Affiliate and commercial disclosure
This page states the commercial state of BaristaCritic accurately and plainly, including the current state, which is: none of it is monetized.
Current state
What this site is today
As of September 6, 2026, BaristaCritic is a holding edition. It contains no affiliate links, no sponsored content, no paid placement, and no advertising. It runs no analytics, no cookies, and no tracking scripts. Nothing on this site earns money today, and no third party has paid for coverage.
Future state
What will change, and how you will know
If and when affiliate monetization begins, this site will:
- Mark every affiliate link so it is visible to you, next to the link.
- Name on this page which programs we participate in, and state that we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.
- Keep editorial guidance separate from sponsored content.
- Update this disclosure page on the day monetization starts, before any link goes live.
Standards
The editorial rules that do not change
- We do not claim hands-on testing we have not done.
- We do not invent prices, ratings, testimonials, or availability.
- Where a claim depends on a machine, the manual and the maker are the source.
- We will not accept payment for positive coverage, and if a commercial relationship ever changes how this site works, this page will say so.

Common questions
Disclosure questions, answered
Does this disclosure mean you make money?
No. This edition makes no money and takes no commission. The page exists so the commercial state is always visible, including the current one, which is none.
Will recommendations change when you start earning?
The editorial rules above are the working standard, and this page will be updated on the day monetization begins, before any link goes live. Marked links and a dated disclosure are the mechanics that make that visible.
Do you use cookies?
No. This edition sets no cookies and runs no analytics. If that changes, this page will say so before the change ships.
