Current status: this site uses the WordPress.com Personal plan. No paid affiliate product links, paid sponsors, third-party display ads, WordAds enrollment, or Being Tea Co products are active. Retailer program and application links are research references, not commission links.
Affiliate links
If affiliate links are activated, Being Tea Co may earn a commission when a reader buys through a qualifying link. The price should not increase because of the commission. The disclosure will appear close enough to the recommendation and link to be seen before a purchase decision—not only in a footer or separate policy.
Paid-link disclosure: Being Tea Co may earn a commission if you buy through links in this section.
Paid links will be marked for search engines as sponsored. Acceptance into a program does not make the retailer a sponsor, and a commission does not determine editorial ranking.
Display advertising
This site currently uses the WordPress.com Personal plan. Being Tea Co does not currently run third-party display advertising and is not enrolled in WordAds. No advertisement is being presented as a Being Tea Co recommendation.
If WordAds or a third-party advertising network is activated later, this page and the Privacy Policy will be updated before ads begin. Applicable privacy controls, consent management, advertiser-category controls, payment details, and program terms will be reviewed at activation. An advertisement appearing through an ad network is not a Being Tea Co endorsement of that advertiser or product.
Purchased and gifted products
A review states whether Being Tea Co purchased the exact item, received it free, received a discount, borrowed it, or used it over a longer period. A free sample is disclosed even when no affiliate link exists. Brands may correct factual product details but may not buy a favorable conclusion.
Paid sponsorships
Sponsored work is labeled “Advertisement” or “Paid sponsorship” before the endorsement. Social and video disclosures appear in the content itself as well as near outbound links.
Being Tea Co merchandise
When an original Being Tea Co design is offered through a hosted fulfillment store, the listing will identify who takes payment, manufactures, ships, handles returns, and provides customer support. Preferred wording is: “Designed by Being Tea Co; sold and fulfilled by [provider]; Being Tea Co receives a royalty or profit share.” A manufacturer or retailer logo will not appear as a partner badge without written permission.
AI-generated editorial imagery
Some editorial images are AI-generated and identified as concept or editorial imagery. They do not document a named garden, maker, historical object, tea lot, monastery, ceremony, wild-plant identification, or product test. Exact product reviews require photographs of the tested item whenever those details matter.
Claims and corrections
Tea is not marketed here as treatment or prevention for disease. Sensory experience is separated from medical or scientific claims, and caffeine dilution is not presented as caffeine removal. Material errors are logged under the Editorial Standards & Review Policy.
