Affiliate Disclosure
Some of the links contained on this website are affiliate links. If you click on one of those links and make a purchase, I get a tiny commission at NO cost to you. I only choose companies that I either originally bought from before being an affiliate, or that I genuinely support and would buy products from. I thoroughly do my research before applying to become an affiliate for a company. In fact, since I have a working relationship with most of these companies you get a bigger discount and longer free trials then publicly offered. Some posts on this website are also “sponsored posts” meaning I get paid in cash or free product to review or promote the respective company’s products.
If you do not understand or agree with any of these conditions, please ask for further clarification before you order any products or materials by contacting legal@happilyhedy.com.
