At My Favorite Health Depot, part of the Shop Learn & Thrive brand, we believe trust is the foundation of everything we do. Because your trust matters deeply to us, this affiliate disclosure explains how our affiliate relationships work, how they support this site, and how they align with our commitment to honesty, privacy, and transparency.
At-A-Glance
This disclosure is provided in accordance with FTC Endorsement Guidelines, which require websites and content creators to clearly inform readers when they may receive compensation for recommending products or services. The FTC (Federal Trade Commission) is a U.S. government agency that protects consumers and promotes fair business practices. Their guidelines are designed to ensure that readers can make informed decisions based on honest, transparent recommendations. By openly sharing our affiliate relationships, we follow these standards and reinforce our commitment to integrity and full disclosure.
Why We Use Affiliate Links In Our Affiliate Disclosure
Running a high-quality wellness resource takes time, research, and resources. We share original content, recipes, product guides, and educational tools at no cost to our readers. To make this possible, we participate in affiliate marketing programs with select trusted brands.
When you click one of these affiliate links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. This allows us to keep providing value for free while continuing to improve the resources inside our Thrive Wellness Community.
Affiliate Disclosure Commissions Support:
- Website hosting, design, and maintenance
- Content creation and editing time
- Graphic design, images, and video production
- Educational downloads, wellness guides, and cookbooks
- Community engagement and free resources
Affiliate commissions never influence the products we choose to feature. We share them because we believe they can genuinely help you live a healthier, more empowered life.
What Is an Affiliate Link?
Affiliate links are special links that let companies track which website referred a customer. Here’s how affiliate links work:
- When you click an affiliate link on our site, a small cookie or pixel is stored on your browser.
- This cookie contains only an anonymous referral ID and never includes personal information like your name, email, or payment details.
- If you complete a purchase within the cookie’s time window (often 24–30 days), the brand credits us for referring you.
- This helps us earn a commission while still keeping your personal data private.
You can disable cookies in your browser at any time or manage them through our Cookie Preference Center. Please note that disabling cookies won’t affect your purchase experience, but it may prevent us from receiving referral credit.
Our Commitment to Honesty & Transparency
We know your trust must be earned — and that means being open, honest, and consistent in how we share and recommend products. To ensure full affiliate marketing transparency, we follow clear principles designed to protect your confidence and support informed decision-making. Every product or service we feature is carefully researched, tested, or personally used so that our recommendations come from experience rather than sponsorship pressure. We also disclose any potential partnerships clearly in our content, allowing you to make choices based on facts, not hidden incentives. This honest approach is central to how we serve our Thrive Wellness Community, and it reflects our promise to put integrity before profit in everything we do.
- ✅ We only recommend products and services we have used, tested, or thoroughly researched.
- ✅ We never allow compensation to influence our editorial decisions or opinions.
- ✅ We clearly label affiliate links within blog posts, product pages, and emails.
- ✅ We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with affiliate partners.
- ✅ All affiliate relationships are governed by written agreements that limit data use to tracking and fraud prevention only.
- ✅ We comply with all privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA, etc.) and the FTC affiliate disclosure rules.
We believe transparency is good business. It builds long-term relationships and protects the integrity of the community we are creating together.
Commission Disclosure & Privacy Protection
This commission disclosure is also part of our larger privacy framework. Affiliate tracking is only used to record a purchase referral and to prevent fraudulent activity. We follow the GDPR Compliance Guidelines.
- We do not collect or transmit your payment data through affiliate links.
- We do not give affiliates access to your contact details or private information.
- All tracking data is anonymized and stored only as long as necessary to process commissions.
- We regularly review our affiliate partners to ensure they meet strict privacy and data security standards.
For full details about how we collect, use, and protect your personal information, please read our complete Privacy Policy.
How We Disclose Affiliates in Our Affiliate Disclosure Content
You’ll see affiliate links throughout our site, especially in blog articles, wellness guides, and curated product collections. From time to time, we may mention more than one wellness brand in a single article. Every recommendation is chosen independently with care and shared for educational purposes only — never because of a paid endorsement. We want you to always know when a link may generate income for us.
That’s why we:
- Include a brief disclosure at the top of blog posts that contain affiliate links
- Label affiliate links with a
*or a short “(affiliate link)” note - Mention partnerships or sponsorships when discussing brands we work closely with
- Use clear and plain language (not hidden fine print) so our relationship is transparent
This keeps us compliant with FTC affiliate disclosure guidelines and helps you make informed decisions.
Questions, Concerns, or Feedback?
We welcome your questions and feedback. If you’d like to know more about our affiliate relationships, how they work, or how they support this site, please reach out to us directly.

💚 Our Promise to You
Your trust means everything to us. We will always prioritize honesty over profit, transparency over clicks, and your privacy over everything else.
Affiliate income allows us to continue offering free wellness content, recipes, educational resources, and community support — but we will never compromise our integrity or your trust to earn a commission.
Bottom line: You deserve to know when and how we earn income. We are proud to be open about it — and even prouder to earn your trust every day.
