Affiliate Disclosure
FIBYC may earn a small commission when you buy a product through one of our links, at no extra cost to you. This page explains exactly how that works and why it doesn't change what we recommend.
The short version
Some of the links in the FIBYC Chrome extension and on this website are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, the retailer pays FIBYC a small commission — usually between 1% and 10% of the sale price — out of their margin. You pay the same price you would have paid anyway. We never up-charge you for going through our link.
Which links earn commission
FIBYC currently earns commission through Amazon Associates and may use additional affiliate channels for non-Amazon retailers when enabled:
-
Amazon Associates. Links to Amazon include our affiliate tag
(
?tag=priscillaavil-20). When you buy anything on Amazon within 24 hours of clicking, FIBYC earns a percentage of the sale. - Skimlinks or similar affiliate networks. If enabled, links to other retailers (Sephora, Ulta, Macy's, Nordstrom, Target, Walmart, and many others) may be routed through an affiliate aggregator that pays FIBYC a share of any commission those retailers offer.
Some links are not affiliate links at all — for example, links to the Chrome Web Store, links to regulatory databases (CosIng, IARC, NTP, ECHA, Prop 65), and links to articles or research. We never earn money from sending you to those.
How affiliate links affect our recommendations
The safety score for each product is calculated from objective ingredient data and is not influenced by what FIBYC earns or could earn from a sale. The list of suggested alternatives is built primarily around safety performance and product fit. Several of the alternatives we surface most often pay modest affiliate commissions — they're there because they score well.
The safety score itself is never altered in exchange for payment. If FIBYC ever runs a sponsored placement — for example, a brand that pays to be featured among the suggested alternatives — it will be clearly labeled "Sponsored" in the extension and disclosed on this page.
Why FIBYC uses affiliate links at all
FIBYC is free for users. The extension takes ongoing work to maintain — new retailers are added, ingredient databases are updated as new research comes out, and the safer-alternative list is curated and rechecked. Affiliate revenue is what lets FIBYC stay free.
Your privacy
Affiliate links use a standard cookie-based attribution system. When you click an affiliate link, the retailer or affiliate network drops a cookie that lets them credit FIBYC if you buy. FIBYC itself does not see what you bought, the price you paid, or any payment information. For the full picture, see our Privacy Policy.
