FTC Disclosure and Ethics Statement
The Federal Trade Commission requires that I disclose any relationship I have between a product manufacturer or service provider when I write about a product or service.
YourMortgageEngineer.com is owned by me, Tammi Robson, and operated under my mortgage brokerage, Metro Lenders, Inc.
Here are the guidelines under which I operate my website:
- If I have a vested interest in the subject of a topic (e.g. I own stock in the company I’m writing about), I’ll disclose that to you in the article.
- I never accept money to review a product or service. I invest my own time to review products, books, websites, etc.
- If I create a link to a product or service in a review, sometimes I may get paid a commission if you purchase the product or service. These links are included after posts are written, and posts are never composed for the purpose of including advertising.
- No advertiser will ever influence the content, topics or posts made on this website.
These are good rules and practices in today’s digital world. It’s important for you to understand the relationship between a person reviewing the product and the manufacturer or service provider.
If you don’t see a disclosure policy on a blog, that reviewer may be violating the law or at the very least, the Code of Ethics.
