AppsChamp ("we", "us") is a participant in affiliate marketing programmes. This page explains our affiliate relationships in full, as required by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) under 16 CFR Part 255, and similar regulations in other jurisdictions.

1. What Are Affiliate Links?

Some links on appschamp.com are "affiliate links". This means that if you click on a link and subsequently make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the product or service vendor. This commission comes at no additional cost to you — you pay the same price whether or not you use our affiliate link.

2. Which Links Are Affiliate Links?

Affiliate links are generally found in:

• "Get Deal", "Get Best Price", "Visit Site", or similar call-to-action buttons within review cards.
• Text links within article body content where a product is recommended.
• Comparison tables.
• Deal and coupon boxes.

We use link management software (ThirstyAffiliates) to manage and cloak our affiliate links. Cloaked links typically begin with appschamp.com/go/.

3. Affiliate Programmes We Participate In

We work with a variety of affiliate networks and direct programmes, which may include (but are not limited to):

• Individual software vendor affiliate programmes (antivirus, VPN, password manager, and backup software companies)
• Commission Junction (CJ Affiliate)
• ShareASale
• Impact Radius
• Awin
• Amazon Associates

4. Editorial Independence

Our editorial content — including reviews, scores, comparisons, and recommendations — is completely independent of our affiliate relationships. We apply the same testing methodology and scoring criteria to every product regardless of the commission rate offered. No vendor pays for a positive review, a specific score, or a top placement in a list.

Products are sometimes excluded from our recommendations solely because they did not meet our quality threshold, even when a lucrative affiliate programme exists.

5. Receiving Products for Review

Occasionally, software vendors provide us with complimentary licences for review purposes. We always disclose this where relevant. Receiving a free product does not guarantee a positive review or influence the score we assign.

6. Compliance

This disclosure is made in accordance with:

• FTC Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials (16 CFR Part 255)
• UK Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) guidelines
• EU Directive on Unfair Commercial Practices
