Commercial transparency

Affiliate and Deal Disclosure

Last updated: August 31, 2026

TechPulse is independently operated. Some future pages may include links to retailers, tools, or services that pay TechPulse a commission if a reader makes a qualifying purchase. That can help support the site at no extra cost to the reader.

How affiliate links are labeled

When an affiliate link appears, the page will use a clear disclosure close to the recommendation or link. The link itself will be marked for search engines as sponsored. We will not hide a commercial relationship behind a generic button, a misleading price claim, or an alert that looks like a purchase guarantee.

What this does not change

A commission does not buy a favorable editorial conclusion. TechPulse may cover, compare, criticize, or choose not to link to a product regardless of any commercial relationship. Gaming price alerts remain independent observations of the selected Steam product and region; they do not reserve a price, select a seller, or make a purchase for a visitor.

Deals and price information

Prices, availability, edition contents, currency, and checkout terms can change. Before buying from any retailer or platform, confirm the final product and price on that seller's official page. TechPulse will not describe a deal as the best price or an all-time low without enough reliable first-party evidence to support that statement.

Sponsored material and ads

Sponsored material and advertising will be clearly identified. Sponsored placement does not become editorial reporting, and editorial reporting does not become sponsored simply because an advertiser appears elsewhere on the site.

Questions or corrections

If a disclosure, price reference, or commercial label appears unclear, contact TechPulse. You can also read our Editorial Policy, Privacy Policy, and Corrections Policy.
