Last updated: December 3, 2025
Our Commitment to Transparency
At Frostholm, we believe in maintaining honest and transparent relationships with our visitors and clients. When we include links, recommendations, or references to products, services, or resources, we want you to understand the nature of any financial relationships that may exist.
This disclosure is provided in compliance with applicable advertising regulations and represents our commitment to ethical business practices. We strive to ensure that any advertising or affiliate relationships do not compromise the quality, integrity, or objectivity of our content and services.
Affiliate Relationships
Affiliate Program Participation
Frostholm may participate in various affiliate marketing programs. This means we may receive compensation when you click on links to external websites or make purchases through those links. These affiliate relationships include:
- Software and development tools relevant to game creation
- Educational resources for game development and mythology research
- Services that support game development projects
- Professional services related to gaming industry operations
Commission-Based Compensation
When you make purchases through our affiliate links, we may receive a commission from the merchant. This commission structure works as follows:
No Additional Cost to You: Affiliate commissions do not increase the price you pay. The merchant pays us a percentage of the sale as compensation for referring customers.
Commission Rates: Commission percentages vary by merchant and product category, typically ranging from 5% to 25% of the purchase price.
Cookie Duration: Most affiliate programs use cookies to track referrals for 30-90 days after you click our link, meaning we may earn a commission if you complete a purchase during that period.
Recommendation Policies
Our recommendations are based on genuine evaluation and experience:
- • We only recommend products, services, and resources we believe offer value to our audience
- • Affiliate relationships do not influence our honest assessment of products or services
- • We disclose affiliate relationships clearly when recommending products
- • Our recommendations reflect our professional judgment, not compensation levels
Financial Relationship Transparency
We maintain clear disclosure of financial relationships. When content includes affiliate links or recommendations that may result in compensation, we will identify these relationships appropriately. This transparency ensures you can make informed decisions about following links or considering recommendations while understanding our potential financial interest.
Sponsored Content
Paid Promotion Identification
Occasionally, we may publish content sponsored by third parties. Sponsored content includes:
- Articles, blog posts, or content created in partnership with brands
- Product reviews or features compensated by manufacturers or service providers
- Educational content supported by industry sponsors
All sponsored content will be clearly labeled as "Sponsored," "Paid Partnership," or similar designation to distinguish it from our regular content.
Sponsored Post Labeling
We maintain strict labeling standards for sponsored content. Any material for which we receive compensation will be clearly identified with appropriate disclosure at the beginning of the content. This disclosure includes information about the sponsoring entity and the nature of our compensation. Our goal is to ensure complete transparency so you can distinguish between independently created content and sponsored material.
Brand Partnership Disclosures
We may enter into partnerships with brands relevant to game development and mythology-based content:
- → Partnerships are disclosed clearly within relevant content
- → We maintain editorial independence even in partnership content
- → Partnership relationships do not compromise honest evaluation
- → Partners do not control our content, opinions, or recommendations
Content Authenticity Guarantee
While we may accept compensation for sponsored content, we maintain complete editorial control and creative independence. Sponsored content represents our genuine perspective and professional judgment. Sponsors may suggest topics or provide products for review, but they do not dictate our conclusions, opinions, or recommendations. Our credibility depends on maintaining authentic, honest content regardless of compensation arrangements.

Ad Preference Management
You can manage your advertising preferences through your browser settings and third-party advertising preference centers. Most advertising networks provide opt-out mechanisms for personalized advertising.
Opt-Out Procedures
To opt out of interest-based advertising, you can use industry opt-out tools, adjust your browser settings, or use browser extensions that block advertising trackers. Note that opting out does not eliminate all advertisements, but makes them less personalized.
Data Collection for Advertising
