Advertising Policies

Our commitment to editorial integrity and our readers' trust is absolute. This document outlines our guiding principles for advertising.

Last Updated: September 05, 2025

Principle #1: Editorial Independence is Non-Negotiable

The core mission of Truth Sider is to serve our readers with unbiased, accurate content. We maintain a strict and permanent firewall between our editorial team and our advertising operations. Advertisers do not influence our editorial content in any way. Our editorial staff are not compensated based on advertising performance.

Principle #2: Ads Will Always Be Distinguished

We believe in absolute transparency. Our readers will always be able to distinguish between independent editorial content and paid advertising.

  • All advertisements, including display, native, and affiliate links, will be clearly and conspicuously labeled as such (e.g., "Advertisement," "Sponsored," "Paid Post").
  • The design and layout of advertisements will be distinct from the design and layout of editorial content.

Principle #3: We Reject Certain Advertisements

Truth Sider reserves the right to reject, cancel, or remove any advertisement at any time, for any reason. We will not accept advertising that we believe is:

  • In conflict with our core values of truth and integrity.
  • Promoting factually inaccurate claims, misinformation, pseudoscience, or "get-rich-quick" schemes.
  • Promoting illegal or harmful products, services, or activities.
  • Discriminatory, hateful, harassing, or containing personal attacks.
  • Containing malware, spyware, or other intrusive or malicious code.

Principle #4: Transparency in User Data

We may use third-party ad networks (e.g., Google AdSense) that use cookies to serve personalized ads. We do not sell or provide any of our users' personally identifiable information (PII), such as email addresses from newsletter subscriptions, to our ad partners. For a comprehensive overview of our data practices, please read our full Privacy Policy.

Principle #5: Guidelines for Sponsored Content & Affiliates

While we may accept certain forms of commercial partnerships, they are always governed by our commitment to transparency and reader value.

  • Sponsored Content: Any sponsored content must be relevant and valuable to our readers. It will be clearly labeled as such, and the advertiser is responsible for the claims made in their content. The editorial team retains final approval.
  • Affiliate Links: We may use affiliate links for products we genuinely recommend. If you make a purchase through these links, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Our recommendations are always independent.

Principle #6: Review & Enforcement

All advertisements are subject to review and approval by Truth Sider before publication. We reserve the right to remove any ad that is later found to be in violation of our policies. These policies are reviewed and updated periodically to ensure they meet the highest standards of integrity and transparency.
