Advertising Disclosure
At ZenPath Institute, we believe in complete transparency with our community. This disclosure explains our advertising relationships and how we may be compensated when you engage with certain content or services on our website.
Last updated: November 16, 2025
Our Commitment to Transparency
We are committed to maintaining the trust and confidence of our visitors and students. In accordance with guidelines from regulatory bodies and our own ethical standards, we want to be completely transparent about any financial relationships that may influence the content on our website.
Key Principles
- • We only recommend products and services we genuinely believe benefit our community
- • All sponsored content and affiliate relationships are clearly disclosed
- • Our editorial content remains independent and honest
- • We prioritize your best interests above potential compensation
Affiliate Relationships
What Are Affiliate Relationships?
Affiliate programs allow us to earn a commission when you purchase products or services through certain links on our website. This comes at no additional cost to you and helps support our ability to provide free educational content and resources.
When we include an affiliate link, we will clearly indicate this relationship. These links are typically found in:
- • Product recommendations for meditation supplies and wellness tools
- • Book recommendations related to mindfulness and personal development
- • References to complementary wellness services
Our Selection Process
We carefully evaluate all affiliate partnerships based on quality, relevance to our community, and alignment with our values. We only recommend products or services that we have personally evaluated or that we believe offer genuine value to our students and visitors. Our recommendations are based on merit, not commission rates.
Financial Transparency
Commission rates vary depending on the affiliate program and product category. These commissions help support the ongoing operation of our website and the development of free educational resources. Your purchase price remains the same whether you use our affiliate link or purchase directly.
Sponsored Content
Identification of Sponsored Content
From time to time, we may publish content that has been sponsored by or created in partnership with third parties. All sponsored content is clearly labeled with one or more of the following disclosures:
- • "Sponsored Post" or "Sponsored Content"
- • "In Partnership With [Partner Name]"
- • "Paid Promotion"
- • "Advertisement" or "Ad"
Editorial Independence
Even when content is sponsored, we maintain complete editorial control over what we publish. We will never compromise our values or mislead our community for financial gain. Sponsored content must align with our mission and provide genuine value to our audience.
Brand Partnerships
We occasionally partner with brands and organizations that share our commitment to mindfulness, wellness, and personal growth. These partnerships may involve monetary compensation or product exchanges. All such relationships are disclosed when relevant to the content being presented.
