Advertising and Affiliate Disclosure

How the Academy may earn revenue

Skunkworks Academy may earn revenue from paid training, laboratories, consulting, certification-related services, advertising and affiliate relationships. This revenue helps fund content production, review, hosting and learner support.

Editorial independence

Payment, advertising availability, partner status or affiliate commission does not determine technical conclusions. Editorial pages are selected and reviewed for usefulness to the intended audience. Sponsored content, when used, is labelled so that readers can distinguish it from independent editorial material.

Affiliate links

Some links may generate a commission if a reader completes a qualifying purchase. Affiliate links are marked with appropriate disclosure and link attributes. A commission does not increase the price unless the external provider expressly states otherwise.

Google advertising

Eligible publisher-content pages may load Google advertising after the relevant consent choice. Ads are not intentionally placed on pages without substantive content, on login or registration pages, in checkout and payment flows, on form-only or confirmation screens, in administrative interfaces, or inside laboratory consoles.

Placement standards

Advertisements must be visually distinguishable from Academy content and must not overlay content, obscure navigation, imitate buttons, sit so close to interactive controls that accidental clicks are likely, or outnumber the publisher content on a page.
