(Updated on May 16, 2023)
Firstly, and as always, thank you for visiting DENNERMedia.com. Sincerely. Should you have any questions about the information on this or the other pages, you are always more than welcome to contact us.
Ok, let’s get to it by starting with Affiliate Links/Promotions:
Federal Trade Commission Declaration
The FTC (Federal Trade Commission) in the US requires us to tell you if any links or adverts are paid for, or offer payment via commission. Although we are not a US-based business, we have declared how we work on this page to be completely transparent, as we may very well have people following us from countries requiring such disclosure who may wish to exercise links from our site.
Some of the links on this site are affiliate links. This means that if you use a link to purchase, you are contributing to income that we use in covering the costs of delivering the otherwise free, hopefully informative insight throughout the site.
PLEASE NOTE: Your price for any product(s) or service(s) linked in anything we do or mention, remains absolutely the same regardless of an affiliate agreement with the producer/manufacturer, retailer, or provider.
It is equally important that you know that we also take partnerships and advice very seriously. As such, we evaluate before recommending. In other words, our recommendation isn’t ever based simply on what we may be paid for recommending such product(s) or service(s)!
What Does “Affiliate Marketing” mean?
An affiliate is an individual or company that may sell or recommend products or services of another company, and who makes a commission from that sale.
The bottom line is that a website, individual or company (in this case, DENNER Media) is an affiliate of a company they create a relationship with, and who has agreed to compensate that website, individual, or company for any sales of their products or services made through them.
How We work As An Affiliate (and equally WITH Affiliates)
If you haven’t seen either our ‘Who We Are‘ or ‘What We Do‘ page(s), please let us introduce DENNER; We are the owner, creator and main authors for and of this site. We have created it so as to provide one central ‘landing site’ or ‘hub’, if you will, for all things related to DENNER, and the business we are in (now, and in future relationships, (joint) venture, and/or endeavours of whatever sort. A place where you can regularly visit in finding resources, opinions, studies, client announcements, relatable content, and the like on everything we’re involved in.
It is, in part, to ensure an awareness of media in general; from marketing, platforms, AI, branding (awareness, development, efficacy and relatability, etc.), and essentially all things ‘media’. While we may certainly also openly discuss how we do provide services which may also relate to our qualifications and/or certifications, this site is not at the discretion or under direction from any school or association, training facility, etc. in so much as the viewpoints and information we share or discuss within articles or pages.
It is also, in equal part(s) to provide context (and content) on the work we do that specifically relates to our clients (past, present, and future), and may step outside our realm of expertise. In such cases, it should be understood that in our sharing their work, we are not in any way proposing to be akin to them in qualification(s), training(s), or certification(s), and are merely sharing them as a point of interest and/or awareness (paid, or otherwise).
We also share news and exciting announcements around newly-authored pieces that we, or our clients may publish, speaking engagements we or they are doing (or have done), and more…all from one site.
Understanding that the founder’s journey in this space began as a personal project, you will appreciate that it is not underwritten, sponsored or supported by any institute or related organization which may otherwise be viewed as having the leverage to influence our opinions, nor the developments, advancements (such as the science behind today’s AI, etc.) we try to present in as open a nature as the industry itself provides us access to. Understanding that some do operate in a more ‘influential’ (or ‘influenced’) means, of course, we have instead chosen to operate (and thus also this site, and others related to our brand(s) in such a way as that fees for our services, as well as related affiliate forms of compensation provide income.
Again, however, neither the fee for service (or programs or packages), nor this affiliate form of compensation influence the information in or on this site. Those who know us know that we have opinions, we do our best to ‘do our homework’, and to be aware of ‘the goings-on‘ of our industry (and related industries), and strive for knowledge, always.
If we ever claim or appear to be in any form an ‘expert’ on a certain topic, product or service, we either are – through training and certification, or first-hand experience, or we’ve inadvertently misspoken in such a way as to have had you think so. If you’re ever not certain as to which it is, ask us.
As to endorsements or recommendations, we will only endorse products or services that we believe are worthy of endorsement, based on our experience, training, or certification (including such equal experiences, trainings, or certifications of a colleague – should they also be involved). Regardless, and as we remind you quite frequently (about us, or anyone/anything you’re seeing or hearing ‘out there’), any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should absolutely be verified by you, and through your own independent review, with the manufacturer, retailer, grower, or provider, etc.
So…what’s this all mean in fewer words? As a result of how we’ve chosen to earn supportive income in our various businesses, we are also (legally) considered an ‘affiliate marketer’ by way of ever sharing affiliate links with you (despite it being such a small part of who we are and/or what we do). And throughout the pages on this and related brand/owned sites, you will encounter affiliate links to products and services that we recommend as an affiliate (some may have no affiliation whatsoever, but are links nonetheless – but it would be so unbelievably time-consuming to individually show which are, and which are not, that for sake of time and resources, we say ‘all’ in order to be fully transparent with you).
Bottom Line: When you click on these links and purchase the product or service (et. al.), we may receive a commission from that sale. You pay no more (and may potentially pay less – if we’ve negotiated that with the provider, but assume you pay the same amount unless otherwise noted savings are expressed), and this is how we are compensated for the time and energy that goes into publishing content.
We choose affiliate links carefully, and only suggest products we either believe in, understand to be useful to those we serve, and/or buy ourselves. In some cases, we recommend a product we already own, or a service we’ve tried. And in other cases, we suggest services or products that others have tried and provided us seemingly qualified feedback on.
Yes, if you do buy any products or services through links on this site, you may be helping us to continue to bring you information on this site, and support the ‘bottom line’ of our Agency / business.
And, sincerely, We thank you for your support of our work.
That said, please, you can equally choose to ignore all links completely, and we’ll take absolutely no offence. None.
Always remember: You do not have to buy anything through any links or suggestions on this website. This website is and will always remain free to use and read and enjoy.
What Products And Services Am I An Affiliate For?
Special statement about Amazon products
We are registered with and are a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for us to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites and products.
Other Affiliates from whom I earn commission
From time to time we may also mention other people, products or services, Agencies, Speakers or Coaches, Practitioners or Colleagues, etc., in articles, ads, and the like. Should there be specific, ongoing partnerships of an affiliate nature, we will endeavour to list them (specifically) on this page and under this heading. Otherwise, as mentioned above in interest of time, you can assume they are all affiliated relationships, even though some or many may not be.
We should also make this invitation; Please DO NOT use this website if any of the above or contained information on this page or site is something you are in disagreement with. We have not knowingly nor intentionally forced you to utilize, recognize, regard, nor follow this site (nor any of the links, studies, patterns, platforms, businesses, people or professionals, information, or connected material) and so you should feel it is completely within your rights to simply disregard it in all or in part.
IMPORTANT REMINDER (which we’ve been asked to share again): Any product or service contained within any part of this site (or related branded sites) does not ever cost more for you to purchase through an offered link on here, than if you were to buy it directly from the provider, manufacturer, retailer, etc., bypassing my links entirely. Whatever you are directed to by said link(s) is offered at the discretion of the seller or manufacturer or provider of the product, who offers to pay me/us what they feel is a commission from their income reasonable so as to not negatively impact their bottom line, but provide them a greater audience than they may have otherwise had without our assistance or mention.
Ads by Google
“Ads by Google” are not selected or created by us at this time (if ever found on our site(s)), so if you see a Google ad and a web site about the same product or service, it is merely a coincidence, and is unlikely to be an ad drafted or endorsed by us in any way.
