Affiliate Disclosure

In plain terms: some links on KarelCar, such as “See listings near you” buttons and dealer links on our maps, are affiliate links. If you click one and then take an action on the partner’s site (for example, view or enquire about a listing, submit a lead or make a purchase), we may earn a commission. You never pay more because you used our link.

How affiliate links work here

We take part in affiliate programs run by automotive marketplaces, dealer networks and affiliate networks. These partners give us tracking links that tell them a visitor came from our site. Those links are marked with rel="sponsored", and pages that contain them say so near the link.

Our editorial independence

Commissions never affect our data. Reported problems, recall lists, crash-test ratings and reliability scores come from public NHTSA data and a fixed, published method (see how we score reliability). No partner can pay to change a score, remove a reported problem or rank higher on a page. If we ever publish sponsored content, it will be clearly labeled as sponsored.

FTC compliance

This disclosure follows the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 CFR Part 255), which require publishers to disclose any material connection with the businesses they link to.

Questions

If you have a question about a specific link or partnership, email support@karelcar.com or use our contact form. You can read more about how we handle data in our Privacy Policy.
