Affiliate Disclosure

How we make money, and what that does and doesn't change about what you read here.

Last updated
The short version. Some outbound links may earn us a commission at no extra cost to you. Commission never determines an evidence rating, a dose figure, or what the Guru tells you. Anything that pays us is labelled where you see it, not just here.

How DoseIQ makes money

  • Pro subscriptions. $9 a month. This is the main way, and we want it to stay that way — a product paid for by its users answers to its users.
  • Affiliate links. If we link to a supplier, testing service or product and you buy through it, we may receive a commission. The price you pay is identical either way.

We do not sell advertising, we do not take payment for placement in the compound library, and we do not sell your data. Ever, and not as a matter of current policy but as a matter of what the business is.

The rules we hold ourselves to

Affiliate income and honest information can coexist, but only with firm lines. Ours:

  • Commission never influences an evidence rating. Our two-axis grading is set from published research and community practice. No commercial relationship has ever moved one and none will.
  • Commission never influences a dose. Doses come from the literature and from what people actually run. Nobody pays to have a number raised.
  • The Guru is never sponsored. It answers from our compound library. There is no paid placement in it and no mechanism for one.
  • Negative coverage stays negative. AOD-9604's pivotal trial failed and our page says so plainly. If we ever earn commission on AOD-9604, that page still says so.
  • Labelled at the point of the link. Disclosure belongs where you're deciding, not buried in a footer you'll never open.

About supplier links

We may publish a list of suppliers people have had good experiences with. If we do, some of those links may be affiliate links and will be marked.

A link is not a safety guarantee. We do not manufacture, test, inspect or verify any product. We cannot confirm that a vial contains what its label claims, at the purity claimed, or at the quantity claimed. Mislabelled and underfilled peptide vials are common throughout this market, and no recommendation from us changes that. Third-party testing is worth its cost.

We also do not sell, supply or ship any compound. A link takes you to a separate business with its own terms, its own privacy practices and its own responsibility for what it sells.

How links are labelled

Anywhere a link may earn us commission you'll see a clear marker next to it — not at the bottom of the page, and not in small grey text after the button. If you ever find one that isn't labelled, that's a mistake rather than a policy. Tell us and we'll fix it.

Why this page exists

US Federal Trade Commission guidance requires clear and conspicuous disclosure of material connections between a publisher and the products it recommends. Similar rules apply under Canada's Competition Act.

We'd publish this anyway. If you can't tell whether a recommendation is genuine, the recommendation is worthless — and so, eventually, is the site making it.
