Affiliate Disclosure

Last Updated: September 4, 2026

Transparency is important to us. This Affiliate Disclosure explains how affiliate marketing may be used on our website and how we may earn commissions when visitors click certain links or make qualifying purchases through third-party retailers or affiliate partners.

1. What Is an Affiliate Website?

ACDelcoTDSS.com is an independent informational and affiliate website.

We publish automotive content designed to help visitors research ACDelco, automotive parts, batteries, maintenance products, vehicle-related products, buying guides, comparisons, and other automotive resources.

Some of the links displayed on our website may be affiliate links.

An affiliate link is a special tracking link that allows a retailer, affiliate network, or commercial partner to identify that a visitor reached its website from our website.

If you click an affiliate link and subsequently complete a qualifying purchase or other qualifying action, we may receive a commission or other form of compensation.

2. How Affiliate Commissions Work

When you click an affiliate link on ACDelcoTDSS.com, the third-party website or affiliate network may use cookies or similar tracking technologies to record the referral.

If you make a qualifying purchase during the applicable tracking period, the affiliate program may attribute the sale to our website.

We may then receive a commission.

The commission is generally paid by the retailer, manufacturer, affiliate network, or other commercial partner and does not normally increase the price you pay.

The amount and availability of commissions may vary depending on the affiliate program, product, retailer, promotional terms, and qualifying action.

3. Our Affiliate Relationships

ACDelcoTDSS.com may participate in one or more affiliate programs.

Affiliate relationships may include retailers, online marketplaces, automotive product sellers, advertising partners, affiliate networks, and other commercial websites.

We may add or remove affiliate relationships over time.

Not every external link on our website is necessarily an affiliate link.

Some links may simply direct visitors to an external informational resource without generating compensation for us.

4. ACDelco and General Motors

ACDelcoTDSS.com is not the official website of ACDelco or General Motors.

ACDelco is a General Motors brand.

General Motors, ACDelco, related product names, trademarks, logos, service marks, and other intellectual property belong to their respective owners.

Our use of ACDelco product and brand names is intended for identification, informational, editorial, comparison, and product research purposes.

We do not claim to represent, operate, manage, sponsor, or speak on behalf of ACDelco or General Motors.

Our affiliate relationships, if any, should not be interpreted as an endorsement or official partnership with ACDelco or General Motors unless specifically stated.

5. Product Recommendations

We may publish:

Product reviews
Buying guides
Product comparisons
Product roundups
Automotive recommendations
Battery guides
Parts research
Maintenance information
Product feature summaries

Some of these pages may contain affiliate links.

Our goal is to provide useful information that helps readers research products and make their own purchasing decisions.

However, the presence of an affiliate link does not guarantee that a product is the best choice for every visitor.

Individual needs, vehicle compatibility, budget, product availability, and preferences may differ.

6. Affiliate Compensation Does Not Guarantee Product Quality

Receiving an affiliate commission does not mean that we guarantee the quality, performance, durability, compatibility, availability, or suitability of a product.

Products are supplied, sold, shipped, and supported by the applicable third-party retailer, manufacturer, or seller.

We encourage readers to independently verify important information before purchasing.

This may include:

Product specifications
Vehicle compatibility
Part numbers
Battery specifications
Pricing
Availability
Warranty information
Shipping costs
Return policies

The retailer or manufacturer should be considered the authoritative source for current product and transaction information.

7. Prices and Availability

Product prices and availability may change at any time.

Prices displayed on ACDelcoTDSS.com may not represent the current price available from a third-party retailer.

Promotions, discounts, coupons, inventory, shipping costs, taxes, and other purchase conditions may also change without notice.

The final price and purchase terms are determined by the retailer or seller at checkout.

We are not responsible for changes to third-party pricing, inventory, promotions, shipping, or purchasing policies.

8. Third-Party Websites

When you click an affiliate link, you may leave ACDelcoTDSS.com and visit a third-party website.

Third-party websites have their own:

Terms and conditions
Privacy policies
Cookies
Tracking technologies
Product policies
Return policies
Warranty policies
Customer service procedures

We do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their content, security, products, services, transactions, or privacy practices.

You should review the policies of the third-party website before providing personal information or completing a purchase.

9. Purchases and Customer Service

ACDelcoTDSS.com generally does not process product purchases directly.

If you purchase a product after clicking a link on our website, the transaction is normally completed with the third-party retailer or seller.

For questions concerning an order, please contact the retailer directly.

This includes questions about:

Order status
Payment
Shipping
Returns
Refunds
Exchanges
Warranty claims
Damaged products
Product defects
Customer service

We do not control third-party order systems or fulfillment processes.

10. Editorial Independence

Affiliate relationships do not mean that every product will receive a positive recommendation.

We aim to create useful and informative content based on product information, available specifications, intended use, compatibility considerations, and other relevant factors.

Where appropriate, we may discuss both advantages and limitations of products.

However, our content represents general informational and editorial opinions and should not be considered a guarantee of product performance.

11. No Additional Cost to You

In most cases, clicking an affiliate link does not add an additional cost to your purchase.

The retailer generally pays the affiliate commission.

However, the exact commercial terms depend on the applicable affiliate program.

You should always review the final price displayed by the retailer before completing your purchase.

12. Affiliate Tracking Cookies

Affiliate links may use cookies or similar tracking technologies.

These technologies may help affiliate networks or retailers determine whether a purchase originated from our website.

Cookies may also be used by third-party websites for analytics, advertising, personalization, security, and other purposes.

You can manage cookies through your web browser or other available privacy controls.

Disabling certain cookies may affect affiliate tracking or other website functionality.

For more information about cookies and data practices on ACDelcoTDSS.com, please review our Privacy Policy.

13. Advertising and Other Compensation

In addition to affiliate commissions, ACDelcoTDSS.com may potentially receive compensation from other commercial relationships, such as advertising, sponsored content, partnerships, or promotional opportunities.

If applicable, we will make reasonable efforts to clearly identify sponsored or paid content where required.

Commercial compensation does not necessarily mean that a product or service is suitable for every visitor.

14. Why We Use Affiliate Links

Affiliate marketing helps support the operation and development of ACDelcoTDSS.com.

Commissions may help cover expenses associated with:

Website hosting
Content creation
Research
Website maintenance
Technical services
Editorial development
Website improvements

Affiliate revenue allows us to continue publishing automotive information and product research resources for visitors.

15. Accuracy of Product Information

We make reasonable efforts to provide useful and accurate product information.

However, product specifications, pricing, compatibility, availability, warranties, and retailer policies may change.

We do not guarantee that information displayed on our website will always be complete, current, or error-free.

Before purchasing an automotive product, verify important details with the applicable manufacturer or retailer.

16. Vehicle Compatibility

Automotive products are often vehicle-specific.

If you are researching ACDelco parts, batteries, or other automotive products, always verify compatibility using your vehicle’s exact information.

This may include:

Year
Make
Model
Engine
Trim
Part number
Battery group size
Original equipment specifications

Do not rely solely on an article title, product image, or general description when determining whether a part is appropriate for your vehicle.

17. No Official Brand Relationship

The use of the term ACDelco throughout our website does not mean that ACDelco or General Motors operates or endorses ACDelcoTDSS.com.

We are an independent website providing informational and affiliate content.

Any affiliate relationship should be understood separately from ownership of the ACDelco brand.

18. FTC Disclosure

We aim to disclose material affiliate relationships clearly and conspicuously.

Where our website contains affiliate links, we may earn compensation if you make a qualifying purchase after clicking a link.
