Affiliate Disclosure

What is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is a common and legal practice where website operators earn a commission for recommending products. When you click an affiliate link on our site and make a qualifying purchase, we receive a small percentage of that sale as compensation. This is how we fund the development, hosting, and continuous improvement of our free tools.

🛒 Amazon Associates Program

DogFoodCalculator.org is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.

Our Amazon affiliate tag is: solutionflowl-20

This tag is automatically appended to all Amazon product links on our site. You can verify this by checking any link — it will contain tag=solutionflowl-20 in the URL.

💵 How It Works — No Extra Cost to You

🤝 Our Editorial Independence Pledge

We take our editorial integrity seriously. Our product recommendations are determined by:

• 🎯Contextual Relevance: Products are matched to the specific tool being used. Cat food appears on the Cat Calculator, urinary supplements appear on the Urinary Stone Diet tool.
• 📊Sales Performance: We surface the best-selling products in each category because widespread adoption reflects real-world user satisfaction.
• 🚫No Paid Placements: We do not accept payment from pet food brands to feature their products. No brand can pay to appear in our recommendations.
• 🔬Nutritional Integrity: We do not recommend products that contradict our nutritional guidelines or could harm pets.

📋 Amazon's Product Rules — What We Cannot Show

To comply with Amazon's Operating Agreement, our affiliate displays follow these rules:

• We do not display Amazon product images (thumbnails) as this is prohibited without API access under Amazon's Terms of Service
• We do not display Amazon customer star ratings or review counts, as reproducing these without the Amazon API is prohibited
• We do not claim specific prices as Amazon prices change frequently
• All links include our affiliate tag and open in new tabs with noopener noreferrer for security

🌐 Other Potential Affiliate Relationships

In the future, we may participate in other affiliate programs beyond Amazon Associates. If we do, we will update this disclosure and clearly identify any non-Amazon affiliate links. Currently, all affiliate links on this site are Amazon links.
