Our Commerce Policy
How We Earn Your Trust Through Our Product Recommendations
At VitalCents, our mission is to empower you with the knowledge and tools to live a healthier life. When we recommend a product—whether it's a piece of fitness equipment, a nutritional supplement, or a wellness app—it's because we genuinely believe it can add value to your journey. This policy outlines our rigorous process and unwavering commitment to editorial integrity.
Our Reader-First Promise
Our recommendations are, and always will be, made with you in mind. Your trust is more valuable than any commission. We only recommend products that we would use ourselves or confidently recommend to our family and friends.
1. How We Select and Review Products
Our review process is thorough and multi-faceted. Before any product is featured, it goes through a stringent evaluation that includes:
• Hands-On Testing: We personally test products whenever possible to evaluate their quality, effectiveness, and user experience.
• Expert Consultation: We consult with our network of certified trainers, registered dietitians, and other health professionals to get their expert opinions.
• Scientific Research: We review the available scientific literature to verify claims and check for the efficacy and safety of ingredients.
• Community Feedback: We analyze user reviews from a variety of sources to understand real-world experiences with the product.
2. Our Business Model & Affiliate Links
We earn revenue through affiliate marketing links. This means that if you click a link in one of our reviews and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This model allows us to fund our work and keep our content free for everyone. However, these affiliate relationships never influence our product selections or the content of our reviews. For more details, please see our Affiliate Disclosure.
3. What We Will Never Do
To maintain our integrity and your trust, we make the following commitments:
• We never accept payment in exchange for a positive review.
• We never allow advertisers or commercial partners to influence our editorial decisions.
• We never recommend products that make unsubstantiated or dangerous health claims.
We believe our primary role is to be your most trusted ally in health and wellness. If you have any questions about our commerce policy or our review process, please contact us.
