Affiliate Disclosure

Apex Vitality is committed to transparency about how we earn revenue and how that revenue relates โ€” and does not relate โ€” to our editorial recommendations.

Apex Vitality Media ("Apex Vitality," "we," "us," or "our") may earn compensation when readers purchase products or services through links on our website. This disclosure explains how that works and the editorial safeguards we maintain.

Overview

Like many independent publishers, Apex Vitality generates revenue through affiliate partnerships, sponsored content, and display advertising. This allows us to produce in-depth, medically-reviewed buying guides without charging readers for access. We believe transparency is essential to maintaining your trust.

When you click certain links on our site and make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the retailer or brand at no additional cost to you. Affiliate links may appear in product reviews, comparison tables, buying guides, sidebar modules, and call-to-action buttons.

These commissions help fund our research, lab testing, medical review process, and editorial operations. The price you pay is determined by the retailer, not by whether we earn a commission.

Editorial independence

Compensation does not influence our rankings. Brands cannot pay for placement in our "Editor's Choice" or "Best overall" designations. Our editorial team evaluates every product against the same published criteria regardless of affiliate relationships.

Products are ranked based on factors including clinical evidence, dose adequacy, third-party purity testing, formulation quality, brand transparency, and price per effective dose โ€” not commission rates.

From time to time, we publish sponsored articles or partner stories created in collaboration with brands. All sponsored content is clearly labeled with a "Sponsored Content" or equivalent disclosure at the top of the article. Sponsored placements are separate from our independent editorial rankings and never replace our unbiased product evaluations.

Advertising

We may display third-party advertisements on our site. Advertisers do not influence our editorial content, review methodology, or product rankings. Ad placements are visually distinct from editorial content and labeled accordingly where required.

Product testing and reviews

Our team purchases products anonymously whenever possible and applies consistent testing criteria across all brands in a category. We do not accept free products or payment in exchange for favorable reviews. When a brand provides a sample for evaluation, it is disclosed in the relevant guide and does not guarantee a positive ranking.

Our commitment to readers

We publish this disclosure because we believe you deserve to know how we make money and how we protect editorial integrity. If you ever have questions about a specific article, ranking, or partnership, we encourage you to contact us directly.

FTC compliance

Apex Vitality complies with applicable Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines regarding endorsements, testimonials, and affiliate disclosures. We clearly and conspicuously disclose material connections between our recommendations and the compensation we may receive.

Changes to this disclosure

We may update this Affiliate Disclosure from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Material changes may also be communicated on the site.
