Advertising Disclosure
At Fiduciary Atlas, we believe in complete transparency regarding our business relationships and advertising practices. This disclosure explains how we may earn revenue through various advertising and affiliate arrangements, and how these relationships might influence the content and recommendations on our website. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of integrity in all our communications.
Last updated: November 3, 2025
Our Commitment to Transparency
We recognize that you place your trust in us when seeking financial guidance, and we take that responsibility seriously. While we may receive compensation through various advertising relationships, our primary commitment is to provide you with honest, accurate, and helpful information that serves your best interests.
This disclosure is provided in compliance with the Federal Trade Commission's requirements regarding endorsements and testimonials, as well as UK advertising standards. We encourage you to read this disclosure carefully to understand how advertising relationships may impact the content you see on our website.
If you have questions about any specific recommendation or partnership, we welcome your inquiries and will provide clear, straightforward answers about our relationships and compensation arrangements.
Affiliate Relationships
Affiliate Program Participation
Fiduciary Atlas participates in select affiliate marketing programs. This means that when you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase or sign up for services, we may receive a commission or referral fee from the company providing that product or service.
These affiliate relationships exist with:
- Financial software and tools that we may recommend for client use
- Educational resources and professional development materials
- Selected financial services providers we believe offer value to our clients
Commission-Based Link Explanations
When you see links on our website to external products or services, some of these may be affiliate links. Here's what that means:
- • No Additional Cost: Using an affiliate link does not increase your cost. The price you pay is the same whether you use our link or go directly to the provider.
- • Commission Structure: We receive a percentage of the sale or a flat fee when you make a purchase through our affiliate link.
- • Tracking: Affiliate links contain tracking codes that allow the provider to identify referrals from our website.
- • Disclosure: Where appropriate, we identify affiliate links with disclaimers near the link or in the surrounding content.
Our affiliate commissions help support the operation of our website and the creation of free educational content, but they never influence our professional advisory recommendations to clients.
Product Recommendation Policies
When we recommend products or services on our website:
- 1. We only recommend products or services we have researched and believe may provide value
- 2. The presence of an affiliate relationship does not guarantee a recommendation
- 3. We may recommend non-affiliate products if they better serve your needs
- 4. Client recommendations are always based on individual circumstances, not affiliate relationships
It's important to understand that general content on our website may be influenced by affiliate relationships, but formal client advisory services are provided independently and objectively, following our fiduciary obligations.
Financial Relationship Transparency
We maintain detailed records of all affiliate relationships and revenue received. While we don't publicly disclose specific commission amounts for commercial sensitivity reasons, we commit to being transparent about which relationships exist when you ask. If you're considering a product or service we've mentioned and want to know whether we have an affiliate relationship with that provider, please feel free to ask us directly.
Sponsored Content
Identification of Paid Content
Occasionally, we may publish sponsored content on our website. This includes articles, posts, or other content that has been paid for by a third party. When we publish sponsored content:
- It will be clearly labeled as "Sponsored," "Paid Partnership," or similar designation
- The sponsoring company will be identified at the beginning of the content
- We maintain editorial control and ensure accuracy of all sponsored content
- Sponsored content must meet our quality standards and provide genuine value to readers
Sponsored Post Labeling Policies
We use clear and conspicuous labeling for all sponsored content. Labels are placed prominently at the beginning of the content, not hidden in fine print or placed only at the end. We believe readers deserve to know immediately when content has been sponsored, allowing them to evaluate the information with appropriate context and skepticism.
Brand Partnership Disclosures
Beyond individual sponsored posts, we may enter into longer-term brand partnerships. These relationships might include:
- → Ongoing content collaborations with financial services providers
- → Educational initiatives sponsored by industry organizations
- → Research projects funded by third parties
- → Event sponsorships or speaking engagements
When such partnerships exist, we disclose them where relevant and maintain our editorial independence. No sponsor dictates our professional opinions or advisory recommendations.
Content Authenticity Guarantees
Even when content is sponsored, we guarantee that all information is accurate, factually correct, and genuinely useful to our audience. We do not publish misleading sponsored content or allow sponsors to make false or exaggerated claims. Our reputation and your trust are more valuable than any single advertising relationship.
Third-Party Advertising
Display Advertising Networks
We may use third-party advertising networks to display advertisements on our website. These networks include:
- • Google AdSense and similar display advertising platforms
- • Contextual advertising services that match ads to content
- • Remarketing platforms that show ads based on previous visits
These advertising networks may use cookies and similar technologies to deliver advertisements that may be relevant to you. For more information about how these technologies work, please see our Cookie Policy.
Behavioral Targeting Disclosure
Some advertising on our website may be targeted based on your browsing behavior across the internet. This is called behavioral advertising or interest-based advertising. These ads are delivered by third-party advertising networks that track your browsing activity across multiple websites to build a profile of your interests. You can opt out of behavioral advertising through your browser settings or by using industry opt-out tools.
Cookie Usage for Advertising
Advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to:
- → Deliver advertisements that may be relevant to your interests
- → Measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns
- → Limit the number of times you see the same advertisement
- → Understand your engagement with advertisements
Ad Personalization Practices
When you visit our website, advertising partners may collect information about your browsing activity to personalize the ads you see. This information may include the pages you visit, your search queries, your location, and other browsing behavior. We do not have direct control over the advertisements displayed by third-party networks, but we do have standards for acceptable advertising and will remove ads that violate our policies.
User Rights and Controls
Ad Preference Management Options
You have several options for managing the advertisements you see:
- Adjust your cookie preferences through our Cookie Policy page
- Use browser settings to block third-party cookies
- Install ad-blocking browser extensions
- Opt out of personalized advertising through industry opt-out tools
Opt-Out Procedures
To opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies, you can visit industry opt-out platforms such as the Digital Advertising Alliance's consumer choice page or the Network Advertising Initiative's opt-out page. Keep in mind that opting out doesn't mean you won't see advertisements—it means the ads you see will be less targeted to your specific interests.
Data Collection for Advertising Purposes
When you interact with advertisements on our website, advertising partners may collect information about your device, browsing behavior, and ad interactions. This data is typically used to measure campaign effectiveness and optimize ad delivery. For detailed information about data collection practices, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

Under UK data protection law, you have rights regarding your personal data used for advertising purposes, including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your data.
