Disclosure Policy

Last Updated: July 01, 2025

The trust of our readers is the most important asset we have at Pure Cooking Joy. We believe in being completely transparent about how this website operates and generates income. The goal of this site is to provide you with delicious, high-quality recipes and cooking inspiration, and running it requires a significant investment of time, effort, and money.

To support this work, we engage in various forms of monetization. This policy is to inform you about these relationships and make it clear that our commitment to providing honest, unbiased content is always our top priority.

Pure Cooking Joy participates in various affiliate marketing programs, which means we may get paid commissions on products purchased through our links to retailer sites. This is at no extra cost to you.

When you click on an affiliate link on our site (for a kitchen tool, an ingredient, a cookbook, etc.) and make a purchase, we receive a small commission from the retailer. This is one of the primary ways we keep Pure Cooking Joy running, and we are deeply grateful for your support when you choose to use our links.

Please note the following:

  • We only link to products and services that we personally use, love, and can genuinely recommend. Our first priority is always providing value and resources to you, our readers.
  • Our participation in these programs does not influence the content we create or the opinions we express.
  • Pure Cooking Joy is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.

Any post containing affiliate links will be clearly identified at the top.

From time to time, we may partner with brands and companies that we believe are a good fit for Pure Cooking Joy and our audience. These collaborations may come in the form of a sponsored blog post, social media post, or video.

When a piece of content is sponsored, it means we have received compensation (monetary or otherwise) to create it. We are very selective about the brands we work with and will only partner with those whose products or values align with ours.

All sponsored content will be clearly and conspicuously disclosed at the beginning of the post, in accordance with FTC guidelines. Rest assured that even when content is sponsored, all opinions, thoughts, and experiences shared are entirely our own and are not influenced by the sponsoring brand.

Product Reviews & Gifts

Occasionally, we may be sent products free of charge by brands for review purposes. Receiving a product does not guarantee a positive review or even a mention on the site. We will always provide our honest and unbiased opinion based on our experience with the product. If we love it, we’ll share it with you. If we don’t, we will either provide constructive feedback or decline to feature it.

Display Advertising

We use third-party advertising companies, such as Google AdSense, Mediavine, or AdThrive, to serve advertisements when you visit the website. These companies may use cookies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. This is a common practice that helps us generate revenue to support the site.

Health & Nutritional Information

Any nutritional information provided on this website is an estimate calculated using third-party software and is for informational purposes only. It should not be considered a substitute for professional medical or nutritional advice.

Factors such as ingredient brands, measurements, and cooking methods can change the nutritional values in any given recipe. For accuracy, we recommend calculating the nutritional information independently with your preferred calculator, using the specific ingredients you use. We are not responsible for any adverse reactions or health issues that may result from following the recipes or advice on this site. Please consult a qualified healthcare professional for any health concerns or before making any major dietary changes.

Our Commitment

Our goal is to be a resource you can trust. Integrity is the foundation of Pure Cooking Joy, and we will always prioritize our readers’ best interests. We are committed to being transparent and upfront about all aspects of our business.

If you have any questions about this policy or anything else on the site, please do not hesitate to reach out.
