Affiliate Disclosure

Last Updated: January 11, 2026

Amazon Associates Program

HanbangType.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated Amazon sites including:

• Amazon.com
• Amazon.ca (Canada)
• Amazon.co.uk (United Kingdom)
• Amazon.de (Germany)
• Other Amazon international sites

How Affiliate Links Work

When you click on a product link on our website and make a purchase on Amazon (or other partner sites), we may receive a small commission from that sale. This commission comes at no additional cost to you – you pay the same price whether you use our link or go directly to the retailer.

For example:

• Product costs $20 on Amazon
• You click our affiliate link
• You still pay $20
• Amazon pays us a small commission (typically 3-5%)

Our Commitment to You

We want to be completely transparent about how we earn revenue and how this affects our product recommendations:

Product Selection

• Constitutional Matching First: We select products based on their alignment with Sasang constitutional medicine principles, not commission rates
• Quality Over Earnings: We only recommend products we believe are beneficial for specific constitutional types
• Real Research: Our product recommendations are based on traditional Korean medicine (Hanbang) principles and ingredient analysis
• Honest Reviews: Our explanations of why products match certain constitutions are based on authentic constitutional theory, not marketing claims

Editorial Independence

While we earn commissions from affiliate links, this does not influence:

• Which products we recommend for each constitutional type
• Our educational content about Sasang medicine
• Our constitutional assessment quiz results
• The integrity of our ingredient matching system

We prioritize constitutional accuracy over affiliate earnings. If a product doesn't match your constitutional needs, we won't recommend it regardless of commission potential.

Other Affiliate Programs

In addition to Amazon Associates, we may participate in other affiliate marketing programs including:

• K-beauty retailers and marketplaces
• Health and wellness product companies
• Traditional medicine suppliers
• Other relevant product and service providers

We will always disclose these relationships when they apply.

Pricing and Availability

Important Note: Prices and availability of products on Amazon and other retailers change frequently. The ratings, prices, and product availability displayed on our site are provided for reference only and may not reflect current information on the retailer's website. We make every effort to keep information current, but cannot guarantee real-time accuracy.

Always check the retailer's website for the most up-to-date pricing, availability, and product details before making a purchase.

No Medical Advice

The information on HanbangType.com, including product recommendations, is for educational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice. Our constitutional assessments are based on traditional Korean medicine (Sasang medicine) and are not a substitute for professional medical diagnosis or treatment.

Always consult with a qualified healthcare provider before:

• Starting any new skincare regimen
• Taking herbal supplements
• Making significant dietary changes
• Treating any health condition

• Transparency: We clearly mark affiliate links and disclose partnerships
• Honesty: We provide genuine constitutional matching, not just sales pitches
• Education: We prioritize teaching you about Sasang medicine over making sales
• Quality: We only recommend products we believe align with constitutional principles
• Independence: Our editorial content remains free from advertiser influence
