22. VIOLATIONS
Please report any violations of the Terms of Use to our Support
Team.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) issued new rules that go into effect on December 1, 2009. These rules state that product reviewers on web sites must disclose whether they received products for free or received monetary payment for such reviews.
We only promote products and services which will be of help to our site visitors and, at our own discretion, may display reviews of products on our site which we've found or observed to be beneficial to those visitors.
We do not endorse any paid advertisements on catprep.com. All paid placements are clearly not endorsed and our advertising guidelines stipulate that no advertising will be accepted which implies endorsement from us.
This site generates some revenue from product sales and affiliate referral commissions. Outside of reviews, as stated above, no affiliated or advertised products are sold or endorsed directly on this site. We are not responsible for any claims made directly by advertisers or affiliates.
We may publish or re-publish reviews made by site visitors, and in those cases we do not claim endorsement, nor are we obligated to monitor or censure such reviews whether they are positive or negative.
Testimonials are shared only when their validity can be qualified to the best of our ability . We only share testimonials which we know to correlate with the typical or average result of customers who actually utilize the products or services.
We always strive to maintain objectivity - we believe that our direct experience with products or services that we review is the very best way to share information about those products with our visitors and members. We also strive to ensure the wording and claims of our own marketing is honest and represents the typical results of customers who actually utilize the products or services. The mere purchasing of our products or services without an active use of those products or services does not imply any guarantee or warrant on the results that customer will see any more than selling water will guarantee someone will diminish their thirst if they don't drink it. If you have any questions or concerns about this disclaimer and our review policies, please do not hesitate to contact us.
