Affiliate Disclaimer
We believe in complete transparency. This page explains our affiliate relationships, how we earn commissions, and how it impacts you.
1. What is Affiliate Marketing?
Affiliate marketing is a performance-based marketing arrangement where we earn a commission for referring users to third-party products or services. When you click on an affiliate link on our website and complete a qualifying action (such as making a purchase, signing up, or depositing funds), we receive a small commission from the partner company.
Key point: This commission is paid by the partner, not by you. There is no additional cost to you when using our affiliate links.
2. How We Earn Commissions
We may earn commissions through various affiliate programs, including but not limited to:
- Brokerage platforms: When you open a trading account, deposit funds, or execute trades through our referral links.
- Trading tools & software: When you purchase subscriptions or licenses for charting, analysis, or trading tools.
- Financial products: When you sign up for investment platforms, robo-advisors, or financial services.
- Educational courses: When you enroll in trading courses, webinars, or mentorship programs.
- Advertising networks: Through display advertising (e.g., Google Adsense) where we earn per impression or click.
3. Our Transparency Policy
We are committed to full transparency in all our affiliate relationships:
- Clear labeling: We clearly mark affiliate links with disclosures (e.g., "affiliate link," "sponsored," or "ad").
- No influence on content: Our affiliate relationships never influence our screeners, analysis, data, or recommendations. We prioritize objective, unbiased information.
- Honest reviews: We only recommend products and services we believe may be valuable to our users. However, we encourage you to conduct your own research before making any decisions.
- No hidden agendas: If a product doesn't meet our standards, we won't promote it, even if it offers high commissions.
4. Our Affiliate Partners
We currently participate in affiliate programs with the following types of partners (this list is not exhaustive and may change):

We may add or remove partners at any time. The presence of an affiliate link does not constitute an endorsement of the product or service.
5. Impact on You (Zero Cost)
Important: Using our affiliate links does not increase the price you pay. The commission comes out of the partner's marketing budget, not your pocket.
- No extra fees: You pay the same price whether you use our link or go directly to the partner's website.
- No influence: Our content remains objective and unbiased regardless of affiliate relationships.
- Support us: By using our affiliate links, you help support Tick Screener's operations and allow us to continue providing free tools and content.
6. Our Ethical Commitment
We adhere to strict ethical guidelines in all our affiliate activities:
- Honesty: We provide truthful information about products and services.
- Integrity: We never recommend products we don't believe in or that we haven't researched.
- Transparency: We clearly disclose our affiliate relationships on relevant pages.
- User-first: Our users' trust is paramount. We prioritize your interests over commissions.
- Compliance: We comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including FTC disclosure guidelines and Indian consumer protection laws.
