Affiliate & Sponsorship Disclosure
In compliance with the FTC 16 CFR 255 guidelines, BackyardCoops discloses all material connections with third parties.
Affiliate Programs
BackyardCoops is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. Our Amazon tag is gpat886569-20. Links marked as affiliate links (or via our /api/aff/redirect endpoint) may earn us a commission at no extra cost to you.
We also use Gumroad to sell digital products. The Gumroad base URL is https://gpat886569.gumroad.com.
Sponsored Content
Any sponsored article, directory listing, or advertisement is labeled "Sponsored" or "Advertisement" in the content. Sponsored content does not influence our editorial coverage of the same or competing products.
Expert Services
The coop audit service is an editorial opinion only — not a professional appraisal, not legal advice, and not veterinary advice. We do not authenticate heritage breed documentation and do not guarantee any audit opinion will satisfy local ordinance requirements.
Editorial Independence
Affiliate relationships do not influence which products, breeds, or services we recommend. We recommend what works based on first-hand experience and verifiable data, regardless of whether an affiliate program exists for that product.
