Affiliate Disclosure Policy

Handshaking for affiliate disclosures policy

Last Updated: August 9, 2026

M. Storm Publishing LLC and Altered AI Technologies believe in transparency with our readers, customers, visitors, and users. Some websites, articles, blog posts, emails, reviews, recommendations, resource pages, videos, social media content, or other materials produced or operated by M. Storm Publishing LLC or Altered AI Technologies may contain affiliate links. This Affiliate Disclosure Policy explains what those links are and how they may financially benefit either company.

What Is an Affiliate Link?

An affiliate link is a special link that allows a company or affiliate program to identify when someone visits or purchases a product or service as a result of our referral. If you click an affiliate link and make a qualifying purchase or complete another qualifying action, M. Storm Publishing LLC or Altered AI Technologies may receive a commission, referral fee, credit, or other compensation from the third party. Unless specifically stated otherwise, using an affiliate link generally does not increase the price you pay for the product or service.

Our Use of Affiliate Links

M. Storm Publishing LLC and Altered AI Technologies may participate in affiliate, referral, partner, or commission-based programs offered by third-party companies. Affiliate links may appear in content including:

Articles and blog posts
Product and service recommendations
Reviews and comparisons
Books and publishing resources
Writing and author resources
Artificial intelligence tools and services
Software and technology recommendations
Hardware and equipment recommendations
Tutorials and educational materials
Resource pages
Email communications
Videos and social media content

Not every link appearing on our websites or in our content is an affiliate link.

Publishing and Author Resources

M. Storm Publishing LLC may recommend books, publishing services, writing tools, software, retailers, promotional services, author resources, or other products and services relevant to readers and authors. Some of these recommendations may contain affiliate links through which M. Storm Publishing LLC may receive compensation.

Technology and Artificial Intelligence Resources

Altered AI Technologies may discuss, review, demonstrate, compare, or recommend artificial intelligence platforms, software, computer hardware, technology services, digital tools, and related products. Some links associated with those recommendations may be affiliate links through which Altered AI Technologies may receive compensation.

Recommendations and Editorial Independence

Receiving or potentially receiving an affiliate commission does not guarantee a positive review or recommendation. Our goal is to recommend products, services, tools, or resources that we believe may be useful or relevant to our audience. However, experiences with products and services vary. A recommendation represents our opinion or experience at the time the content was created and should not be interpreted as a guarantee that a particular product or service will meet every person’s needs. Visitors should perform their own research before making purchasing decisions.

Affiliate Disclosures Near Content

Where appropriate, individual articles, posts, videos, emails, or other materials containing affiliate links may include a shorter disclosure near the relevant content. For example: “This content may contain affiliate links. We may earn a commission from qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you.” Such notices supplement this Affiliate Disclosure Policy.

No Additional Cost to You

In most affiliate arrangements, commissions are paid by the third-party company and do not result in an additional charge to the customer. However, prices, discounts, availability, promotions, and terms are controlled by the third-party seller or service provider and may change without notice. M. Storm Publishing LLC and Altered AI Technologies do not control the pricing or policies of independent third-party companies.

Third-Party Products and Services

Affiliate links may direct visitors to websites, stores, platforms, or services operated by independent third parties. M. Storm Publishing LLC and Altered AI Technologies do not control these third parties and are not responsible for their:

Products or services
Pricing
Availability
Shipping or delivery
Customer service
Warranties
Refund or return policies
Privacy practices
Website security
Terms and conditions

Purchases and transactions conducted with third parties are between the customer and the applicable third-party provider.

Your Choice

You are never required to use an affiliate link. You may choose to visit a company or retailer directly rather than using a link provided through our websites or content. Using an affiliate link is simply one way visitors may support the work of M. Storm Publishing LLC or Altered AI Technologies without generally paying an additional amount for the product or service.

Federal Trade Commission Disclosure

M. Storm Publishing LLC and Altered AI Technologies intend to disclose material relationships with advertisers, affiliate programs, sponsors, and other commercial partners in accordance with applicable advertising and endorsement requirements, including applicable guidance issued by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

Changes to This Policy

M. Storm Publishing LLC and Altered AI Technologies may update this Affiliate Disclosure Policy periodically to reflect changes in our affiliate relationships, websites, business activities, or applicable requirements. The Last Updated date at the top of this policy identifies the most recent revision.
