Affiliate disclosure

Last updated: October 26, 2026

I may earn a commission if you buy through affiliate links on HeadsUpNotes, at no extra cost to you. You do not have to use those links to buy a product.

Impact and other affiliate networks

The planned affiliate program includes Impact and may include other affiliate networks or direct merchant programs. A network connects publishers with participating brands and tracks qualifying purchases. This statement does not mean that any particular partnership is currently active.

When a live affiliate link is used, the merchant or network may use cookies or other tracking to attribute a purchase. Their privacy notices and purchase terms apply after you leave this site. See the privacy policy for more.

Disclosures where you need them

Posts containing affiliate links display a disclosure near the beginning. Product cards and affiliate calls to action also explain that a purchase may earn a commission. The aim is to make the commercial relationship clear before you click.

Paid sponsorships, free review products, loaned equipment, or other material relationships will be identified in the relevant content. A general affiliate notice does not replace a specific sponsorship disclosure.

Professional relationships

Some articles cover brands the author has a professional relationship with. Those articles say so clearly at the top, before any product links.

Editorial approach

Recommendations should reflect the editor's honest assessment. A commission does not buy a favorable conclusion. Articles should explain their evidence, limitations, and the people a product is best suited to.

Prices, deals, features, and availability can change. Always confirm the current details with the seller before buying. The seller handles purchases, fulfillment, refunds, and product support.
