Affiliate disclosure

This page is the advertising and affiliate disclosure for Family Freeze Guide, published at familyfreezeguide.com.

How we mark paid links

Affiliate or sponsored links are marked #ad next to the link and use a placeholder or tracking address such as AFFILIATE_LINK_AURA until a live affiliate URL is added. Those links also include rel="sponsored nofollow". If a short video or social post points you to a link in the bio or the About section of this site, and that destination includes an affiliate link, the post should also include #ad.

FTC-style disclosure

The Federal Trade Commission requires advertising to be honest and disclosures to be clear and hard to miss. In plain language:

• If you follow a link marked #ad and later buy or enroll, we may get paid by that company.
• That payment is a reason we mention the product. It is not proof that the product is right for you.
• We do not claim that a paid plan, or a freeze, will stop every scam or every kind of identity theft.
• Prices and plan terms change. Dated price tables on this site tell you when we checked the company’s official page. Check the official page before you pay.
• We do not invent official commission rates. If we cannot find a rate on the company’s own public affiliate page, we say so.

Amazon Associates

This site does not currently contain Amazon Associates links. If that changes, we will add the required language: “As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases,” and we will keep disclosures in the same medium as the recommendation.

Free steps come first

You can freeze your credit at each of the three nationwide bureaus at no charge, and you can report fraud to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov at no charge. Those tools do not require a paid membership.
