Advertising Disclosure
Last updated: October 30, 2025
Our Commitment to Transparency
At SysWorks, we are committed to maintaining transparency in all our business relationships and advertising practices. This Advertising Disclosure explains how we may earn revenue through various advertising and partnership arrangements, and how these relationships might influence the content we provide.
We believe in honest communication with our audience and adhere to applicable advertising standards and regulations, including guidelines from relevant regulatory authorities regarding the disclosure of commercial relationships.
Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships
Affiliate Program Participation
SysWorks may participate in affiliate marketing programs with various technology vendors, educational platforms, and service providers. When you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase or sign up for services, we may receive a commission or referral fee.
These affiliate relationships help support our educational mission and allow us to continue providing valuable training resources. However, our participation in affiliate programs does not influence the integrity of our course content or training recommendations.
Commission-Based Recommendations
When we recommend specific tools, software, books, or services that may be beneficial for IT professionals, some of these recommendations may include affiliate links. If you purchase through these links, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. Our recommendations are based on our professional assessment and experience with these products.
Financial Relationship Transparency
We maintain transparency about our business relationships. When we have a financial arrangement with a company or service we mention, we make efforts to disclose this relationship clearly. This includes:
- • Clearly marking affiliate links when present in our content
- • Disclosing partnerships with technology vendors or service providers
- • Identifying sponsored content or paid promotions
- • Being transparent about any compensation received for recommendations
Sponsored Content and Paid Promotions
Identification of Sponsored Materials
From time to time, we may create content sponsored by technology companies, educational platforms, or service providers. All sponsored content is clearly labeled as such. Sponsorship may take various forms including:
- ✓ Sponsored blog posts or articles about specific technologies
- ✓ Paid product reviews or demonstrations
- ✓ Branded educational content developed in partnership with vendors
- ✓ Featured placements for specific services or products
Editorial Independence
While we may receive compensation for sponsored content, we maintain editorial independence. Sponsorship does not determine our educational content, curriculum development, or training methodologies. Our primary obligation is to provide accurate, valuable education to our participants.
Content Authenticity
All content, whether sponsored or not, reflects our honest professional assessment. We do not make false or misleading claims about products or services, regardless of financial relationships. Our reputation for quality education is more valuable than any individual sponsorship arrangement.
