Advertising Disclosure

Last updated: December 6, 2025

Our Commitment to Transparency

At Doi Mae Salong Mist, we believe in complete transparency about our advertising relationships and how we may earn revenue from recommendations, partnerships, or content on our website. This disclosure explains our advertising practices, affiliate relationships, and sponsored content policies in accordance with applicable regulations and ethical business practices.

We are committed to maintaining your trust by clearly identifying any financial relationships that may influence the content we publish or the recommendations we make. This disclosure helps you make informed decisions about the information and services you encounter on our website.

Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships

1. Affiliate Program Participation

We may participate in affiliate programs with various tea-related suppliers, equipment manufacturers, and service providers. When you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase or engage services, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. These affiliate relationships include:

  • Tea equipment and brewing tool suppliers
  • Logistics and shipping service providers
  • Tea education and certification programs
  • Industry publications and information resources
  • Business tools and software relevant to tea trade

2. Commission-Based Recommendations

Some recommendations on our website may result in compensation to us through affiliate commissions. We only recommend products, services, or suppliers that we believe offer genuine value to our audience. Our earning potential through affiliate relationships does not influence our commitment to providing honest, unbiased information. We clearly disclose affiliate links where applicable.

3. Financial Relationship Transparency

When we have a financial relationship with a company or individual we mention, recommend, or link to, we disclose this relationship. This includes situations where we receive commissions, referral fees, or other compensation. We believe transparency about these relationships is essential for maintaining your trust and helping you evaluate the information we provide.

4. Product Recommendation Policies

Our product and service recommendations are based on our genuine assessment of quality, relevance to tea professionals, and value for our audience. We do not allow affiliate relationships to compromise the integrity of our recommendations. We evaluate products and services independently and only promote those that meet our standards, regardless of commission rates or affiliate terms.

Sponsored Content and Paid Promotions

1. Identification of Paid Content

Any content on our website that has been paid for by third parties will be clearly identified as "Sponsored," "Paid Promotion," "Advertisement," or similar clear labeling. We maintain a clear distinction between editorial content and sponsored material to ensure you can easily identify which content is influenced by commercial relationships.

2. Sponsored Post Policies

When we publish sponsored content, we adhere to the following policies:

  • All sponsored posts are clearly labeled at the beginning of the content
  • We maintain editorial control over the presentation and context
  • Sponsored content must be relevant and valuable to our audience
  • We disclose the sponsoring party unless anonymity is legally required
  • Sponsored content meets the same quality standards as our editorial content
  • We do not allow sponsors to misrepresent information or make false claims

3. Brand Partnership Disclosures

We may enter into partnerships with tea brands, equipment manufacturers, tourism operators, or other businesses relevant to our audience. These partnerships may involve compensation in the form of payment, free products or services, discounts, or other benefits. We disclose these relationships when they may influence content or recommendations.

4. Content Authenticity Guarantees

Regardless of sponsorship or affiliate relationships, we guarantee that all content on our website reflects our genuine knowledge, experience, and opinions. We do not publish misleading information, false claims, or deceptive content, even when compensated. Our reputation and your trust are more valuable than any advertising revenue.

Third-Party Advertising Networks

1. Display Advertising Networks

We may work with third-party advertising networks that display advertisements on our website. These networks may use cookies and similar technologies to deliver targeted advertisements based on your browsing behavior across multiple websites. We do not control these third-party technologies or the advertisements they display.

2. Behavioral Targeting Disclosure

Third-party advertising networks may use information about your visits to our website and other websites to provide advertisements about goods and services that may interest you. This practice is known as behavioral targeting or interest-based advertising. We disclose this practice to ensure you understand how advertisements are selected and delivered to you.

3. Cookie Usage for Advertising

Advertising networks may place cookies on your device to track your browsing activity and deliver targeted advertisements. These cookies help advertisers understand which advertisements are most effective and which content interests you. You can manage advertising cookies through your browser settings or our cookie management interface. See our Cookie Policy for more details.

4. Ad Personalization Practices

When you visit our website, advertising networks may personalize the advertisements you see based on factors such as your location, browsing history, demographic information, and inferred interests. This personalization aims to show you advertisements more relevant to your interests. You have the right to opt out of personalized advertising through browser settings or industry opt-out tools.

Your Rights and Controls Regarding Advertisements

1. Ad Preference Management

You have several options to control your advertising experience:

  • Adjust cookie settings through our cookie management tool
  • Use browser settings to block third-party cookies
  • Install browser extensions that block advertising trackers
  • Opt out of personalized advertising through industry tools
  • Use your device's "Limit Ad Tracking" or similar features

2. Opt-Out Procedures

To opt out of behavioral advertising from participating ad networks, you can visit industry opt-out pages such as the Digital Advertising Alliance or Network Advertising Initiative. Please note that opting out does not eliminate all advertisements—you will still see ads, but they will not be personalized based on your browsing behavior.

3. Data Collection for Advertising Purposes

Advertising networks may collect information about your device, browser, IP address, and browsing behavior for advertising purposes. This data collection is subject to the privacy policies of the respective advertising networks. We encourage you to review these policies to understand how your data is used for advertising. We do not sell your personal information to advertisers.

4. Rights Under Privacy Regulations

Depending on your location, you may have specific rights regarding advertising data collection under privacy regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, or similar laws. These rights may include the right to access data collected about you, the right to delete such data, the right to opt out of data sales, and the right to non-discrimination for exercising your privacy rights.

Compliance with Advertising Regulations

We comply with applicable advertising regulations, including the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines in the United States and similar regulations in other jurisdictions. Our disclosure practices are designed to ensure that material connections between our content and commercial interests are clearly and conspicuously disclosed to our audience.

We continuously review our advertising practices to ensure compliance with evolving regulations and industry best practices. When regulations change or new guidance is issued, we update our practices and disclosures accordingly.

If you have concerns about any advertising content on our website or believe a disclosure is unclear or missing, please contact us immediately so we can address the issue.

Editorial Independence and Integrity

Our editorial content and business recommendations are based on our professional experience, knowledge of the tea industry, and genuine assessment of value to our audience. While we may earn commissions or receive compensation from some recommendations, this does not influence our editorial judgment or compromise our commitment to providing accurate, helpful information.

We maintain clear separation between advertising and editorial content. Our team has the independence to recommend or not recommend products and services based solely on their merits, regardless of commercial arrangements. We do not allow advertisers or sponsors to dictate or unduly influence our editorial content.
