This Advertising Policy explains how advertising, sponsored content, affiliate partnerships, and promotional placements are managed on The Crypto Guardian (“we”, “our”, “the Website”).

We are committed to upholding transparency, editorial integrity, and user trust in all advertising practices.

By using this Website, you agree to this policy.


1. Purpose of Advertising on The Crypto Guardian

Advertising allows us to fund our operations, maintain high-quality journalism, and deliver free crypto-related news, analysis, and educational content.

However, the presence of advertising does not influence our editorial independence.


2. Types of Advertising and Commercial Content

We may display or publish the following types of promotional content:

2.1. Display Ads

Standard banner ads, on-page advertisements, and sponsored widgets provided by ad networks (e.g., Google Ads, programmatic networks).

2.2. Sponsored Articles / Sponsored Posts

Content paid for by an advertiser or project, clearly labeled as:

  • Sponsored

  • Paid Article

  • Promotional Content

Sponsored posts will never be disguised as editorial journalism.

2.3. Press Releases

Press releases submitted by crypto companies or PR agencies may appear on the Website.
These are clearly labeled as Press Release and are not editorial articles.

2.4. Affiliate Links

We may include affiliate links to products, services, or platforms we choose to feature.
If users make a purchase using these links, we may earn a commission at no additional cost.

Affiliate links will be disclosed where applicable.


3. Editorial Independence

We maintain a strict separation between editorial content and advertising.

Advertisers:

  • Have no influence over our news coverage

  • Cannot demand positive content

  • Cannot alter or edit editorial articles

  • Cannot influence rankings, analysis, or reporting

Editorial decisions are made exclusively by our editorial team.


4. Disclosure and Transparency

To ensure full transparency:

  • Sponsored content will be clearly marked at the top of the article.

  • Press releases will be labeled Press Release.

  • Affiliate links will be accompanied by disclosure notices.

  • Paid placements will never be hidden or masked.

We believe readers deserve to know when content has been paid for or influenced commercially.


5. Advertising Guidelines & Restrictions

We may reject advertisements that:

  • Promote scams, fraudulent crypto projects, or unverified claims

  • Promise unrealistic financial returns

  • Are misleading, deceptive, or violate regulations

  • Infringe intellectual property rights

We reserve the right to refuse or remove any advertisement at our discretion.


6. Relationship with Crypto Projects and Advertisers

All advertisers must agree to:

  • Provide accurate and verifiable information

  • Avoid misleading claims

  • Comply with relevant financial and advertising regulations

  • Ensure that promotional material is factually correct

The Crypto Guardian is not responsible for the accuracy of claims made by advertisers.


7. No Endorsement

Advertising or sponsored content does not imply endorsement of the product, company, token, or service.

Users should conduct independent research before making financial decisions.
