Advertising Disclosure
Last Updated: December 11, 2025
Our Commitment to Transparency
At Stratosync, we believe in complete transparency about any advertising, affiliate relationships, or financial arrangements that may influence the content on our website. This Advertising Disclosure explains how we may earn revenue from certain recommendations and partnerships.
We are committed to providing honest, valuable information to our community. Any advertising relationships or sponsored content will be clearly disclosed in accordance with applicable regulations and ethical standards.
Affiliate Relationships
What Are Affiliate Links?
Some links on our website may be affiliate links, which means we may earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase or sign up for a service. This comes at no additional cost to you and helps support our educational mission.
We participate in affiliate programs with various cloud service providers, educational platforms, and technology companies. These relationships allow us to recommend tools and resources that we believe will benefit your learning journey.
Our Recommendation Policy
- We only recommend products, services, and resources that we believe offer genuine value to our students
- The presence of an affiliate relationship does not influence our honest assessment of any product or service
- Our primary goal is to provide helpful, educational content that supports your cloud computing learning
- We will always clearly disclose when content contains affiliate links or promotional relationships
Financial Transparency
When you use an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the vendor. This commission helps cover our operational costs, allows us to create free educational content, and supports our mission of making cloud computing education accessible.
Sponsored Content
Identification of Sponsored Materials
From time to time, we may publish sponsored content, paid promotions, or brand partnerships. Any such content will be clearly labeled and identified with appropriate disclosures such as "Sponsored," "Paid Partnership," "Advertisement," or similar language.
Our Editorial Independence
- • Sponsored content is created with editorial integrity and reflects our genuine assessment
- • We maintain full editorial control over sponsored content and will not publish material we disagree with
- • Sponsored relationships do not compromise our commitment to providing accurate, helpful information
- • We will decline sponsorship opportunities that conflict with our values or mislead our audience
Brand Partnerships
We may form partnerships with technology companies, cloud service providers, or educational platforms. These partnerships may provide us with financial support, product access for review purposes, or educational resources. All such partnerships will be disclosed when relevant to the content being presented.

We may display advertisements from third-party advertising networks on our website. These advertisements are served by external advertising platforms and are not directly controlled by Stratosync.
