Purpose of This Disclosure
This Advertising Disclosure is designed to inform you about the advertising and affiliate relationships that may exist on the SinoPath Academy website. We are committed to maintaining your trust by clearly identifying when content may be influenced by commercial relationships.
In accordance with guidelines from regulatory bodies and best practices in digital advertising, we provide this disclosure to ensure you understand how advertising and affiliate relationships may impact the content you see on our website.
Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships
What Are Affiliate Programs
Affiliate programs allow businesses to earn commissions by promoting products or services from other companies. When you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase or take a specific action, we may receive a commission from the company providing that product or service.
Our Affiliate Partnerships
SinoPath Academy may participate in affiliate programs with:
- • Educational resource providers and learning material publishers
- • Language learning tool and software developers
- • Cultural experience providers and travel services
- • Professional development and certification organizations
How Affiliate Commissions Work
When we recommend products or services through affiliate links:
No Extra Cost to You
Affiliate commissions come from the company providing the product or service, not from you. Your purchase price remains the same whether you use our affiliate link or not.
Genuine Recommendations
We only recommend products and services that we believe provide value to our students and align with our educational philosophy.
Our Recommendation Policy
Our affiliate relationships do not compromise the integrity of our educational guidance. We maintain editorial independence and base our recommendations on factors including educational value, quality, relevance to Mandarin language learning, and student feedback. Financial compensation is just one consideration among many when we evaluate resources to recommend.
Sponsored Content and Paid Promotions

When we feature content related to these partnerships, we disclose the relationship to maintain transparency.
