Advertising Disclosure

Our commitment to transparency

Encoras is committed to being transparent about any commercial relationships that may influence the content on this website. This page outlines the advertising and affiliate arrangements that may apply, in compliance with applicable guidelines including those of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and equivalent bodies in other jurisdictions.

Where a financial or material relationship exists that could influence content, we will always make this clear. The editorial integrity of our content is important to us.

1. Affiliate relationships

• From time to time, Encoras may participate in affiliate programmes. This means that if you click certain links and subsequently make a purchase or sign up for a service, Encoras may receive a commission or other compensation at no additional cost to you.
• Affiliate links will be clearly identified where they appear. The presence of an affiliate link does not influence whether a product or service is recommended — our assessments are based on genuine professional judgement.
• Encoras only maintains affiliate relationships with services or products that are considered genuinely useful in the context of performing arts finance and touring work.
• Compensation received through affiliate programmes does not affect the price you pay for any product or service.

2. Sponsored content

• Any content that has been paid for or otherwise sponsored by a third party will be clearly labelled as "Sponsored" or "In partnership with [brand]".
• While commercial arrangements may influence which topics are covered, they do not dictate the conclusions we reach. Sponsored content reflects our honest perspective.
• Brand partnerships and collaborations are entered into selectively and only where there is a genuine relevance to the performing arts and touring sector.

• Encoras does not control the content of third-party advertisements and is not responsible for the claims they make. If you have concerns about a specific advertisement, please contact us.
