Advertising Disclosure
Routefig is committed to transparency about any commercial relationships that may influence content on this website. This page explains our practices in full. Last updated: March 2026.
Why This Disclosure Exists
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and equivalent regulatory bodies in many jurisdictions require that websites disclose any material connections between their content and commercial relationships. We believe this kind of transparency matters regardless of legal obligation — so we've made this information easy to find and straightforward to read.
This page applies to the Routefig website operated by Routefig. Our editorial choices are not for sale, and any commercial relationships we hold are identified clearly below.
Affiliate Relationships
Do We Participate in Affiliate Programmes?
From time to time, links on this website may be affiliate links — meaning that if you follow a link and subsequently make a purchase or sign up for a service, Routefig may receive a commission or other form of compensation. Where this is the case, it will be identified in proximity to the relevant link.
Does Affiliate Status Affect Our Recommendations?
Our approach to recommending tools, services, or resources is based on our assessment of their relevance and usefulness to the logistics and accounting sector. The existence of an affiliate relationship does not influence whether something is recommended — nor does the absence of one. If we mention something positively, it is because we believe it is worth mentioning.
Commission-Based Links
Any commission earned through affiliate links is used to support the operation of this website and does not alter the cost to you. Prices and terms are set by the third party and are not affected by our affiliate relationship.
Sponsored Content
Any content that has been produced as part of a paid arrangement — including sponsored articles, guest posts, or promoted material — will be clearly labelled as "Sponsored," "Paid Partnership," or with equivalent language at the top of the relevant page or section.
From time to time, Routefig may collaborate with third-party organisations on content. When this occurs, the nature of the relationship will be disclosed. Any collaborative content will accurately represent our genuine views and will not be used to mislead visitors.
Commercial relationships do not grant third parties editorial control over our content. All claims, recommendations, and assessments published on this site reflect our own assessment and are subject to the same standard of accuracy as non-sponsored material.
Third-Party Advertising
Display Advertising Networks
This website may use third-party advertising networks, including Google's advertising products. These networks may display advertisements on our pages. We do not control the content of these advertisements directly, but we have configured our account settings to avoid categories that conflict with our professional positioning.
Behavioural Targeting and Cookies
Third-party advertising networks may use cookies to serve ads based on your browsing behaviour across different websites. This is a common industry practice. You can manage whether these cookies are active on this site through our Cookie Policy page, where individual cookie types can be enabled or disabled.
Ad Personalisation Practices
Where advertising personalisation cookies are enabled, ad networks may use information about your interests, inferred from browsing activity, to show more relevant advertisements. If you prefer non-personalised ads, you can disable ad personalisation cookies at any time via the Cookie Policy page. Advertisements may still appear — they simply won't be tailored to inferred interests.
Your Rights and Controls
Managing Ad Preferences
You can adjust advertising-related cookie preferences through the Cookie Policy page at any time. Changes take effect immediately and apply to future tracking — not retroactively.
Opting Out of Ad Networks
Many advertising networks offer their own opt-out mechanisms. For Google advertising, you can manage preferences through Google's Ad Settings. Browser-level tools such as the NAI opt-out tool may also be available to you.
Data Collection for Advertising
Where advertising cookies are active, certain data — such as pages visited, time on site, and general location — may be shared with ad networks for campaign measurement. This data is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
Rights Under Privacy Regulations
Depending on your location, applicable regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, or similar frameworks may provide specific rights regarding advertising data. You may exercise any such rights through our contact form.
