Advertising Disclosure
Last updated: November 20, 2025
Our Commitment to Transparency
At Nimblewren, we believe in complete transparency regarding our advertising relationships and financial arrangements. This Advertising Disclosure explains how we may earn revenue through various advertising methods and affiliate partnerships, and how this might influence the content we present.
We are committed to maintaining our editorial integrity and providing honest, unbiased information about game development services. This disclosure helps you understand the nature of our business relationships and make informed decisions about the content you consume on our website.
Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships
What Are Affiliate Relationships
An affiliate relationship exists when we receive compensation for promoting or recommending products, services, or tools. This compensation typically comes in the form of a commission when someone makes a purchase or signs up for a service through a link or recommendation from our website. These arrangements help support our operations and allow us to continue providing valuable content.
Affiliate Programs We Participate In
We may participate in affiliate programs with various companies and services relevant to game development, including but not limited to:
- Game development tools and software platforms
- Asset marketplaces and resource providers
- Hosting and infrastructure services
- Educational platforms and training resources
- Professional services related to game development
How Commission-Based Links Work
When you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase or sign up for a service, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. These affiliate links help us generate revenue to support our business operations. We clearly identify affiliate relationships where appropriate and never recommend products or services solely for financial gain.
Our Recommendation Policy
We only recommend products, services, and tools that we believe provide genuine value to our clients and the game development community. Our recommendations are based on professional experience, industry knowledge, and objective evaluation. The existence of an affiliate relationship does not influence whether we recommend a product or service - quality and relevance to your needs are our primary considerations.
Financial Relationship Transparency
When we have a financial relationship with a company whose products or services we mention, we will clearly disclose this relationship. This allows you to evaluate our content with full knowledge of any potential conflicts of interest. We maintain editorial independence regardless of affiliate relationships and strive to present balanced, honest information.
Sponsored Content and Paid Promotions
Identification of Sponsored Content
Sponsored content refers to material that is created in collaboration with or paid for by a third party. Any sponsored content on our website will be clearly labeled as such, using terms like "Sponsored," "Paid Partnership," "In Collaboration With," or similar disclosure language. This labeling appears prominently at the beginning of the content to ensure transparency.
Brand Partnership Disclosures
We may enter into partnerships with brands, software companies, platform providers, or other businesses in the game development ecosystem. These partnerships may involve compensation in various forms, including monetary payment, free access to products or services, or other considerations. All such partnerships will be disclosed when relevant to the content being presented.
Editorial Independence
While we may create sponsored content or accept advertising, we maintain editorial control over all content published on our website. Sponsored relationships do not compromise our commitment to providing accurate, valuable information. We reserve the right to decline sponsorship opportunities that do not align with our values or that might mislead our audience.
Content Authenticity Guarantees
All content on our website, whether sponsored or not, reflects our honest professional opinion and expertise. We do not publish misleading information or make exaggerated claims about products or services. When we write about tools, platforms, or services, our assessment is based on actual experience and objective evaluation, regardless of any financial relationships.
