Disclosure & Advertising Policy

How Cozy Found is funded: display advertising (including Google AdSense) and affiliate links that may earn us a small commission at no extra cost to you — and never change our recommendations.

Last updated: July 22, 2026

Cozy Found is an independent, reader-supported publication. To keep the site running and free to read, we support our work in two ways: display advertising and affiliate links. This page explains both, and how they do — and don’t — affect what you read here.

Affiliate links

Some of the links we share are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission — at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is exactly the same. We never receive your payment or card details; the retailer simply shares a small portion of their standard fee with us for the referral.

We participate in affiliate programs through networks such as Awin (which operates the Etsy program), and we may join others over time. Where a specific program requires its own wording, we include it in the relevant articles.

Advertising

Cozy Found may display third-party advertising, including through Google AdSense. Advertising helps us keep the site free to read.

  • Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
  • Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to Cozy Found and other sites on the internet.
  • You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party vendor cookies at www.aboutads.info.

For full details on the data we and our partners collect, please see our Privacy Policy.

Our promise on independence

Neither advertising nor affiliate commissions decide what we feature. Every recommendation is chosen on merit through our own research and testing — not on who pays the most. Advertising is served automatically and is kept separate from our editorial content. If something isn’t worth your money, we won’t suggest it.

Disclosure

In line with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines (and similar rules elsewhere), we disclose our use of affiliate links here and, where relevant, within individual articles. Thank you for supporting independent publishing.
