Advertising Disclosure

Last updated: November 18, 2025

Our Commitment to Transparency

At Physics Lab, we believe in complete transparency about our business relationships and advertising practices. This Advertising Disclosure explains how we may earn revenue through various advertising methods and partnerships while maintaining our commitment to providing valuable physics simulation services.

We are committed to honest, ethical business practices and comply with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines and applicable advertising regulations. This disclosure ensures you understand when content may be influenced by commercial relationships.

Affiliate Relationships

What Are Affiliate Programs?

Affiliate programs allow us to earn commissions when users purchase products or services through links on our website. This means if you click on certain links and make a purchase, we may receive a percentage of the sale at no additional cost to you.

Our Affiliate Practices

We may participate in affiliate programs for:

  • Game development tools and software we use or recommend
  • Physics simulation resources and educational materials
  • Game development platforms and services
  • Professional software and development environments

When we include affiliate links, they are clearly marked, and we only recommend products or services we genuinely believe have value for game developers.

Our Recommendation Policy

Whether or not we receive a commission does not influence our honest assessment of products or services. We base our recommendations on actual experience, professional evaluation, and relevance to physics simulation and game development. Our primary goal is providing valuable information, not maximizing affiliate revenue.

Disclosure Notice:

Some links on this website are affiliate links. If you purchase through these links, Physics Lab may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This helps support our services and content creation. We only recommend products and services we believe are valuable for our audience.

Sponsored Content and Paid Partnerships

Sponsored Content Policy

From time to time, we may publish sponsored content or enter into paid partnerships with companies in the game development industry. Sponsored content refers to articles, posts, or materials created in collaboration with or paid for by third parties.

All sponsored content is clearly labeled and distinguished from our regular content. Labels may include "Sponsored," "Paid Partnership," "In Partnership With," or similar clear indicators at the beginning of the content.

Editorial Independence

While we may receive compensation for sponsored content, we maintain editorial control and integrity:

  • We only partner with brands and companies aligned with our values and relevant to our audience

  • We maintain the right to refuse partnerships that don't serve our audience's interests
  • Our genuine opinions and professional assessments remain independent

Brand Partnerships

We may establish long-term partnerships with companies whose products or services we use regularly and genuinely recommend. These partnerships help us continue providing quality services and content. All such relationships are disclosed when relevant content is published or discussed.
