Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: 2026 | Website: hygienecheck.net | Owner: James Wilson

Our Commitment to Transparency

At Hygienecheck (hygienecheck.net), we believe that honesty and transparency are the foundation of any trustworthy review website. This page exists to clearly explain the commercial relationships we maintain and how they interact with the editorial content you read on this site. We encourage every visitor to read this disclosure carefully before relying on any recommendations or reviews published here.

What Is an Affiliate Relationship?

Some of the links on hygienecheck.net are affiliate links. This means that when you click on a link to a betting site or casino operator featured on our pages, and you subsequently register an account or make a deposit, Hygienecheck may receive a financial commission from that operator. This commission is paid by the operator directly and comes at no additional cost to you as the user.

Affiliate partnerships are a standard and widely used practice across review and comparison websites. They allow us to fund the research, testing, and writing that goes into producing detailed, useful content for our readers.

How Affiliate Links Work

You click a link on hygienecheck.net that directs you to a third-party betting or casino operator.
A tracking cookie or unique referral code records that you arrived via our website.
If you complete a qualifying action, such as registering or depositing, the operator pays Hygienecheck a commission.
The price you pay, the bonus you receive, and your overall experience as a player are not affected in any way by this arrangement.

Does This Affect Our Reviews?

No. Our affiliate relationships do not influence the content, ratings, or recommendations published on Hygienecheck. James Wilson, the owner and primary author of this website, operates under a strict editorial policy that separates commercial interests from review integrity. Every non Gamstop betting site reviewed on this website is assessed on its own merits, regardless of whether an affiliate agreement exists with that operator.

Sites that perform poorly in our evaluation process are reviewed critically and honestly, even when an affiliate relationship is in place. Equally, some highly rated operators on this site may not carry affiliate links at all. Our editorial decisions are driven by the quality of the operator, not the size of any potential commission.

Our Review Methodology

James Wilson has spent several years researching and evaluating online betting and casino operators available to UK users, with a specific focus on platforms operating outside the Gamstop self-exclusion scheme. Each review on hygienecheck.net is based on the following criteria:

Licensing and regulatory standing – we verify that each operator holds a legitimate licence from a recognised authority.
Security and fair play – we assess encryption standards, RNG certifications, and responsible gambling tools.
Bonuses and terms – we read and evaluate wagering requirements, withdrawal conditions, and promotional fairness.
Payment methods – we examine deposit and withdrawal options, processing times, and associated fees.
User experience – we evaluate site design, mobile performance, and customer support quality.
Reputation – we review player feedback and historical complaint records from trusted third-party sources.

FTC Compliance Statement

In accordance with the guidelines published by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regarding endorsements and testimonials, and in alignment with UK consumer protection standards enforced by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), Hygienecheck clearly discloses all material connections to operators featured on this site. Any content that may lead to a commercial transaction is identified or covered by the terms of this disclosure page.
