Opinions and Reliability
All opinions shared on STRUCKBLOG.com are my own (Anna Ruck). In sharing my opinions, it is not my intention to offend or insult anyone. I am sharing my thoughts for the purpose of providing information, reviews, or just for the knowledge and entertainment of my readers. I am open and honest with my opinions and will never be compensated or incentivized to speak positively about any product or experience if I do not honestly agree. I also read blogs and seek reviews about products I am not familiar with, and I would hate to be misled by a trusted source. If I do not like how a particular product has worked for me, I’ll let you know. In addition, if I am sent something for review that I dislike or do not find use for, you will not find it here at all.
Affiliates and Sponsorships
If I am sharing a discount code that is exclusive to STRUCKBLOG and its readers, I may be making a very small commission on the sale. Sometimes this is not the case, and I am simply providing a discount code that was offered to me to pass along to you. This is always disclosed, either way.
I utilize affiliate links to allow for quick and easy ways to shop. These shopping links use cookies, and therefore they appear on STRUCKBLOG. You will find these links in blog posts, in the STRUCKBLOG Shop and I also often provide them via Instagram Stories and Facebook posts. When you shop via these links I receive a small amount of commission, as something of a thank you for introducing you to the product. This commission is collected at no additional expense to you as it is provided by the retailer. This is alike the majority of bloggers who are compensated for their efforts via affiliate marketing.
I do not participate in brand ambassador programs that require commission sales. Please do not inquire about my interest in joining your program. I do not entertain the idea of engaging in this type or promotion as it is to the determent of the trust and relationship I have developed over many years with my readers and followers.
If a post is sponsored by a brand or company, meaning I have either been compensated monetarily or with the product, I will always disclose this to my readers directly in the post and/or in the caption on social media.

I include the highest quality imagery I can on my blog and social media for the enjoyment of my readers.

I make sure to always credit photographers directly in the blog post, on social media, or wherever and whenever their work appears.
