At Heritage Supply Co., operated by Austin Enterprises Group, we value transparency and trust with our customers. This Affiliate Disclosure Policy explains our use of affiliate links on our website (heritagesupply.com, the “Site”) and in our communications. While our primary focus is on selling our own products via WooCommerce, certain content, product recommendations, or external links (e.g., in blog posts, emails, or reviews) may include affiliate partnerships. These links allow us to earn a commission if you make a purchase through them, at no extra cost to you.
This policy complies with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines for affiliate marketing disclosures and is subject to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. By using the Site, you acknowledge this policy.
What Are Affiliate Links? Affiliate links are unique URLs that connect to third-party websites (e.g., partner retailers like Amazon or other e-commerce platforms). When you click an affiliate link and complete a qualifying purchase on the partner site, we may receive a small commission. This helps support the operation of our Site and the creation of helpful content. We only recommend products or services we believe in, but our recommendations may be influenced by affiliate programs.
Our Affiliate Partnerships We participate in affiliate programs from trusted partners, such as:
- Amazon Associates (for books, tools, or related products).
- Other networks like ShareASale or Commission Junction (for specific categories, if applicable).
These partnerships are disclosed clearly near any affiliate links (e.g., “This post contains affiliate links—we may earn a commission if you purchase through them”). We do not have access to your personal data through these links; any purchases are handled directly by the partner site.
How Commissions Work
- No Cost to You: Commissions are paid by the partner retailer from their margin, not added to your price.
- What We Earn: Typically 1-10% of the sale value, depending on the program.
- Tracking: Cookies or tracking IDs may be used by partners to attribute sales (e.g., for 24-90 days after a click). If you use ad blockers or incognito mode, tracking may not work.
Our Commitment to Transparency
- Every affiliate link will include a clear disclosure, such as: “Affiliate Link: As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.”
- We do not endorse products solely for commissions; selections are based on quality, relevance, and user value.
- If a product review or recommendation includes affiliates, it will be labeled as sponsored or disclosed.
Your Rights and Choices
- You are not obligated to use affiliate links—feel free to visit partner sites directly.
- For privacy concerns related to tracking, review our Cookie Policy or the partner’s privacy notice.
- If you believe a disclosure is missing, contact us immediately.
Prohibited Practices We do not:
- Use deceptive tactics to hide affiliate relationships.
- Promote illegal or harmful products.
- Share your data with affiliates beyond what’s necessary for tracking.
We reserve the right to update this policy or end affiliate programs at any time. Changes will be posted here with the “Last Updated” date. Continued use of the Site after updates means acceptance.
