Welcome to the ycgts.shop affiliate disclosure and privacy policy. Please read this page in full for important information regarding our financial relationships with advertisers and our privacy policy.
Affiliate Disclosure
Some pages at ycgts.shop include affiliate links to licensed, legal gaming sites. If you click on those links and play online, we may receive a commission for our recommendations.
However, we maintain a reader-first policy at all times despite any such relationships. This means we place the well-being of our readers above all else. Any reviews or recommendations you see at ycgts.shop are formed by our own opinions and are not impacted by any relationship with any licensed gaming site.
Our overarching approach with ycgts.shop is to create content first, and then add affiliate links where possible. In taking this approach, we first discuss the legal situation in every state, provide the facts, write reviews and make recommendations. Only after we have provided our actual opinions and recommendations do we add affiliate links where possible.
In taking this content-first-affiliate-links-second approach, we ensure our opinions and recommendations are not influenced by any potential financial considerations. This is why you will often find us quite critical of some gaming sites despite including affiliate links or why we do at times recommend licensed gaming sites that do not even have affiliate programs.
Our first goal is and always will be to serve our readers. We believe this is not only critical for ethical reasons, but also that it is a smart business decision to establish ycgts.shop as the best website on the internet for truly useful information and unbiased recommendations.
