Affiliate Disclosure

Last Updated: July 8, 2026

At Auto Chart Guide, transparency is one of our core values. This Affiliate Disclosure explains how our website may earn revenue through affiliate partnerships and advertising, and how those relationships never influence our editorial decisions or the accuracy of our automotive content.

Amazon Associates Affiliate Program

Auto Chart Guide is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for websites to earn advertising fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated properties.

In plain terms: some pages on this site link to products on Amazon - tools, gauges, chargers, and parts related to the chart you're reading. If you click one of those links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission. This costs you nothing extra; the price you pay is the same whether you use our link or go to Amazon directly.

As an Amazon Associate, Auto Chart Guide earns from qualifying purchases.

Advertising and Third-Party Advertising

Alongside affiliate links, this site displays advertisements through partners like Google AdSense and, potentially in the future, Mediavine. Advertising revenue helps us maintain the website, research manufacturer data, update existing charts, and publish new automotive resources for our readers. You can read more about how these advertising partners handle data in our Privacy Policy.

Why This Doesn't Change What We Publish

This is the part that actually matters: affiliate commissions never influence which vehicles we cover, what numbers we publish, or how we present them.

A towing capacity chart, a tire spec table, or a torque value looks exactly the same whether the page happens to include an Amazon link or not. We don't inflate recommendations, cherry-pick products to promote, or shape a chart around what earns a commission. Every number on this site goes through the same sourcing and verification process described in our Editorial Policy - The same editorial standards apply whether or not a page contains affiliate links or advertising.

If we ever recommend a specific product, it's because it's genuinely relevant to the chart or task at hand - a torque wrench on a torque spec page, a battery charger on a battery chart - not because it pays the highest commission.

Editorial decisions are made independently and are never influenced by advertisers, affiliate programs, or potential commissions.

How Affiliate Revenue Supports Auto Chart Guide

Running a site like Auto Chart Guide takes real time: researching manufacturer documentation, cross-checking sources, writing clearly, and rechecking charts on a schedule instead of letting them go stale. Affiliate commissions and advertising are how we keep this sustainable without charging readers or compromising on accuracy. You can learn more about who's behind this work on our About Us page.

Our goal is to build a trustworthy automotive resource that remains free and accessible for everyone.

Do affiliate links cost me extra?

No. Purchasing through an affiliate link does not increase the price you pay.

Do affiliate commissions affect your reviews or charts?

No. Our editorial decisions and automotive data remain independent of affiliate relationships.

Why does Auto Chart Guide use affiliate links?

Affiliate commissions help support website maintenance, research, and the ongoing publication of accurate automotive charts.

Your Choice

You're never required to use our affiliate links. If you'd rather go straight to Amazon or another retailer on your own, that's completely fine - you'll still get full access to every chart on this site either way.
