Affiliate Disclosure

Version 1.0.0-draft · Last updated 2026-08-09

This page explains how Bookends may earn money from links to partner retailers, so you know what to expect before you click through to buy a book.

1. What this disclosure means

Some links on Bookends that lead to partner retailers may be affiliate links. If you buy through one of those links, Bookends may earn a commission from the retailer.

This applies only to outbound links to partner retailers — it does not apply to browsing, reviewing, cataloguing, or any other use of Bookends.

2. The price you pay

Using an affiliate link does not change the price you pay. The price is typically the same as if you had gone to the retailer directly, since any commission is paid by the retailer, not added to your purchase.

3. Bookends is not the retailer

Bookends does not sell books or process payments. When you follow a partner link, the purchase happens entirely on the retailer’s own site, under the retailer’s own terms, pricing, and returns policy.

4. Tracking and your privacy

Following a partner link may involve tracking technology used to attribute the purchase to Bookends. For details on how we handle personal data and cookies, see our Privacy Policy (/privacy) and Cookie Policy (/cookies).

5. Current status

No monetized partner Buy action is live on Bookends yet. This page is published in advance so the disclosure is in place before any such feature is introduced.
