Advertising Disclosure
Last updated: November 15, 2025
Our Commitment to Transparency
At Support Core, we believe in complete transparency regarding our advertising relationships and how we may earn revenue from this website. This disclosure is intended to help you understand the nature of our business relationships and any potential financial interests that may exist when we recommend products, services, or third-party providers.
We are committed to providing honest, unbiased information to our users while complying with Federal Trade Commission guidelines and maintaining the highest standards of ethical business conduct.
Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships
Understanding Affiliate Programs
Support Core participates in various affiliate marketing programs. This means that we may earn commissions when you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase or take a specific action. These affiliate relationships help us maintain our website and continue providing valuable content and services to our users.
When you use an affiliate link, the price you pay remains the same, but we may receive a small commission from the merchant. This commission comes at no additional cost to you and helps support our operations.
Types of Affiliate Relationships
Product Affiliate Programs
We may earn commissions when you purchase products or services through links we provide to third-party vendors and service providers.
Service Affiliate Programs
We may participate in affiliate programs for services related to arcade support, technical solutions, and related business services.
Referral Programs
We may earn referral fees when you sign up for services or create accounts through our referral links.
Product Recommendation Transparency
Our recommendations are based on our professional assessment and experience. The existence of an affiliate relationship does not influence our honest opinions about products or services. We only recommend products and services that we believe will provide value to our users, regardless of whether an affiliate relationship exists.
Sponsored Content and Paid Promotions
Identification of Sponsored Material
We may occasionally publish sponsored content, paid reviews, or promotional materials from third-party companies. All sponsored content will be clearly identified and labeled as such. Common labels include "Sponsored," "Advertisement," "Paid Partnership," or similar designations.
Sponsored content means that we have been compensated by a third party to create and publish content featuring their products or services. This compensation may come in the form of monetary payment, free products, services, or other considerations.
Sponsored Post Labeling Policy
Clear Disclosure: All sponsored posts will include a prominent disclosure at the beginning of the content, making it immediately clear that the content is sponsored.
Visual Identification: Sponsored content may be visually distinguished through specific formatting, borders, or background colors to help readers easily identify it.
Consistent Labeling: We use consistent terminology across our website to identify sponsored content, ensuring transparency and clarity for all users.
Brand Partnership Disclosures
We may enter into long-term partnerships with brands and companies in the arcade and technical support industry. These partnerships may involve regular collaboration, content creation, or promotional activities. All such partnerships will be disclosed when relevant content is published.
Editorial Independence Guarantee
Even when content is sponsored, we maintain editorial control over what we publish. We do not allow sponsors to dictate the content of our reviews or opinions. Our assessments remain honest and objective, and we reserve the right to decline sponsorship opportunities that do not align with our values or audience interests.
Third-Party Advertising Networks
Display Advertising
We may use third-party advertising networks to display advertisements on our website. These advertisements are served by advertising partners and may be based on your browsing behavior, interests, or demographics.

Behavioral Targeting and Personalization
Advertising networks may use behavioral targeting to show you advertisements based on your previous browsing activity across multiple websites. This practice, also known as interest-based advertising or online behavioral advertising, aims to show you more relevant advertisements.
What This Means:
If you visit multiple websites about arcade games or technical support services, you may see advertisements related to these topics when you visit our website or other sites that participate in the same advertising networks.

You can manage your advertising preferences through your browser settings or by opting out of specific advertising networks.
