At Hopscook.com, I believe in honesty, transparency, and trust—especially when it comes to sharing content, products, and recommendations. This Disclosure page is here to let you know how I operate, how I earn income through the blog, and what that means for you as a reader.
1. Sponsored Content
From time to time, I may collaborate with brands or companies to feature sponsored content on Hopscook.com. If a post is sponsored, it means I received compensation—either in the form of payment, product, or services—in exchange for writing or sharing something.
That said, I only partner with brands I genuinely enjoy or believe align with the values of this blog. All opinions shared are 100% my own, and I will always clearly mark sponsored posts with a disclosure at the top of the article.
2. Affiliate Links
Some of the posts on Hopscook.com may include affiliate links. This means that if you click on a link and make a purchase, I may earn a small commission—at no extra cost to you.
I use affiliate links to help support the time, tools, and ingredients it takes to keep this blog running. Products I link to are either ones I personally use, love, or would genuinely recommend to a friend.
Examples of affiliate programs I may participate in:
- Amazon Associates
- [Any others you’re part of—can be added later]
When a post contains affiliate links, I’ll include a short notice (usually at the beginning of the post) to keep things transparent.
3. Product Reviews and Gifts
Sometimes, brands may send me products to try out or review. If I share a review, I’ll clearly note if the product was gifted or provided for free. Just like with sponsorships, I will only share honest feedback—positive or negative—based on my personal experience.
Receiving a product does not guarantee a feature or endorsement.
4. Ads
You may see ads on the site, either in the sidebar, within posts, or through banners. These are served through third-party networks and help generate revenue to maintain the site. I do my best to keep ads unobtrusive, and I don’t personally control every ad that appears.
5. My Promise to You
Above all, I value the trust of my readers. I will always:
- Disclose when I’ve been paid or compensated for a post
- Be upfront about affiliate links and advertising
- Only promote products, brands, and recipes that align with the spirit of Hopscook
- Keep your best interest—and your taste buds—at heart
6. Questions?
If you ever have questions about something I’ve shared or disclosed, feel free to reach out via the contact us page or email me at [email protected] . I’m always happy to clarify.
Thank you for supporting Hopscook.com. Your trust means everything—and it’s what keeps the oven warm and the inspiration flowing.
