Simply Home with Sherri Privacy Policy & Disclosure
Who we are
Simply Home with Sherri is a blog written by me. This blog accepts forms of cash advertising, sponsorship, paid insertions, or other forms of compensation.
This blog abides by word-of-mouth marketing standards. We believe in honesty of relationship, opinion, and identity. The compensation received may influence the advertising content, topics, or posts made in this blog. That content, advertising space, or post will be clearly identified as paid or sponsored content.
Sponsored Posts
We are sometimes compensated to provide opinions on products, services, websites, and various other topics. Even though we receive compensation for our posts or advertisements, we always give our honest opinions, findings, beliefs, or experiences on those topics or products. The views and opinions expressed on this blog are 100% our own. Any product claim, statistic, quote, or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer, provider, or party in question.
Affiliate Links
Many of our posts contain affiliate links. I only endorse and promote products I trust and use for myself. If you click on an affiliate link and buy something, we may receive a very small commission. It does NOT result in additional charges to you or cost you anything extra. Mentions of associated products/services/businesses within the content of our blog may or may not be noted as an affiliate in every reference. The affiliate money we earn per month helps pay the fees to keep this site up and running. Thank you for your support.

Amazon.com
