Compensation Disclosure

You should always perform due diligence (which in non-lawyer terms means conduct your own investigation) before buying goods or services from anyone via the Internet or offline, including this website and ALL other websites linked to this website.

1. Material Connection.

Unless it states otherwise, you should assume that all all references to goods (products) and/or services on AbTension.com are made because I, being the owner of this website (“Owner"), have an affiliate relationship and/or another material connection to the providers of the mentioned goods and services (“Provider”) and I may be compensated when when you purchase from said Provider. 

2. My recommendations are made in good faith...

I recommend goods and services on AbTension.com based in part on a "good faith" belief that the purchase of said goods or services will help purchasers in general. I have this good faith because I have either tried the product or service mentioned prior to recommending it, or I have researched the reputation of the Provider and, based on their history of providing these or other products/services, have determined to recommend the Provider’s products.

The bottom line is that I wouldn't recommend them if I didn't feel they were good product/services...and they must pass "the Mom Test."

This means...

I feel good enough about these products to recommend them to my own Mother...so you can feel good about them too.

Any representation I make about any of the products and servces mentioned on AbTension.com reflect my honest opinion based upon the facts known to me at the time said product or service is mentioned. Basically, if the Provider changes something after I have used it or reviewed it, I can't be held responsible for the change(s).

3. There is always a potential for bias and Due Diligence.

Whether consciously or subconsciously, there is always the possiblity that my opinion about a product or service may be partially formed in part based on the fact that I have been or will be compensated because of the my business relationships with the Providers.

In some instances, I might have a business or personal relationship with a Provider that does not involve me receiving compensation related to products and services mentioned on AbTension.com. However, the nature of the relationship is sufficient enough to establish a material connection between the me and the Provider.

Because there is a material connection between me and Providers of products and/or services mentioned on AbTension.com, you should always assume that I may be biased because of the my relationship with a Provider and/or because the I have received or will receive something of value from a Provider.

As I mentioned in the very first statment, you should always perform due diligence (which in non-lawyer terms means conduct your own investigation) before buying goods or services from anyone via the Internet or offline, including this website and ALL other websites linked to this website.

4. Compensation.

The type of compensation for recommending Provider's products and/or services varies. In some instances, I might receive complimentary products, services, or money from a Provider prior to mentioning the Provider’s products and/or services on AbTension.com.

In other instances, I may receive a monetary commission or non-monetary compensation when you take action based on the content of AbTension.com. This includes, but is not limited to, when you purchase a product and/or service from a Provider after clicking on an affiliate link on this website.

5. If you have any questions about products and/or services...

I want to make sure you are 100% satisfied with this website and any of the products and/or services mentioned on it.

If you ever have any questions, comments, concerns or feedback about ANY of the products and/or services found on this website, please do not hesitate to contact me directly at this link => Contact Us.

I will respond to your questions within 48 hours and will be happy to answer any questions you have before you purchase anything.
