a rupee more.

🤝 2. Our Affiliate Partners

We are currently affiliated with the following platforms and programmes:

🛒

Amazon Associates

India's largest online retailer. Most of our product links go through Amazon.in.

💻

Brand Direct Programs

Some brands run their own affiliate programmes we may participate in.

🌐

Other Networks

We may occasionally join other affiliate networks as our site grows.

⚙️ 3. How It Works — Step by Step

1

You read our review or recommendation

We write honest, research-based content about products we believe are worth your money.

2

You click our affiliate link

The link contains a special tracking code that identifies you came from our site.

3

You make a purchase (or not — no pressure!)

You decide freely. There is absolutely no obligation to buy anything.

4

We earn a small commission

If you do buy, the retailer pays us a percentage — you pay nothing extra.

5

Commission funds our content

This helps us keep TheTechBunker free, ad-light, and constantly updated.

🤞 4. Our Editorial Promise

We take our credibility very seriously. Here is our commitment to you:

  • We only recommend products we genuinely believe are good value for readers
  • Affiliate commissions never influence our star ratings or written opinions
  • We include products we don't earn from when they are the best option
  • We clearly disclose affiliate relationships on all relevant pages
  • We update our reviews when products change or better alternatives emerge
  • We will never recommend a product just because it pays a higher commission
Our reputation matters more than any commission. If we recommend something bad, you lose trust in us — and that's something we can't afford. Honest reviews are our business model.

🔍 5. How to Identify Affiliate Links

Affiliate links on our site may look like:

  • Buttons labelled "Check Price on Amazon" or "Buy Now"
  • Text links within product reviews pointing to retailer sites
  • Links in "Best of" or "Top Picks" lists
  • Links in comparison tables
⚠️ Not every link on our site is an affiliate link. We also link to manufacturer websites, news articles, and reference sources with no commission involved.

📋 6. FTC & Legal Compliance

This disclosure is made in accordance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), as well as similar regulations applicable in India under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and ASCI guidelines.

As required by law, we clearly disclose our affiliate relationships so you can make informed decisions about the links you click and the purchases you make.

💰 7. Absolutely No Extra Cost to You

We want to be crystal clear: using our affiliate links costs you nothing extra.

  • The product price is set by the retailer — we have no control over it
  • Amazon and other retailers pay us from their own margin
  • In some cases, our links may actually get you a better deal through exclusive promotions
