Everything published on this site is original content and is purely the opinion of the author. Efforts are made to provide factual information to help readers, but no information is guaranteed. I might not remember or understand all of the details important to you, or products or services may have changed.
Before using the information about other services, hotels, etc, you are advised to thoroughly investigate the business for yourself rather than relying on the recommendations found on Future Expat.
We encourage you to use the information in this site as a starting point but check out everything for yourself so you don’t have any surprises.
Advertising:
This website contains paid advertising through affiliate links, sponsorships and advertisements. All articles or content pages with affiliate links or sponsorships will have disclosures that link to this advertising policy.
Affiliate links with be identified in rollover text. If you hover over the link, you’ll see it is an affiliate link.
Sponsored articles may be compensated through payment, product or both. All sponsored articles will be identified at the end of the post with a link to this page.
Ads may be placed in the body of content articles and pages without specific labels that they are paid advertising. Payment for the ads may be either prepaid direct ads, or payment may result by clicking on the ads or purchasing products on the advertiser sites.
Ads will also be placed throughout the website in the header, footer and sidebar. These ads may or may not be identified as ads but will direct users to other websites. You can assume that any image that is not in the content area of articles or informational pages and links to an outside website is paid advertising.
While I don’t guarantee that I use all of the products being promoted via sponsored posts, affiliate links or prepaid advertisements, nothing will be advertised that does not appear to be a quality product or service which will benefit readers. The expressed opinions of complimentary products or sponsored posts are the true opinions of the author.
I won’t be giving out good reviews simply because someone gave me something for free or paid me. Of course, it will be clearly identified if a reviewed product was given to me at no or reduced cost.
This site does display ads through the use of ad networks such as Google Adsense. I have no control over the ads you will see that are presented by these networks. Normally, they will be related to your browsing history rather than the content of this site.
