Affiliate Disclosure

Our Commitment to Transparency

At SolarPowerGenius, we believe in complete transparency about our business model. We earn revenue through affiliate partnerships, but this never compromises our editorial integrity or influences our recommendations. Our primary goal is to provide accurate, helpful information to help you make informed decisions about solar energy.

How Affiliate Marketing Works

When you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase or request a quote, we may receive a commission from the merchant or service provider. This commission comes at no additional cost to you – the price you pay remains the same whether you use our link or go directly to the merchant's website.

Types of Affiliate Relationships

We participate in several types of affiliate programmes:

• Product Sales: We earn commissions when you purchase solar equipment through our links
• Installation Leads: We receive payment when you request quotes from solar installers through our referral links
• Service Referrals: We may earn fees for referring customers to solar-related services

Our Editorial Standards

Independence and Objectivity

Our affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content, product recommendations, or review scores. We maintain strict editorial independence and base our recommendations solely on:

• Hands-on testing and evaluation
• Technical specifications and performance data
• Value for money and user experience
• Customer feedback and industry reputation

Review Methodology

All product reviews include detailed testing data, measured performance metrics, and honest assessments of both advantages and limitations. We never guarantee positive coverage in exchange for affiliate partnerships.

Disclosure Practices

In addition to this comprehensive disclosure page, we also provide clear notifications on individual pages where affiliate links are present. Look for phrases like "We may earn a commission" or "affiliate link" near relevant content.

Geographic Considerations

Our affiliate programmes operate differently across regions. We participate in separate programmes for:

• United States: US-specific programmes with dollar-based commissions
• United Kingdom: UK and European programmes with pound-based commissions

When you select your region using our region switcher, affiliate links automatically adjust to the appropriate programme for your location.

Data and Privacy

When you click on affiliate links, our partners may place cookies on your device to track the referral. This helps ensure we receive proper credit for referrals while allowing you to return to complete purchases later. For full details on data collection and privacy practices, please review our Privacy Policy.

Alternative Purchase Options

You are never required to use our affiliate links. You can always:

• Visit merchant websites directly
• Purchase from other retailers
• Seek quotes from other solar installers
• Use price comparison websites

We encourage you to shop around and compare options before making any purchase decisions.

Updates to This Disclosure

We may update this disclosure as our affiliate relationships change or evolve. We'll note any significant changes with a revision date. The current version was last updated in January 2025.
