Advertising Disclosure
Last updated: November 1, 2025
Our Commitment to Transparency
At PixelCraft, we believe in complete transparency regarding our advertising relationships and business practices. This disclosure statement explains how we may earn revenue through various advertising and affiliate programs, and how these relationships may influence the content and recommendations on our website.
We are committed to maintaining the trust of our visitors and students. When we participate in affiliate programs or accept advertising, we always prioritize providing honest, valuable information while clearly disclosing any financial relationships that may exist.
This page is intended to comply with applicable advertising regulations and guidelines, including those established by relevant consumer protection authorities.
Affiliate Relationships and Commissions
What Are Affiliate Programs?
Affiliate programs are marketing arrangements where we may earn a commission when visitors click on certain links on our website and make purchases or sign up for services from third-party providers. These programs help support our operations and allow us to continue providing educational content and services.
Software and Tools
We may participate in affiliate programs for game development software, tools, and platforms that we discuss or recommend in our courses and content. When you purchase these products through our affiliate links, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.
Examples may include game engines, development tools, hosting services, and educational resources relevant to game development.
Educational Resources
We may earn commissions from affiliate partnerships with educational platforms, online course providers, or learning resource vendors when visitors access these services through links on our website.
These partnerships help us recommend complementary learning resources that may benefit our students.
Gaming Hardware and Equipment
When we mention or recommend gaming hardware, computers, peripherals, or other equipment suitable for game development, we may include affiliate links that generate commissions on qualifying purchases.
Our recommendations are based on relevance to game development education and are not influenced solely by commission rates.
Our Affiliate Commitment
- ▸ We only recommend products and services that we genuinely believe may be valuable to our audience
- ▸ Commission rates do not determine our recommendations or course content
- ▸ We provide honest opinions even when participating in affiliate programs
- ▸ You are never obligated to use affiliate links or make purchases
- ▸ Affiliate commissions do not increase the price you pay for products or services

Brand Partnerships

All brand partnerships will be disclosed appropriately, and we maintain editorial independence in our content creation.
Content Authenticity
Even when content is sponsored, we maintain full editorial control and will only partner with brands whose products or services we believe offer genuine value to our audience. Our opinions and recommendations remain honest and unbiased, regardless of any financial arrangements.
