Advertising Disclosure

Last updated: January 10, 2026

At Anchor, we believe in transparency about our business relationships and advertising practices. This Advertising Disclosure explains how we may receive compensation and how we handle sponsored content or affiliate relationships. We are committed to maintaining your trust by being open about these arrangements.

Our Commitment to Transparency

We value the trust you place in us when seeking legal advisory services. As part of this commitment, we ensure full transparency regarding any commercial relationships that may influence the content on our website or the recommendations we make.

All advertising relationships are clearly disclosed, and we maintain editorial independence in providing legal information and guidance. Our primary obligation is to serve your interests and provide objective, professional advice.

Professional Legal Services

Anchor is a professional legal advisory practice. Our primary source of revenue comes from the legal services we provide directly to our clients. These services include:

• Commercial contract drafting, review, and negotiation
• Business formation and governance guidance
• Intellectual property advice and protection
• General legal advisory for businesses

Fees for these services are clearly outlined in our engagement letters and are not influenced by any third-party advertising relationships.

Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships

From time to time, we may participate in affiliate programs or maintain partnerships with service providers that complement our legal advisory services. This means we may receive compensation if you engage with these partners through links or recommendations on our website.

Types of Affiliate Relationships

• Legal technology and document management services
• Business formation and compliance platforms
• Professional services that support business operations
• Educational resources and training providers

How Affiliate Compensation Works

When we recommend a product or service where an affiliate relationship exists:

• We may receive a commission or referral fee if you make a purchase
• The cost to you remains the same whether you use our link or not
• We only recommend services we believe may genuinely benefit our clients
• Affiliate relationships do not influence our core legal advice

Our Selection Criteria

We carefully evaluate any products or services before entering into affiliate relationships. Our recommendations are based on quality, reliability, relevance to business needs, and potential value to our clients. We do not promote services solely because they offer compensation.

Sponsored Content and Paid Promotions

Occasionally, we may feature sponsored content or paid promotions on our website. This could include:

• Sponsored articles or blog posts about relevant business topics
• Featured listings for complementary professional services
• Promotional content from business partners
• Banner advertisements or display advertising

Clear Labeling

All sponsored content is clearly identified with labels such as:

• "Sponsored Content" or "Paid Promotion"
• "Advertisement" or "Sponsored by [Brand Name]"
• "Partner Content" where applicable

These labels ensure you can easily distinguish between our regular content and paid promotional material.

Editorial Independence

While we may accept sponsored content, we maintain editorial control and ensure that all content meets our professional standards. Sponsored content does not influence our independent legal advice or recommendations to clients.

Third-Party Advertising Networks

We may use third-party advertising networks to display advertisements on our website. These networks may:

• Serve targeted advertisements based on your browsing behavior
• Use cookies and similar technologies to track ad performance
• Collect information about your visits to our site and other websites
• Provide interest-based advertising across multiple platforms

Advertising Cookies and Tracking

Third-party advertisers may use cookies and tracking technologies to:

• Measure ad effectiveness and campaign performance
• Deliver relevant advertisements based on your interests
• Limit the number of times you see the same advertisement
• Understand how users interact with advertisements

For more information about cookies and how to manage your preferences, please see our Cookie Policy.

Product and Service Recommendations

When we recommend products, services, or resources on our website:

• We base recommendations on genuine assessment of quality and value
• We disclose any financial relationship that may exist
• We provide honest evaluations, including both benefits and limitations
• We encourage you to conduct your own research before making decisions

Our recommendations are intended to be helpful resources, not comprehensive endorsements. You should evaluate whether any recommended product or service meets your specific needs.

Your Rights and Advertising Controls

You have several options for controlling your advertising experience:

Ad Preferences

• Adjust your browser settings to block cookies used for advertising
• Use browser extensions that limit ad tracking
• Opt out of interest-based advertising through industry opt-out tools
• Visit our Cookie Policy page to manage your cookie preferences

Opt-Out Procedures

To opt out of targeted advertising:

• Visit the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page
• Use the Digital Advertising Alliance's opt-out tool
• Adjust settings directly with major advertising platforms
• Enable "Do Not Track" in your browser settings

Impact of Opting Out

Opting out of targeted advertising does not mean you will see fewer advertisements. Instead, the advertisements you see may be less relevant to your interests. Opting out also does not affect non-advertising cookies or tracking used for analytics and website functionality.

Regulatory Compliance

We comply with applicable advertising regulations and guidelines, including:

• UK advertising standards and codes of practice
• Solicitors Regulation Authority requirements for legal advertising
• Consumer protection regulations regarding transparency
• Data protection requirements under UK GDPR

Our advertising practices are designed to be fair, transparent, and respectful of consumer rights.
