Welcome to FeedMyBirds. Transparency and trust are the foundation of our relationship with you, our valued readers. This Disclosure page is here to inform you about how we operate, how we may earn income, and how we uphold ethical standards in all content and recommendations on our website.
Please read this disclosure carefully to understand how FeedMyBirds is funded and how we ensure content integrity across the site.
1. Editorial Integrity
At FeedMyBirds, our priority is to provide accurate, science-based, and reader-focused information about birds and their ecosystems. We are committed to maintaining high standards of editorial independence.
We never allow compensation to influence the topics we cover, the reviews we write, or the advice we give. Any content sponsored or paid for by a third party will be clearly marked as such.
2. Affiliate Links
FeedMyBirds may participate in various affiliate marketing programs. This means that when you click on certain product links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission—at no additional cost to you.
Examples of items we may link to include:
Field guides, books, and educational materials
Nesting boxes or birdhouse kits
Wildlife-friendly garden products
These affiliate relationships help us fund the operation of the website, continue producing high-quality content, and support bird conservation initiatives.
We only recommend products we truly believe in and, in many cases, have personally tested or extensively researched.
3. Amazon Affiliate Disclosure
FeedMyBirds is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.
As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. Any Amazon product links on our website are part of this program.
4. Sponsored Content
From time to time, we may publish sponsored posts or collaborations with brands, birding companies, or conservation organizations. Sponsored content allows us to partner with relevant companies and share useful products or services with our audience.
When content is sponsored, it will always be clearly labeled with a note such as:
This post is sponsored by [Company Name]. All opinions are our own.
We maintain full editorial control over the content of these posts and only work with partners that align with our values and focus on bird-friendly, eco-conscious practices.
5. Product Reviews
We may review bird-related products, books, gear, or tools. These reviews may be based on:
Personal use and hands-on testing
Extensive research
User feedback
Manufacturer information
Some of these reviews may include affiliate links. However, our opinions are always honest and unbiased. We will clearly state whether a product was received for free, purchased by us, or provided by a company for review purposes.
We never guarantee favorable reviews in exchange for compensation.
6. Advertising
FeedMyBirds may display third-party advertisements through services like Google AdSense or other ad networks. These ads may appear in various areas of the website, including sidebars, footers, or within content.
While we do our best to ensure ad quality and relevance, we do not directly control the individual ads displayed. These third-party ads may use cookies to tailor content and measure performance. You can review our Privacy Policy for more on how cookies are used.
7. Donations and Reader Support
As part of our mission to promote bird conservation and education, we may accept reader support in the form of donations or crowdfunded initiatives. If we pursue such options, participation will always be voluntary and transparent.
We may also partner with non-profits or environmental groups and help raise funds for their campaigns. In such cases, we will disclose the relationship clearly and share where the funds are directed.
8. Guest Posts and Contributions
FeedMyBirds may occasionally accept guest posts or contributions from bird enthusiasts, ornithologists, educators, or eco-activists. Contributors are required to follow our editorial guidelines, and all submitted work is reviewed for accuracy and alignment with our mission.
We do not accept paid guest posts or link placement requests that compromise the quality or neutrality of our content.
9. Your Trust Matters
We are grateful for your trust and readership. Our goal is to remain transparent in all our partnerships, income sources, and editorial choices. By being open with you, we hope to build a community of nature lovers who share a passion for protecting and learning about birds.
