What is an Advertiser?
In the context of our website, an advertiser is an individual or company that pays to promote products, services, or messages on our platform. We form relationships with these advertisers with the intent to present opportunities or solutions that resonate with the goals of our community.
However, it’s crucial to note that having a financial relationship with advertisers does not mean we compromise on the quality or integrity of our content. Our audience’s trust is paramount, and we selectively choose who we partner with to maintain that trust.
Types of Advertising on the Website
Our website offers various kinds of advertising opportunities to fit the unique needs of our advertisers while also considering what is most beneficial and relevant to our audience. Here are some of the types of advertising you may encounter:
- Sponsored Content: Articles or blog posts that are funded by an advertiser, usually to discuss a product or service. While these are paid for, they are created by our editorial team and go through the same rigorous quality check as all other content on the site.
- Affiliate Links: Some articles may contain links to products or services. When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, we earn a commission at no extra cost to you.
- Banner Ads: These visual advertisements appear in various parts of our website. They could promote a product, service, or message that aligns with our website’s ethos.
- Product Recommendations: Occasionally, we may suggest products that we believe would benefit our audience. These recommendations could be a part of a paid partnership or purely editorial.
By being transparent about the types of advertising on our site, we hope to create an environment where our audience can make informed decisions while navigating through our content.
How Does Advertising Affect Content?
We recognize the importance of discussing the relationship between advertising and our editorial content. While advertising does help sustain our website financially, it does not impact the objectivity or reliability of our content.
Our editorial team works independently of our advertising team to produce authentic, unbiased material. To ensure the integrity of our content, we have strict guidelines in place that prohibit the editorial team from being influenced by advertisers. Therefore, you can trust that our articles, stories, and resources are created with our audience’s best interests in mind.
Editorial Integrity
Our Commitment to Genuine Opinions and Reviews
Our dedication to delivering accurate and unbiased content extends to every product recommendation we make. Rest assured, our partners have no influence over our editorial decisions, nor do they review, approve, or endorse the content we produce.
The views expressed in our reviews are solely ours, stemming from rigorous evaluation and analysis. Importantly, we maintain a firm policy of not accepting financial incentives in exchange for favorable reviews, ensuring that our opinions remain impartial and serve the best interests of our community.
How We Make Money
Operating an online platform comes with inevitable costs, from maintaining high-quality content to offering valuable resources. To cover these expenses, we rely on diverse revenue streams. Among these are advertising partnerships that allow us to earn commissions from affiliate links, fees from specially curated sponsored content, and revenue generated through display ads.
Importantly, the revenue we generate isn’t just about sustaining the website—it’s about enabling us to provide you with free, invaluable resources and to further our mission of empowering women. Every dollar earned is reinvested into the community through enriching content and services, ensuring that our financial model aligns with our ethical commitment to serve you responsibly.
The Philosophy Behind Our No-Cost Platform
Women’s Outfront was founded on a singular vision: to develop accessible, user-friendly tools that enhance your shopping experience, all while remaining entirely free of charge. Our commitment to offering complimentary resources underscores our dedication to empowering you without adding financial strain. We believe that quality should be accessible, so we’re steadfast in our mission to provide exceptional tools that add value to your life at zero cost to you.
Our Editorial Independence
We take pride in our editorial independence. The editorial team operates autonomously, ensuring that our content remains impartial and free from advertiser influence. This separation lets us focus on our primary objective—empowering our audience through reliable and impactful information.
Advertisers have no say in our editorial decisions, and our guidelines explicitly prevent any form of interference in our editorial process. In doing so, we uphold the trust and respect we’ve built with our community over the years.
User Responsibility
While we strive to provide accurate and trustworthy information, our readers must understand that the final responsibility for any decisions rests with them. Our content aims to inform and inspire but is not a substitute for professional financial, legal, or medical advice. We encourage all users to conduct their research and consult with professionals before making significant decisions based on the information or advertisements found on our website.
Advertiser Responsibility
We hold our advertisers to high standards to ensure that the products and services promoted on our platform are aligned with our mission and values. All advertisers must meet specific criteria, including but not limited to ethical business practices, transparent customer relations, and social responsibility.
Additionally, we reserve the right to review and potentially remove any misleading, false ads that do not meet our guidelines. This rigorous selection process protects our community’s interests and maintains our platform’s integrity.
Transparency and Updates
We are committed to keeping this Advertiser Disclosure page up-to-date to reflect any changes in our advertising practices or policies. We aim to be as transparent as possible with our audience, and as such, we adhere to industry best practices and regulations regarding advertising disclosure. Please check back regularly for updates to ensure you are aware of any changes.
Our Relationship with Amazon
When browsing our product recommendations, you may find links directing you to Amazon. These are affiliate links, meaning we earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase at no additional cost to you.
We aim to offer you valuable and unbiased recommendations, and your trust is crucial to us. As our Operating Agreement requires, you need to know: “As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.”
Contact Information
We encourage you to contact us with any questions or concerns about our advertising practices or policies. You can contact our advertising team at hello@womensoutfront.com or use the Contact Us form on our website for a more direct route. Your feedback is invaluable, and we are committed to addressing your queries as promptly and transparently as possible.

Your Privacy Matters
What We Know and Don’t Know About You
When you make a purchase directly from our store, we only have access to your personal details. Conversely, if you choose to buy a product from one of our vendors, rest assured that we do not gain visibility into your personal information—your name, email address, physical address, or credit card details. We receive anonymous data indicating a purchase, along with the date, time, and specific product purchased.
We invite you to consult our Privacy Policy page for a comprehensive understanding of how we handle your information.
