Affiliate Disclosure & Transparency Policy

Last Updated: October 21, 2025

Our Commitment to Transparency

At NonCow, we believe in being completely transparent with our visitors. This page explains how we make money and what that means for you.

Affiliate Relationships

Amazon Associates Program

NonCow 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.

What this means in plain English:

• When you click on product links on our site and make a purchase on Amazon, we may earn a small commission
• This commission comes at no extra cost to you - you pay the same price whether you use our link or go directly to Amazon
• The commission helps us keep this site running and create more helpful content
• We only recommend products we believe are valuable and relevant to our audience

How We Choose Products

Our product recommendations are based on:

• Relevance: Products that genuinely match our content and your needs
• Quality: We consider customer reviews, ratings, and product features
• Availability: Products that are actually available to purchase

Important: While we may earn commissions, this does not influence which plant milk types we recommend in our quiz. The quiz algorithm is based purely on your preferences and dietary needs.

Our Editorial Independence

Our content is created independently. We are not paid by brands to promote specific products or plant milk types. Our recommendations are based on:

• Nutritional information
• Common use cases
• User preferences
• Sustainability considerations
• General market availability

Your Choice Matters

You are never obligated to purchase anything through our affiliate links. You can:

• Use our information and buy products elsewhere
• Search for products directly on Amazon or other retailers
• Compare prices across different stores
• Choose any brand or product that works for you

Cookies & Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site. This helps us improve our content and user experience. You can read more about this in our cookie consent banner that appears when you first visit the site.

What we track:

• Page views and visit duration
• Which content is most popular
• General geographic location (country/region level)
• Device type (mobile, desktop, tablet)

What we DON'T track:

• Personal identifying information
• Your specific purchases on Amazon
• Credit card or payment information

Questions or Concerns?

If you have any questions about our affiliate relationships or how we make money, please feel free to reach out. We're committed to maintaining your trust through complete transparency.

Changes to This Disclosure

We may update this disclosure from time to time. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect the most recent changes.

Bottom Line: We earn small commissions when you buy through our Amazon links, but it doesn't cost you anything extra. Your trust matters more to us than any commission.
