Advertising Disclosure

Last updated: December 6, 2024

Our Commitment to Transparency

At Bersih Sempurna, we believe in complete transparency regarding our advertising relationships and financial arrangements. This disclosure explains how we may earn revenue through various advertising and partnership mechanisms on our website.

We are committed to maintaining the trust you place in us by being open about our business relationships and ensuring that any advertising or sponsored content is clearly identified. Our recommendations and content are based on our professional expertise and are not influenced solely by financial considerations.

Affiliate Relationships

Affiliate Program Participation

Bersih Sempurna may participate in affiliate marketing programs with various suppliers and service providers. This means we may earn commissions when you click on certain links and make purchases through those links.

Affiliate relationships may include partnerships with suppliers of cleaning equipment, facility management software, safety equipment providers, and other business services relevant to facility maintenance and operations.

Commission-Based Link Explanations

When we include affiliate links on our website:

  • We may receive a commission if you make a purchase through the link
  • The commission comes from the vendor, not from you
  • You pay the same price whether you use our link or go directly to the vendor
  • Commission rates vary by vendor and product category
  • We only recommend products and services we believe provide value

Product Recommendation Policies

Our product and service recommendations are based on:

  • Professional experience and industry expertise
  • Quality, reliability, and performance of products
  • Value proposition for our clients and facility managers
  • Compatibility with various facility types and requirements
  • Feedback from our team and industry professionals

While we may earn commissions, this does not influence our honest assessment of products and services. We will not recommend products solely because of higher commission rates.

Financial Relationship Transparency

We maintain transparency about our affiliate relationships by clearly disclosing when content contains affiliate links. When we have a financial relationship with a company we mention or recommend, we will include a disclosure statement either within the content or at the beginning of the relevant section.

Sponsored Content

Identification of Paid Content

Any content on our website that has been paid for by a third party will be clearly identified as sponsored, promoted, or advertising content. We use several methods to identify sponsored content:

  • Clear labels such as "Sponsored," "Promoted," "Advertisement," or "Paid Partnership"
  • Visual distinction through borders, backgrounds, or formatting
  • Disclosure statements at the beginning of content
  • Attribution to the sponsoring company or brand

Sponsored Post Labeling Policies

Our sponsored content labeling follows these principles:

  • Disclosures are prominent and placed before the main content
  • Language is clear and unambiguous
  • Labels remain visible throughout the user's interaction with the content
  • Disclosures cannot be easily overlooked or misunderstood
  • Mobile and desktop versions both include clear disclosures

Brand Partnership Disclosures

When we enter into partnerships with brands or companies, we disclose these relationships to our audience. Partnership arrangements may include financial compensation, free products or services, or other consideration. Even when we receive benefits from partners, we maintain editorial independence and provide honest assessments based on our professional expertise.

Content Authenticity Guarantees

We guarantee that:

  • Sponsored content reflects our honest opinions and professional assessment
  • We retain editorial control over all content, including sponsored material
  • Sponsors do not dictate content, conclusions, or recommendations
  • We only accept sponsorships from companies whose products or services we can authentically endorse
  • Our reputation and credibility remain our highest priorities
