Advertising Disclosure
Last updated: 28 January 2026
Our Commitment to Transparency
At Gleamshire, we believe in complete transparency regarding our advertising practices and business relationships. This Advertising Disclosure explains how we may earn revenue through various advertising methods and partnerships, and how this relates to the content and services we provide.
We are committed to maintaining your trust by clearly disclosing any financial relationships that may influence the content on our website or the recommendations we make. Our primary goal is always to provide you with helpful, accurate information and excellent cleaning services.
Affiliate Relationships and Commission
Affiliate Program Participation
Gleamshire may participate in affiliate marketing programs. This means that if we recommend certain products or services on our website, and you make a purchase through links we provide, we may receive a commission from the seller. These are known as affiliate links.
Affiliate relationships allow us to earn revenue while providing you with recommendations for cleaning products, equipment, or related services that we believe may be useful to you.
How Affiliate Commissions Work
When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, the merchant pays us a small commission. This commission comes at no additional cost to you – you pay the same price whether you use our link or go directly to the merchant's website.
The commission we receive varies depending on the merchant and product type, but it helps support our business operations and allows us to continue providing helpful content and services.
Our Product Recommendation Policy
Important: We only recommend products and services that we genuinely believe could be beneficial to our clients. Our recommendations are based on:
- Our professional experience and knowledge of cleaning services
- Product quality, effectiveness, and value
- Feedback from clients and industry professionals
- Safety and environmental considerations
The existence of an affiliate relationship does not influence whether we recommend a product. We will never recommend something solely because we earn a commission from it.
Financial Relationship Transparency
Where affiliate relationships exist, we will clearly disclose this fact near the relevant content or links. You will typically see language such as "This is an affiliate link" or "We may earn a commission" to indicate when a financial relationship exists.
Sponsored Content and Paid Promotions
Identification of Paid Content
From time to time, we may publish sponsored content or paid promotions on our website. Sponsored content refers to articles, posts, or other materials that we are compensated to create or display. All sponsored content will be clearly labeled as "Sponsored," "Advertisement," "Paid Promotion," or similar language to distinguish it from our regular content.
Sponsored Post Labeling
We maintain strict standards for labeling sponsored posts to ensure transparency. Any content that is influenced by payment or compensation will be clearly identified. This includes direct payment for content creation, free products or services provided in exchange for coverage, and indirect compensation through affiliate relationships.
Brand Partnerships
Gleamshire may enter into partnerships with brands that align with our values and that we believe offer value to our clients. These partnerships may involve:
- Exclusive discounts or offers for our clients
- Co-created content or educational materials
- Product testing and reviews
- Joint marketing initiatives
All brand partnerships will be disclosed, and we will only partner with brands whose products or services we genuinely support and believe could benefit our clients.
Content Authenticity Guarantee
Our Promise: Even when content is sponsored or we have a brand partnership, we maintain complete editorial independence. Our honest opinions, professional assessments, and commitment to providing accurate information remain paramount. We will never misrepresent a product or service, even if we are being compensated to discuss it.
