DISCLOSURE

Affiliate Disclosure

This page states plainly whether any tool, suggestion, or link on ToolsForCyber involves a paid placement, a commission, or an affiliate relationship — and what that would mean if it ever did.

Current status (last reviewed September 2026): no active affiliate links

ToolsForCyber does not currently use affiliate links or participate in affiliate programs.

Why this page exists anyway

Sites that review or recommend products often earn a commission when a visitor clicks through and buys something. When a material commercial relationship exists, it should be clearly disclosed, including where required by applicable law — in the US, for example, the FTC requires clear and conspicuous disclosure of material connections, including affiliate commissions. ToolsForCyber doesn't currently have one, but this page exists so that's a plain, checkable statement rather than an assumption — and so that if this ever changes, the change is disclosed here directly rather than introduced quietly.

If this ever changes

If ToolsForCyber ever does add an affiliate link, a sponsorship, or any paid placement, three things would hold regardless:

  • It would be disclosed on this page, updated to reflect the actual, current relationship — not a vague or outdated statement.
  • Any sponsored or commissioned link would be clearly marked as such at the point where you'd encounter it, not just buried here.
  • It would never influence what a tool calculates, parses, or reports. A CVSS score, a hash, a parsed User-Agent, or any other tool's output is determined entirely by the input you give it and the specification or algorithm the tool implements — never by which link might earn a commission.

Frequently asked questions

Does ToolsForCyber run ads?

No third-party advertising network domain appears in this site's own Content-Security-Policy (CSP) header, sent on every page — you can inspect it yourself in your browser's developer tools. Google Tag Manager's own domain is allowlisted for scripts, with a real container ID configured, and a separate, narrower part of that same policy allows each tool's own specific data requests (e.g. to DNS resolvers or HaveIBeenPwned) — two different, independent restrictions, not one combined list. That said, a CSP only controls which domains are allowed to load scripts at all; it can't by itself prove what a tag management system's own external dashboard is configured to load within an already-allowlisted domain, since that configuration lives outside this codebase entirely, in Google's own Tag Manager dashboard. The plain fact remains simpler: no ad network is currently configured to load here.

Do you accept payment to feature or favorably review a product?

No tool on this site currently reviews or ranks third-party products at all — each tool performs a specific, narrow technical task (parsing, calculating, generating, or looking something up), rather than recommending or comparing commercial products.

How does this relate to the site's Privacy Policy?

This page covers commercial relationships and paid links specifically. See the Privacy Policy for how data is (and isn't) collected and used.

I think I found a link that looks like an affiliate link. What should I do?

Let us know via the Contact page with the specific page and link — given the current status above, that would be worth investigating directly.
