HWVibes is free to read. This page explains how affiliate links and advertising help pay for it, and the rules we follow so that money never shapes our health content.
Last updated: 24 September 2026
Affiliate links
Some HWVibes pages may contain affiliate links. An affiliate link is a tracked link to a retailer or service. If you click one and make a purchase, the retailer may pay us a small commission.
- Plain statement: HWVibes may earn from qualifying purchases made through links on this site, where applicable.
- No extra cost: the price you pay is the same whether or not you use our link.
- Disclosed near the link: pages with affiliate links carry a clear disclosure near the link, and before you click, not only at the bottom of the page or on this page.
- No paid coverage: we are not paid to write about products, and no retailer or brand sees an article before it is published.
This disclosure is intended to meet the spirit of the US Federal Trade Commission’s endorsement guidance and the Advertising Standards Council of India’s guidelines on disclosing material connections: you should always know when we could benefit from a link.
Our rules
- We never recommend a product because it pays better, or pays at all.
- We do not place affiliate links on medical topics where a purchase could delay proper care.
- We do not monetise symptoms, diagnoses or disease management.
- We do not sell supplements, cures, detoxes or test kits, and we take no commission on them.
- Medical review is never sponsored. Our medical reviewer, Dr. Hena A. Ansari, has no financial interest in ads or links.
- We disclose before you click.
If a link would break any of these rules, we remove the link, not the rule. Our Editorial Policy and External Links Policy explain how we choose sources and links more generally.
Health products and your doctor
HWVibes provides general information for education only. It is not medical advice and is not a substitute for a doctor. A product mentioned on our site, whether or not it is linked, is never a substitute for medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
Please consult your own doctor or a qualified professional before buying or using any health product, device or supplement, including everyday items such as heating pads mentioned in a general article. What is safe for one person may not be safe for another, particularly if you are pregnant, have a medical condition or take medicines.
Retailers are responsible for their own products, prices, descriptions and delivery. To the fullest extent permitted by law, HWVibes is not responsible for any product you buy or for any outcome if you choose to use it. See our Medical Disclaimer and Terms of Service.
Advertising
We use or may use display ads from third-party networks, including Google AdSense. These networks may use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this and other websites. We do not choose individual ads, and an ad is not an endorsement. If you see a misleading or inappropriate ad, please report it so we can block it or its category.
Our full rules, including the health-related ad categories we block, are in our Advertising Policy. To manage personalised ads, visit Google Ads Settings or read our Privacy Policy.
Sponsored content
We have not published sponsored content so far. If we ever do, it will be labelled unmistakably at the top of the page, and we will not publish it if it conflicts with our editorial or safety standards.
Why we take money at all
Research, writing, expert review and hosting cost money. Ads and occasional affiliate links let us keep HWVibes free to read, without a paywall and without a sponsor dictating which topics we cover or what we say about them.
